Mike Gravel Urges Stalking of Federal Prosecutor

Not really, but I’m reminded why I find Fox news more amusing than anything else.

From FOX

Former Democratic presidential candidate Mike Gravel was caught on tape last week telling a crowd in Washington, D.C., that they should harass a federal prosecutor who helped bring criminal contempt charges against a Palestinian activist.

In the tape, Gravel can be heard telling people to pressure Gordon Kromberg, an assistant U.S. attorney in the eastern district of Virginia, to drop the charges against Sami Al-Arian.

“Find out where he lives, find out where his kids go to school, find out where his office is, picket him all the time,” Gravel said, in an audio tape obtained by the Investigative Project on Terrorism and provided to FOX News.

“Call him a racist in signs if you see him. Call him an injustice. Call him whatever you want to call him, but in his face all the time.”

Read the full story here.

As the former press secretary for Senator Gravel during his Presidential run, I’m kind of face-palming here. But then I’m reminded that it’s Fox News.

Anyway, you can catch Mike on The O’Reily factor tomorrow at 8 PM EST.

Poster is no longer a paid staffer of Mike Gravel’s.
