Jason Mattera roughed up by Harry Reid’s goons, Pelosi ducks and Lerner gets what she deserves

mattera roughed up

Jason Mattera is a conservative activist who has written several books including Hollywood Hypocrites, Obama Zombies and Crapitalsim. He frequently appears on Bill O'Reilly's show. He's been doing some great work and everyone ought to know about it. he confronted Harry Reid to ask Reid how he, while serving in public office nearly his entire life, became a millionaire several times over. Reid refused to respond and his security detail roughed Mattera up. Watch:

Mattera proved that Lois Lerner, the IRS official who targeted conservatives for harassment by the IRS, really, really does not like being targeted herself.

“Her exclusive interview with Politico was anything but reticent and reserved. In it, Ms. Lerner said she did nothing wrong and considers herself the victim,” writes Forbes’ Robert W. Wood. “Yet in a curious turn of events, journalist and Crapitalism author Jason Mattera showed up in her nice Bethesda neighborhood to pepper her with questions. They included such zingers as ‘Do you feel bad about turning the government into a weapon to crush political dissent?'”

What’s become interesting about Matter’s video of Lois Lerner is how some people, like conservative and Fox News host Greg Gutfeld, are saying it was overboard and may engender sympathy for Lerner.

“But being hounded and asked questions of this sort cannot be entirely unexpected and may not even be unfair, especially after Ms. Lerner’s exclusive interview with Politico,” Wood said.

Either way, Matters insists that “this is the job of the media to go after people who have abused their status as a public servant.”

And he’s absolutely correct.

Watch the fun:

Forbes said Lerner had a "Terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day."

The neighbor whose house Lerner tried to bust into didn't want her in:

“Could you call the police?” Ms. Lerner begs the woman while pounding on the door. “Please let me in. These guys are with the press and they’re not leaving me alone. I only need to come in for a second. Can I go in the garage?”

“What are you doing here?” an elderly man asks from behind as he approaches his front door.

“She’s trying to get in your house, she doesn’t want to answer questions,” Mr. Mattera explains.

“I don’t want her in the house,” the man says.

“I know you don’t,” Ms. Lerner says to the man as she pats him on the shoulder and rushes back down the hill.

Before the video ends, Ms. Lerner is seen walking up another neighbor’s driveway when Mr. Mattera asks, “Are we going to try another house?”

Mattera also had questions for Nancy Pelosi, who always has something to say, about her crony capitalism connection to billionaire Tom Steyer:

I do believe a knee to the groin would have been an appropriate response.

I was thinkin’ that when I saw it yesterday. Capital cops seem, uh, disinterested based on something I read earlier today. I too am thinkin’ assault charges would NOT be too much to ask.

Gee I hope the Holder Dept. of Just Us and Our People does not charge Mr. Mattera with a hate crime.

That Lerner video is painful to watch. I couldn’t finish it, I almost felt sorry for her being refused in by her own neighbors. Almost.

I'd open and shelter any of my neighbors from pretty much anything.

Lerner is not my neighbor.

Even if Lerner was my neighbor, I wouldn't open my door for her to hide from a reporter. I'd open up to her if she was running from a pack of wild dogs or a knife wielding sociopath. I wouldn't protect her from a reporter; she brought this crap on herself.

Isn't that what Nancy Pelosi calls, “speaking truth to power!” Funny when the shoe is on the other foot:-)

I don’t. Not at ALL. If she’d been attacked by dogs, ok. But by a REPORTER????? No way, answer the questions, Beotch.

So is the grilling she got any worse than what she put the Tea Party “crazies” through?

“I do believe that is assault”

I agree..........Lois Lerner assaulted Americans....and the reporter should be a congress critter involved in the Congressional hearings, he asks very good questions.
