WWE Political Smackdown! Jim Cornette takes Joey Styles to the mat
for his idiotic tweets against President Obama.

Perhaps in response to a ten minute rant Jim Cornette did earlier this week concerning Joey Styles' political views for the Who's Slamming Who podcast (which you can listen to at whosslammingwho.podomatic.com), the former ECW announcer has posted some more anti-Barack Obama statements on his Twitter account (twitter.com/wwejoeystyles).

Yesterday morning, he posted the following three "Tweets" within a ten minute span:

"Our marxist president is in the Middle East apologizing for for the USA and snubbing Israel. The disgrace continues."

"Obama hid from his middle name, Hussein, during the election and now brags about how many Muslims live in America. He's a fraud."

"By the way, he used taxpayer money to turn ownership of Chrysler and GM to the UAW which donated millions to his campaign. That's a payoff!"

Four hours later, he released the following message:
"I just want to make clear that the passionate political commentary posted here is mine personally and not in any way those of WWE, Inc."


These remarks were echoed by Hannity.

Anyway, the great Jim Cornette had a great response to this and all of PBO critics-PLEASE GO LISTEN TO IT!!! It is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!!!!!!!

1. LOL, as a former fan of wrestling, I would have thought Styles a liberal and Cornette a Conservative
Amazing.

2. Wow! That was the best rant on politics in this country that I've ever heard.
Cornette laid out the whole thing and didn't pull any punches. That was great! Thanks for posting.
