Disgusting! I hope that man presses charges against that jack-booted, union thug!
Russel should hire Edwards to sue that idiot that hurt him. there are lots of pictures to support his claim.
Kerry and his group are a bunch of morons
"A man wearing a Sheet Metal Workers union shirt ..."
Stuff like this makes me want to go to a kerry speech and heckle just to see what dumb SOB would even try something.
*fyi*
I'm tellin' ya'... they are melting down before our eyes! Be careful out there, Freepers.
The guy has a good case caught on camera.. he needs to retain John Edwards as his lawyer...
This sounds like a case for the 2nd district GOP chairman, don't you think? :-)
What's his screen name?
But the Mike Russell with Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, when contacted Wednesday at his office in Alexandria, Va., said he was not at the speech in Cincinnati.
I'm telling you right now... the dirty tricks that will be coming from the Kerry Kamp over the next 2 months will make Dick Nixon blush. I wouldn't be surprised that they find some guy that looks like GW Bush and have him rob a liquor store (after making sure the surveillance cameras work).
Gee...where I have I seen this tactic before. Liberal democratic Union worker attacks conservative protester for speaking his views. Sounds a lot like what happened to Don Adams to me.
Reporters who followed Russell outside to try to talk with him were ordered by Kerry campaign staffers to return inside immediately or risk not being allowed back in to hear the speech."Comrade Reporter-sheep -- HERE ARE THE OFFICIAL FACTS! REPORT THEM!
Kerry campaign spokesman David Wade told reporters that the heckler was Mike Russell, who is listed as a spokesman for the anti-Kerry group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.And all the good little Reporter-sheep Comrades did EXACTLY what they were told. AND LOVED IT!
As for the first part of the story, it is tit-for-tat. Our boys did it at the RNC, and now they got us back, in others words don't start none, won't be none. You have to be prepared for this stuff in todays politically charged atmosphere. As for the second part, it just shows what a low life scum kerry and his minions are.
Wow absolutely disgusting and stalinistic.
Did you hear Bush say about the heckler at the convention that Dims like to do these kind of things? No he didnt because Bush is a far better person than Kerry ever will be.
This does not excuse what the Kerry campaign did afterwards with their threats to the press (who were free to stay outside and ask questions if they wanted just the same) or trying to peg this guy as a Swiftie , or any physical harm done to the man...it's just that he was very unwise. If he had fought back and hurt the other fellow, he would be the one charged.
We can't have a double standard for this type of thing. What the guiy did was wrong IMHO.
The Bush team loves to disrupt? Ummm sKerry, you king Rat of all Rats....I recall a few DISRUPTIONS by your followers at the GOP convention!!!!!!!
Union thugs, ambulance-chasing trial lawyers, and assorted other fringe interests make up the dimocrap party. Nice group.
Heckler from Kentucky interrupts Kerry speech
Doesn't have the "real" Mike Russell's quote.
That Kerry team was sure quick to spin a lie! Desperate. And those reporters must be peeved too.
