The oath of office means nothing to these clowns.

I know a congressman that is in real trouble.
More proof that the RATS are radical liberals an NOT good for America.
Don’t miss this very strange incident.
Wonder how many people down in Sanford know about this?
Apparently he doesn't know the Constitution he swore to defend and uphold, either.
Found on Breitbart:
Congressman Etheridge only accepts email from his constituents. So go to his website (http://etheridge.house.gov/Contact/), and use his own address to send him some kind words:
Outraged Citizen
333 Fayetteville Street, Suite 505
Raleigh, NC 27601-1742.
You can also request him for an appearance – I submitted the address of the North Carolina Attorney General’s office:
Attorney General’s Office
9001 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-9001
Telephone: (919) 716-6400
Fax: (919) 716-6750
I almost envy the kid with the microphone.
It was his chance to beat the shit out of this moron, with NO repercussions whatsoever....should have punched the drunk Congressman in the throat....
College students are strong rat voters. Any rat is glad to have a big university in his district.
I don’t think the lib students will be too upset. Hopefully their parents will be though. Dude looked crazed.
Renee Ellmers looks very active from the first blush of a search engine. She also embraces the Tea Party.
“Renee Ellmers, 46, is a registered nurse who manages her husband’s medical practice in Dunn. She is a self-described tea party conservative who has made criticism of Etheridge’s vote in favor of the health care legislation a focus of her campaign.”
Here’s an interview:

EP: Earlier this year, Club for Growth released their scorecard for 2009 which measures fiscal responsibility among lawmakers on Capitol Hill. Your opponent, Bob Etheridge achieved a 6% score.
Ms. Ellmers: Well, if I don’t score higher than 6%, I’ll give up and come home. My philosophy is conservative and “Fiscal Conservatism” is more than just a label to me. Congressman Etheridge refers to himself as a “Fiscally Conservative Democrat,” but I’ve yet to see that reflected in his voting record. My goal will be to decrease spending, lower taxes (to stimulate job growth in the short-term), and then work toward comprehensive tax reform such as the Fair Tax. These policies – plus decreasing regulations on small businesses – will create jobs.
EP: You are a nurse by vocation and your husband is a doctor ... [healthcare question]
Ms. Ellmers: Let me start out by saying that Nancy Pelosi and company forcing the healthcare bill through Congress may be the most detrimental piece of legislation to affect our country ever. If elected I am going to work tirelessly to defund, dismantle and eventually repeal the bill. [snip]
[Immigration]
Ms. Ellmers: I think the Democrats best illustrated their attitudes about illegal immigration when they all stood up in Congress to applaud Mexican President Calderon when he stated that he was against the Arizona immigration bill. Who’s country do they represent?
I support Arizona Governor Jan Brewer. I think she has shown rare courage. [snip]
[War on Terror]
Ms. Ellmers: The first step is simple: President Obama has to recognize – and tell the American people – he understands radical Islamic terrorism does exist. He also has to understand that our country is great because of our American exceptionalism – and not arrogance. His repeated apologetic remarks regarding America to other nations, both ally and enemy, must end and be replaced with a message of strength. I would also advise President Obama to step-up support for our military and discuss military strategies focused on success rather than exit dates.
[I think that this will become a more important issue — war is likely to errupt by November in Israel, NK, or both. Chavez is also supporting terrorists.]
Why the edited video?
It should be left to speak on its own.
Otherwise it is not going to get the media attention it deserves.
No credible media organization will run a video with interspliced commentary in it.
Nor should they.
Seeing things like this makes me angry at the stupidity of those who destroy the credibility of their own footage with that sort of peanut gallery crap.
Try "would have" or "would've" instead! Sorry to pick, but this was very basic elementary school stuff back in more literate days.
As for the student who questioned the old fool, I admire his restraint. By resisting the temptation to retaliate -- even if he had the right to do so -- he has kept the focus on the Congressman's behavior instead of his own. He "took one for the team" -- and the sweetest revenge can wait until November.

He should, and stripped of whatever pension & benefits he’s acquired as a congressman.
See Post 123.

“I don’t think the lib students will be too upset.”
I hear you, but kids pay attention to redneck antics. They get excited. And there is a lot of energy with anti-leftist students who will gleefully taunt the left.
It’s also ice water on energy for the democrats. What kind of nut are they campaigning for? I think it will generate apathy on their side.
Oh, and I guess living down here, I can tell you that medical is huge in the Raleigh/Durham area. That’s a big part of their economy. That’s also a big part of their education. The medical students will most definitely be energized.
Seems like the comment needs to be expanded to include the majority of the leadership of the Donkey Party in D.C., IMHO
