Rick Perry wants to lynch Bernanke?

Monetarism is now 'almost treasonous' according to candidate Rick Perry.  His comments on Fed Chairman (and Bush appointee) continued: "[if he] prints more money between now and the election, I don't know what y'all would do to him in Iowa, but we would treat him pretty ugly down in Texas."

Is that an endorsement of lynching?  We've come a long way if the brainchild of Milton Friedman and Alan Greenspan has now become so anathema to Tea Partiers that elected officials are musing about mob justice.
