I am here with two sons and a daughter. We saw the incident. These guys walked through he crowd and into the House office building (Canon building) and where greeted only with hundreds of people waiting in line to go in who began screaming KILL THE BILL. No spitting. Someone is lying. John Voight was also there walking down the street and receiving many bless yous and thank yous. The crowds of 50-75,000 where very loud and angry for what it is happening to our country, but we left no trash, called no one any racial names, brought no rope, used no bad language and broke no laws. There were many cries of “traitor” “sell out” “liar” an other true and appropriate descriptions of what these scumbags are doing- during the rally. Non of this happened at the house office building incident. Kill the Bill where the only words spoken. The gloves are off, it is time to call a liar a liar. The left spits, they are children. We just tell the truth and we will take this country back from these dangerous people. We are here tomorrow- if you can get here- come. This is the fight, it is not enough to sit at home typing your complaints. It is battle. Come.

I could not hear all 50, 75, or 100,000 people but that was not the sentiment of the day. Very vocal but I heard no N words anywhere all day. I never even heard Barney’s name mentioned, he is probably disappointed in that and chipped a nail.

It is sad to see that you are so quick to believe the lying press. They also say there were 2000 people here. We ate lunch with more than 2000! It is a lie. The event is NOT tarnished thank you very much. YOU should have been here. It was a blessing and the people handled themselves like they have on every occasion in the capitol. I am proud to be standing with them.

Third time, I was there, 10 feet away. It never happened. Kill the bill chant only. Believe your fellow patriots, not the Obama Press.

I never said I believed them. Pleas don’t put words in my mouth.

Regardless if the report is true or not the ‘tactic’ is what I am speaking too. No matter who does it. Be it spitting on others or calling them names ... it is reprehensible to me.

The press have “made” the news for 40-odd years now rather than reporting it. I know that. I’ve actually lived during it and through it.

As I said I was the recipient of it years ago and even today I still don’t like it.

NO THEY DIDN’T! The police never left their cars they were leaning on because there was no reason to.

I was there today as well. These accusations are obviously contrived, self-serving and completely unsubstantiated. Basically what you’d expect from a leftist Dem.

Where? I saw the crowd of about 12 teenage black kids walking by the crowd about 15 minutes before Cleaver, and across the street on the capitol lawn- THEY were taunting the crowd with a chant:”what do we want? Health Care! When do we want it? Now!” One dude in a wheel chair tried to reason with them but they kept walking and just yelled louder. Where were the whities taunting them?

Agree with everything you said. I was there from 12 to 6. Also think you crowd estimate is about right. There were enough people on the West Lawn to easily fill a large football stadium.

Where?

It was up on the South East side of the Capitol, They had exited the East side and were walking across to the office building at the top of the hill. This was the same path Obama's SSuv's used to sneak into the Capitol at about 2:30. Unfortunately he left using the senate entrance and the, by then, much larger crowd did not get the chance to confront him.

Pssst, Conservative 9 ....

I don’t give a rats A** if it did or didn’t happen.

The action itself irritates and really dismays me on the state of American politics and dissent.

Thanks for clearing that up. The AP article/OP said that he had been arrested. Guess we won’t be able to track down his identity then.

“Individual doing the spitting was wrong and in some ways tarnishes the reason for this event.”

When you said that, sounded like you were going with the press. Let’s not you and me fight about it, I understand your point just don’t want Freeps tarnishing the event by running with msm lies. It was an event you would have been proud of. Frankly, and you wont like this, I thing these traitors are getting off easy for what they are doing to our country. AND, if the succeed, they may have to worry about more than spitting. They have declared war on the constitution, liberty, personal freedom, and personal responsibility which was exercised today by not spitting.
