Todd Kincannon: At It Again

Former S.C. Republican Party official Todd Kincannon is back in the news this week, firing up his critics on the left with a tweet stating it was a “shame” than an anti-war veteran “didn’t come home in a body bag.” Not only that, Kincannon made it clear what he hoped…

Former S.C. Republican Party official Todd Kincannon is back in the news this week, firing up his critics on the left with a tweet stating it was a “shame” than an anti-war veteran “didn’t come home in a body bag.”

Not only that, Kincannon made it clear what he hoped would happen to the soldier – self-described socialist Mike Prysner – in the event he was ever deployed again.

“I hope if that guy is ever in combat again, the enemy splatters his brain JFK-style,” Kincannon wrote. “He deserves it.”

Ouch …

The latest Kincannon drama – recapped here by The Daily Beast‘s Eliza Shapiro – has prompted all sorts of outcry, including a petition to protect U.S. soldiers from fascist commentary from the right (you know, as opposed to fascist deployments from the left).

Kincannon, a prominent Columbia, S.C. attorney who brands himself as “the Honey Badger of American politics,” has been manufacturing these sorts of scandals a lot lately. Which begs the question … is that evidence of his own depravity? Or evidence of a culture that’s dying to be offended?

“Kincannon tweets morning, noon and night – sometimes all night long,” we wrote the last time he got in trouble. “And he’s almost always tweeting with an eye on creating precisely the sort of controversy in which he is currently engaged.”

Exactly … and the more the left seeks to vilify him for that, the more Twitter followers he racks up.

Ironically, real “Republicans” ought to be embracing Prysner’s anti-imperialism (although not his socialism). After all, warmongering on behalf of a hopelessly inefficient military industrial complex is about the furthest thing from “limited government” we can think of.

In fact some might even call that fascist …

I’m not offended. He’s just another moron masquerading as a fascist. LOOK AT ME!!! I SAY OBNOXIOUS SHIT!!!

And give me a break on the “outrage” bullshit. The conservative movement in general and this site in particular live on a steady diet of manufactured outrage.

He’s nothing but a troll, but it goes to show just how much of a douchebag he really is. Lowest of the low.

Sadly some Americans are as bad for this country as the Taliban or Al Quieda…There are many who even post on here who hate this country as much as our worst enemies…

I may not be as harsh as this poster…but you likely hate America as much as he loves it…and you know Obama, treating returning soldiers as terrorists, hates our best…while coddling the most disgusting, like Rev. Wright and Cop Killer Rappers…

Todd is my friend, BigT. Whatever anyone says about him, he has the balls to tweet what he tweets under his own name, with his own photo as an avatar. Something a chickenshit armchair patriot like you will NEVER do. So take your preaching at everybody else and stick it where the sun don’t shine!

Calling Kincannon a a prominent Columbia, S.C attorney is a bit of a stretch. Ambulance chaser is more like it. Kincannon is completely worthless- he and his arrogant attitude need to just go away and stay away. He serves no useful purpose.

Calling him an ambulance chaser gives ambulance chasers a bad name. He’s a disgrace to attorneys, he’s a disgrace to the Republican party, he’s a disgrace to home schooled kids, he’s a disgrace to South Carolinians. And he’s a Clemson graduate (they already suck, so no disgrace there).
