As you may have heard, a Dem staffer helping the Martha Coakley campaign was caught on video shoving a Weekly Standard reporter, prompting an explosion of outrage from national Republicans and the right-wing media, who alleged bullying and intimidation.
Now the staffer, Michael Meehan, sends over a statement admitting error (though not conceding bullying) and saying he also apologized directly to the Standard reporter, John McCormack:

It was just another Democrat's physical attack on someone. What's the news?
<<<...prompting an explosion of outrage from national Republicans and the right-wing media, who alleged bullying and intimidation.>>>

I don’t know the background or bent of the plumline but this sentence grates on my nerves.
This more or less assumes that only Republicans and right-wing media could have a problem with a politician’s aide knocking a reporter to the ground.
I just wanna tell any of you liberals who are trolling on here this...you do that when I happen to be around and you better call a undertaker fast. Because I will track you down like a hound on a rabbit.
Sorry about grabbing your graphic but it is powerful and I wanted to make sure it got around.
I want charges against this guy!
Someone should contact the state Attorney General. Oh wait...
It happened in DC so I think that is Eric Holder’s jurisdiction. He is a bought and paid for neo-com tool. A coward who doesn’t prosecute leftists. Think New Black Panthers wielding night sticks at a polling place.
I love little wussies like that dem bully. It's his size and the fact that he's willing to fight that separates him from the reporter.
That's why ya gotta have a key in your hand.... you just get up and let him get real close.. right up to him so that there is no space at all. Turn your head to the right, bring your right hand to your head and wipe away from your runny nose and then to "steady yourself" by grabbing his shoulder.
Make sure you are chest up and keep your right leg outside of his left leg , like dancing.... then thank him and bring your knee up as hard as you can and start coughing... a lot.
Then as he's bent over, slap him as hard as you can on his right ear with your open hand as your coughing..... keep coughing ,
Most of the ladies that take self defense know that then , stick the key in his face as he turns left..... and pull....
The only way you beat a bully is by fighting him. That reporter is just trying to do his job, so was the thug. I like bullies. The ones you have to worry about are the ones that you can't see.
Please, for any conservatives that are at rallies or other "meetings".. take video so that you can show self defense. This democrat strong arm guy is just 60 years to late and missing his brown shirt.
As I have posted elsewhere, God willing, this image could be her "hiding behind the baby" moment. :o)
From www.cleveland.com/movies: A photographer records the scene, Stillson's career is curtains... Martin Sheen's baby hoist
"The Dead Zone" (1983)Martin Sheen [as corrupt politician Greg Stillson]
commits a bit of a campaign slip-up in "The Dead Zone."
...but Stillson, with the gun still pointed at him, grabs a baby to shield himself.
It is and thanks go to WaterBoard for adding the graphics to it.
Watch Coakley’s two thugs as they sight McCormack and the big thug goes after McCormack.
Then, watch the last 30 seconds or so after the thug pushed McCormack down and continued to hassle, assualt and threaten him.
