There's the Lowest Common Denominator, and then there's the Tea Party.
Milton Wolf, the Kansas Republican who is challenging Pat Roberts in this year's Senate primary, admitted Sunday he made "mistakes" by posting and commenting on gruesome X-ray photographs of medical patients, including fatal gunshot wound victims, on Facebook.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reported Saturday that Wolf, a radiologist, posted the questionable photos to the social media site in 2010. The Capital-Journal reports:
Wolf and others viewing these Facebook postings relentlessly poked fun at the dead or wounded. The gunshot victim, Wolf joked online, wasn't going to complain about the awkward positioning of his head for an X-ray. In a separate Facebook comment, Wolf wrote that an X-ray of a man decapitated by gunfire resembled a wounded alien in a "Terminator" film and that the image offered evidence people "find beauty in different things."
Wolf declined in an interview with The Topeka Capital-Journal to clearly answer questions about whether he continued to place images of deceased people on the Internet. He asked to keep copies of the Facebook posts shown to him, but when denied, he walked away.
"I'm not going to play these kinds of gotcha games," he said.
Wolf addressed the story in a Sunday statement, describing the report as a "character assassination" by Roberts, his Republican rival.
