Pelosi Bodyguard Fears for Speaker's Safety as Liberals Get Violent at Progressive Conference
Tuesday, June 8, 2010 | Kristinn

Posted on 06/08/2010 8:28:41 AM PDT by kristinn

Fox News is running video of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi getting heckled this morning at a speech at the liberal Campaign for America's Future conference held in Washington, D.C.

The video shows a plainclothes Capitol Police officer telling Pelosi she needs to leave because people in the crowd are "throwing things."

Pelosi refused to leave and continued to engage the hecklers.

Another video posted at YouTube shows the meeting room during Pelosi's speech, but not from the time when liberals were throwing things.

That video shows Code Pink Hamas-Democrat party activists holding a banner stage left of Pelosi that said, "Stop Funding Israeli Terror."

Many others in the crowd stood and heckled Pelosi. Pelosi tried to engage the hecklers, eventually quieting the crowd so that one woman's emotional plea about healthcare could be heard. It was soon after that the crowd apparently turned violent and Pelosi's bodyguard then urged her to leave.

Ah, NOW she's seeing the violence and hatred from the 60's...and by the same culprits...liberals.

Right? I thought Liberals were “peaceful” activists. They NEVER throw things!

Makes you wonder if obama’s thugs are wanting to take the attention off him and put it on Pelosi. Make her the “bad-guy???”

Atta girl, Nancy.

You stand up to those nasty Pink-O’s. Defend with your life - if necessary - your right to be a plastic bee-yotch.

Only Fox would use the words ‘liberal’ and ‘violent’ in the same sentence; in the MSM, it would be heresy. Like when the Black Panthers talk about arming themselves to kill whites, it’s neither terrorism nor racism.

Could be that some of those people are now angry and frustrated because their liberal arts degrees are worthless in today’s economy and they can’t find a good job.

A violent protest group?

Where is homeland security? Why aren’t they profiling?

For a thrill, watch the video, she gives several perfect nazi salutes trying to quiet the crowd.

If Nancy moves any farther to the left, if she looked to her right she'd see herself.

Beck was right, he said this morning the uber left are the truly dangerous ones, as in physically dangerous, to the progressives and they are truly worried ...

Unfortunately it looks like they were throwing dinner rolls. I want to see Pelosi being pelted with bricks, or the Holy Hand grenade of Antioch.
