More Heartless Reaction From Conservatives To Another Obama Supporter's Death!

We at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Alex Okrent. The reaction to the death of Okrent has conservatives riled up with hate. They're commenting online with hate-filled rhetoric towards his death and attacking President Barack Obama in the process.

Sheesh!

This is the United States, a country that shows compassion towards our fellow man!

In the wacky world of conservatism, an Obama supporter dying is a celebration for those heartless bigots of the Republican Party.

Another tragedy in the Midwest. A 29 year old Obama supporter from the main headquarters in Chicago, died today. The president and Republican candidate Mitt Romney both send their condolences to the family of this gentleman.

Alex Okrent, the Obama campaign's communication operation adviser collapsed. He was at the president's campaign headquarters in Chicago, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

After he collapsed, Chicago paramedics were called to the Obama headquarters in the Prudential Building where he was given emergency treatment. Okrent was then taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

A staffer in President Barack Obama's campaign office collapsed in the Chicago headquarters and died Friday, campaign officials said.

The president later spoke with other campaign staffers in a conference call. 


Okrent was a veteran of two earlier Obama campaigns, having worked on the president's 2008 campaign, and his 2004 Senate bid before that. Okrent was employed in the campaign's paid media department at the time of his death.

"Obama was campaigning in southern Virginia this afternoon, when he learned about Okrent's death," according to USA Today. The president reportedly offered his condolences to Okrent's family during a phone conversation shortly thereafter, and addressed his Chicago staff about the tragedy on a conference call.

The White House pool report added:

Alex Okrent, 29, had worked with the Obama team since 2004.

Traveling in Virginia on Friday, Obama called Okrent's family to express condolences.

Now let's go to the reaction from conservatives.

I was going to post some of the most outrageous comments from the Chicago Sun-Times, but alas, they've turned it off! They've realized that The Drudge Report was linking their story and these assholes were commenting with hateful rhetoric.
