Anyone else seeing the resurgence of intolerance, bigotry and an overall lack of humanity amongst the Tea Party thugs (aka the bastards of the Right)? Its like Jim Crow all over again.
Paul was already in the building, surrounded by law enforcement officers, before the campaign workers attacked her--she was nowhere near him. They're nothing but thugs. It's disgusting, but you know what's a million times worse? Even attempting to make an excuse for this. I'm about as horrified as I've ever been. If this is what the tea party (meaning republicans) want to stand for, then I'm volunteering full time at my Democratic party headquarters from now until election night. Shame on you all.
I'd rep you but I can't. Couldn't have said better....

In an earlier post, someone said she was tackled as soon as she got near the moving car. Here you assert he was already in the building. Of course, neither is correct. Did you people even bother to watch the video? She was pushed away from the vehicle when she first tried to get to the window. She then circled the vehicle, and charged from BEHIND Paul as he was walking from the vehicle to the building. This is really undebatable. It's right there on the video.

Reason: typos
And so for that she deserves to have her head snapped off by a man's heavy boot?
Of course not. But then again if you move in an attacking way and you get subdued, don't get all melodramatic over it. Should they have just let her rush Paul and then see what would happen? I think it's more likely the people would react just as they did. Which is the basis behind the whole Republicorp idea from MoveOn.org. You know they're waiting for reactions so they can just be "returning the fire."

What? Are you trying to be dishonest or have you not seen the video of her literally inches away from Paul?

Did we watch the same video? In the one I saw, the one that's been posted here on this thread, she was shoved to the ground by a mans sneakered foot on her shoulder/neck. Please, go ahead and post the one where her head is snapped off by a booted foot. I've not sen that one.

Minutes later she was giving an interview. It wasn't till almost two hours later that she realized she should be acting like she was hurt. Good ole vote harvesting season...
I have yet to see any bigotry of tea party members.
I know the raving left is scared of the TP movement because even the TP members OUTNUMBER the liberals in America.
Is this all the libs have to keep this lame story going and not be focusing on how great your hero Obama and your heros Pelosi and Reid are doing?
Focus on the accomplishments of your party, afterall it is election time and you have nothing good to post about your heros?
This lady is a proven thug, she has an arrest record and should not have rushed the car or the candidate like she did.
Alinksy would be proud of the liberals trying change the subject from having such a horrific record and driving this country into a ditch like they have.
Next lame subject please.
