Hoffa Comments And Standards Going Forward: One for Obama and another for Republicans

Part of the headline lifted from something written by Ace of Spades in regards to a video where ABC's Jake Tapper tenaciously tries to pin down a "standard" of whether candidates/politicians are responsible to avow or disavow comments made by others at an event said candidate/politician attends if it is offensive.

Video below-



The rhetoric in question was said by Teamsters union President Jimmy Hoffa, Jr. at a Labor Day event in which President Obama later delivered a speech:

Hoffa Jr. said during his speech that unions need to fight a “war” against tea partiers and congressional Republicans.

“President Obama, this is your army,” he declared. “We are ready to march. Let’s take these sons of bitches out and take America back to where America we belong.”
