Jim Bob Duggar: "You Go First"
The tension has mounted between the Duggars and Terry McAuliffe, Democrat candidate for Virginia governor, but America's most well-known super-sized family is holding fast to its convictions.
At a news conference on NBC12 News Richmond, Jim Bob Duggar, whose family spent the first half of the week in Virginia campaigning for Republican candidate Ken Cuccinelli, urged McAuliffe to drop out of the race due to a scandal involving the exploitation of senior citizens and terminally ill patients . (Click here to watch the news segment.)
McAuliffe responded with a request that the Duggars "leave Virginia." Josh and Jim Bob each released counter statements:
Josh Duggar, Executive Director of FRC Action:
"We are incredulous that a candidate for public office in the United States of America would employ tactics to silence someone who disagrees with him. Asking someone to leave the state because they are supporting your opponent is unbelievably offensive. This latest tactic is an example of the way Terry McAuliffe handles people who disagree with him. The school yard bullying and rude statements he's making today won't sit well with Virginia voters.
He is trying to distract from the news of his investment in an elaborate scheme to rip-off senior citizens and terminally-ill patients, where he raked in thousands of dollars from bereaving families. This man has never been elected to any public office and he definitely isn't fit to serve."
Jim Bob Duggar:
"It's unbelievable that Terry McAuliffe is requesting that my family 'leave Virginia' when we are exercising our freedom of speech. Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli has been an advocate for families and our values for many years. His immature request for those who are helping his opponent's campaign shows that he is desperate to distract from the scandal of how he defrauded the loved ones of terminally ill patients.
Terry McAuliffe is upset that we are from out of state. Well, so is he. McAuliffe should simply let the voters decide rather than bullying my family out the state. We are asking that Terry McAuliffe drop out of the race immediately because he is unfit for any public office. Terry McAuliffe has responded by asking that we leave the state. We say, 'You go first.'"
