New video which clearly shows thug throwing reporter to ground (around 1:40 mark in video)
This is truly an assault. Why can’t the reporter file charges?
Oh, and coakly did stop, look back and saw what was going on. Then she just kept on walking.
OTOH, there may be no point to pressing charges. The damage has already been done to meehan. What he did will haunt him, just as coakly's non involvement will also.
BTTT
I had a search and replace oopsie (merged two batches of source) that affected the bottom 50 entries.
At least, you now know that people **are** actually clicking on the links that you work so hard to post!
I hope the episode translates to lost votes. I think, taking into account this bad behavior, Brown now really has a chance. the people of Mass. may be Democrats, but they are not stupid. They have to be sick of being pushed around too. I can’t wait for the 19th!!!
Watch the video again with the knowledge that Meehan is a varsity basketball coach at Alexandria Country Day School.
And watch Meehan’s reaction after the terrorism question as he’s standing behind Coakley.
Precisely.
At 55 seconds, you can see the tough guy Meehan turn to his left, whisper to the other guy (I'll bet he said to him "watch this"), and then immediately walk around to get behind McCormack to set him up for the take down.
There's no doubt at all that Meehan planned to do this after the reporter dared to ask lizard lips Coakley the Afghanistan question.
Welcome to the New World Order, demonrat style.
you just hit the nail on the head there.
journalists like so many men today are wimps. I say this at the age of 41.
Most men my age and certainly younger are big with their mouths but not so tough when it comes to the fists.Certainly on the left too.
Infact I’ve met a lot of them like that, they give you a finger in their car but when you get face to face with them they really crap it.
How many times do they shout their mouths off and when you now decide to confront them and get on their face they have the look of shock while their girlfriend or wife then saying OMG can you believe that man he looked like he was going to hit you, for him to reply no problem I’d sue him if he did.
Maybe I was raised differently or it was the military but if you’re going to mouth off then be prepared to back it up and that doesn’t mean with a lawsuit.
This journalist is a big wimp and he should be embarrassed by his actions.
Describe for me the result you envision would have come about if McCormack had gotten into a throwdown with a big-time Democrat party crony on a public street, and had kicked his ass. What kind of news stories would have been written? What kind of attention would it have garnered across the country? What effect would it have had on McCormack, his future, and his family?
This video needs sent to the Boston Globe reporter and in the comments section....
They actually did put a fairer article after the original puff piece on this yesterday.

****EMPHASIZE THIS IS NEW VIDEO****
Honestly, the other one wasn’t too convincing though it looked bad.
This one IS DAMNING for the thug.
These incidents are rarely clear-cut.
But, this video is clear.
That’s extremely unusual and really damning for Coakley.
This could turn voters off to her, and it must be spread.
you missed the point
the reporter was wimpy IMHO and should have just barged past him .
All he had to do was to walk straight, not to wave his arms up like a french man surrendering again.
my other comments state how men today mostly younger men especially the elitist college soft asses use their mouths but then crap it when they see someone who will stand up to them.
Show them that they might get into a fight and they looked shocked . Reason is because they are not used to someone standing up to them, they’re more used t doing things and getting away with it .
I was brought up differently to them but maybe it was the military or boxing which made me this way but if you mouth off or give a finger then don’t complain when there is come back for your action(not you BTW)
I think his arms were up because he had a microphone and his job was to get audio from Coakley. He wasn’t holding his arms up for drama.
Easy enough to armchair quarterback. But Meehan is an experienced basketball player who has a lot of experience in blocking or impeding the forward progress of an adversary, and when he has no fear of incurring a flagrant personal foul from a nearby referee, I'm sure he is even more effective at doing so than he would be on the basketball court.
“Both Meehan and Coakley lied about this incident. They are obviously trying to save their butts. Meehan no rent-a-guard, he’s a highly placed Democratic politico. And he acts like a common street thug.”
++++++++++++++
Right. And the truth is in plain photographic view for all to see. DOLTS, MORONS *and* LIARS!
Good Job everyone! When I logged off last nite, the You Tube view counter had doubled from 335 to 735 for the video. In checking the views this morning, there were 7,944 views counted! :)
Not sure this would be considered “viral” yet, but clearly, the word is getting out.
