Makes you wonder what he's so afraid of, what's going on in his life, to overreact like that. He already seemed pissed, just when they said "Hi, Congressman" he snarled at them. Walking along with his head down, scowling.... yeesh.
It should be happening because if that were you and I we would be facing charges.
He was defensive from the start but that isnt an excuse.
Further more where does he get that he has a right to know that students name?

Um, I didnt say it was an excuse, at all.
I edited my post since you quoted it: "Makes you wonder what he was expecting, what's going on in his life, to overreact like that. 'Who are you? Who are you?'"
He was expecting some sort of expose-type ambush, didnt it seem?
Nope it is you who injected race my friend. This kid asked one question having nothing to do with race, and you assume he is racist.
I do appreciate your comments as they do serve to bump the thread, the more people who see the assault the better. Thanks for the help!
I'm not your friend pal. I'm your worse nightmare. I'm the right-wings worse nightmare. I'm those punks making the videos worse nightmare. I want the republicans and sarah palin to get everything they wish for. That will be the only way to wake up thug wannabes and gold tooth rappers. Keep up the good work spread it all you want. Create that hateful world for your children.

I didnt say you did just stating my own opinion. There is no excuse for his behavior or putting his hands on a student asking him a question.
I think that the defensive because he just didnt want to be questioned.

Wonder? No. The Dems are having a much harder time in the current political climate than the MSM is reporting. As this congressman's reaction shows, Dems are pretty damn near the breaking point. Being associated with Obama is a huge fat stinking albatross around their necks.
The best part is that the student still refers to the "honorable" gentleman as sir. This is likely the end of Etheridge's political career and the Republicans could run anyone and still win. Mayor John Street got away with old footage like this in the Philly area because my old hometown city loves union thugs and brute force to solve "problems". This will not resonate well with a conservative region that sees someone getting assaulted because of a question regarding the "Obama agenda".

Ummm... your posts are the most hateful in this thread.

Well he's going to be investigated now like he never was before!
That was really ugly that scene. It looked like it wasnt an unfamiliar approach for him -- like he just does this when he loses his temper. A physically violent bully.
He is a boorish left wing troll with nothing but the race card.What race was the camera man? I am entertained that he is so belligerent and intellectually dishonest he does not realize what a ass he is making of himself.Wonder if anyone would stoop to join his defense, is their others that can go that low?
