Where's your leaders, GOP?

The latest singer to sing a song against the President is Hank Williams Jr., who says that the President is a Muslim and a Kenyan. This is after the lead singer for Megadeth stated that the President had staged the recent shootings in Colorado and the Sikh mosque. So where is the condemnation from the leaders of the GOP? Is it that they they are just entertainers? Now imagine that a Hollywood actor said that the GOP legislators that had enacted laws that stifled votes and took away women's rights were this century's version of the KKK. That just like them, these legislators wanted to put certain people in their place, take away their rights, and enforce their religious views through legislation and intimidation. Then when asked, President Obama, or Vice-President Biden, or Senator Reid, or Representative Pelosi said that while they disagreed with the actor's feelings, it wasn't their place to correct him or her. Think Fox News and all the radio pundits like Rush wouldn't rip them apart? Think it wouldn't lead most of the newscasts on all the stations? So where are the GOP leaders on this? Oh, that's right, they won't even admonish their own people in Congress like Rep. Bachmann and West who spout such lies. And to top it off, the actor would be telling more of the truth than the right-wing singers.
