John McCormack is a reporter working for The Weekly Standard. Dede Scozzafava is the extremely liberal New York Assemblywoman running as a Republican to succeed Rep. John McHugh from the Empire State's 23rd congressional district in the upcoming special election.
Scozzafava was speaking at a GOP dinner Monday evening. McCormack was reporting on Scozzafava's campaign, including her recent pledge to the AFL-CIO to support Big Labor's top legislative objective, the Card Check proposal - currently stalled in Congress - to abolish the secret ballot in workplace representation elections.
Scozzafava apparently didn't appreciate being asked about her support of Card Check because after she left and McCormack went to his laptop to file a report on the evening's event, the police showed up. What happened next is .... well, here's McCormack's description:
"Minutes later a police car drove into the parking lot with its lights flashing. Officer Grolman informed me that she was called because 'there was a little bit of an uncomfortable situation' and then took down my name, date of birth, and address.
As long as a liberal reporter is allowed to write nice things about liberals, he will never know the danger to freedom of the press, nor will the American people.
Newton Gingrich always disappoints and always will.
Fat parasites never know how lean the host is, and Katie, Brian, and Charlie won’t say a word.
Oops: “There is now way...” should be: “There is no way...”

This is the thread that very clearly explains the parasites and what must be done to defeat them
Brown shirt politics continues.
It’s time to take back the country.
I watch Fox, but when Hannity comes on I switch to Fox Business and watch Cavuto. He's a much better newscaster and isn't nearly as full of himself as Hannity.
Take the business reply envelope, tape it to a shoe box full of rocks, and drop it off at your PO.
Apparently.
This is one of the rare times I'll say, "so what?"
I agree with one minor exception: RINOs have, historically, voted for a Republican Speaker at the beginning of each Congress. That, in of itself, is critical for the power of setting the Legislative Calendar, even if the RINO in question was to stand squarely with the Dhimmicrats on each and every other issue.
Of course, in her case, I'm not sure if that would be true.
Actually, it probably has. The biggest conservative problem is success.
We won the Cold War. We stopped a crime wave. We've strongly buttressed the Second Amendment (Dems flee from gun control). We got quasi-sanity on the SCOTUS. Even with abortion the culture is going our way.
What we should be doing now is be making our economic case which should be a slam dunk. It will, however, require espousing a "safety net" a la Reagan.
We are also going to have to better articulate our policy regarding illegals. Right now it sounds like "round them up and ship them home" which is a losing position with a lot of Americans who have conservative inclinations.
Make the Democrats take the extreme position i.e. give them drivers licenses, let them vote, let them stay regardless etc.
If you say so. I'm looking around me and I'm not seeing it.
I don’t have the money right now, but Hoffman gets an anonymous 10.00
Republican Thugs, Democratic Unions they’re all the same..!
First Amendment? Fourteenth Amendment?
Pfffft. What Constitution?
I am sick of RINOS, no Rinos, the only thing they ever give us is GRIEF (and Democrats’ cover),
Sorry, I’d rather Dem than RINO at this point..! (Just look at McKerry- or should I say McCain)!
That's what I'm thinking. And if it really comes down to her vote would you really want to give her that much power?
Man, don’t you remember the ‘70s? 0bozo hasn’t gotten us there yet, and I don’t know if he can.
