Much has been made in the last week about positions supported and comments made by U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Georgia, who represents the northwest corner of the Peach State, just across the state line from Chattanooga.
In one instance, she “liked” a post that mentioned something about a “bullet to the head” being a quick way to remove U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-California.
Many of the comments and support were made months before she entered a race for Congress that year, not that it excuses them.
Let us say at the outset that had this page endorsed a candidate in Georgia’s 14th Congressional District Republican primary, it wouldn’t have been Greene.
In the first place, we didn’t appreciate her opportunism for jumping from the 6th District race she’d originally declared for to the 14th because she thought it looked easier to win. The rules, in fact, allow candidates to run in districts in which they do not live. They only must live in the same state. Nevertheless, we believe it is in bad form to do so.
