Man Says Bill Clinton Elbowed Him in the Face
CNS ^ | 2/19/08 | staff

Posted on 02/19/2008 11:38:04 AM PST by pissant

An Ohio man says former President Clinton elbowed him in the face after a Sunday campaign rally in Canton, Ohio.

The man told Cybercast News Service that he has not ruled out taking legal action against the former president.

Robert Holeman, who supports the presidential campaign of Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), said he shouted Obama's name during the rally and then spoke to the former president as he was leaving the event. As shown on a videotape broadcast on MSNBC Monday morning, Clinton repeatedly wagged his finger in Holeman's face.

At one point, Holeman said in an interview with Cybercast News Service, Clinton hit him in the face with his elbow while he was reaching into the crowd and that the Secret Service had to move the former president's elbow from his face.

He’s lucky he got an elbow. Look at what happened to Monica.

Without reading the article, did it mention he is a black guy?

Imagine if John McCain did this? Or any prominent Republican. Next Months headlines would be "X Smacks Black Heckler" and variants on it.

I saw this loser on H & C last night. You know you’re a doofus when even Alan Colmes makes you look bad. The Slickster should have called for security to escort the loser out of there.

Nonsense. This moron’s first story was that he “thought” Clinton might have hit his face with his hand. I saw the interview; this guy’s a nobody looking for his 15 minutes.

They’re over.

Man says Bill Clinton elbowed him in the face...

Lucky man, ask what happened to Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broderick. It could have been worse.

I’m no Clinton fan, but this guy probably deserved a smack in the face.

As someone who once heckled Clinton to his face, I can tell you he turns purple with rage during incidents like this. I’m not at all surprised.

If elbows are outlawed, only Ex-Presidents will have elbows.

I saw him interviewed. He said Clinton even “touched” his face. Better have video if he wants to sue.
