Fox's Uma Pemmaraju asks Rep. Steve King if he's considering throwing his name in the hat for the Republican 2012 presidential primary race. Even he looked shocked after Pemmaraju told him his name was being "tossed around there" as a potential candidate. Tossed around by whom?

I guess since in our media, if you're a Republican, there's no such thing as being punished for making one bats**t crazy racist statement after the other; even if they've been recorded and put out there in the public domain for all the world to see; so why the hell shouldn't King be considered presidential material? If Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich are considered serious presidential candidates, add this wingnut to the list as well, although he doesn't appear to be interested. Maybe we can get Michele Bachmann to run as well. Give the public a full dose of the crazy when they watch those primary debates.
