Back ‘n’ fill, back ‘n’ fill, back ‘n’ fill...
Jsut trying to fade the heat in a bid to save his worthless carcass.
“I will always work to promote a civil public discourse.”
Too late.
(I thought this would be about Susan Estridge or whatever her name is!)
He’ll probably get some cash to stay quiet. But the police only need a video to press charges.
“Throughout my many years of service ... I have always tried to treat people from all viewpoints with respect.”
Translation: “All those years I was slacking off, I always got away with it.”
He’s just upset that he got caught on video. Why wasn’t he jailed right away?
I just donated to Renee Ellmers- went to her website, saw excellent background, commentary, and positions! Also phoned her office and left a message appreciating her as a candidate and my reasons for donating; her positions on issues, her perspectives for being a representative, and especially her truly professional qualifications for team to remove and replace Obamacare.
I challenge every one of you who suffers now in a misrepresented Congressional District to find and donate to good candidates throughout the country. I’m working my way down the list - every donation regardless of amount is grist to this mill. I’m in Colorado, CD 7, and in dire need of rescue and honest representation. Contacting incumbent does no good whatsoever.
I'll say. The assault victim was even pleading to be let go when the Congressman grabbed him by the neck.
If I were Bob Etheridge, I would sober up quickly and start planning my legal defense.
The washington Post says that this was a hug!!!

You are incorrect sir;
1. his first hold was a wrist lock
2. his second was a choke hold that moved to a neck grip, with pressure applied it really hurts, some parents use this on their children to make them pay attention and force them to look at them when they are talking.... See More
3. his last hold, that you call a hug, was a shoulder lock. Notice that the young mans shoulder was under his arm locked in his armpit. His hand was 6” or so down the young mans shoulder, and then pulled him towards his body, this creates an advantage using his height over the young man. Try it ourself, you can control a person this way, and they lose the ability to swivel and get away.
The young man dropped down unexpectedly to free his shoulders, spin, and get away.
This congressman is familiar with physically imposing himself on others, and I am willing to bet, he has done it his whole life, and probably to his family members as well. He is a controller, both physically and mentally, and a bit of a psychopath IMO.
When this type of behaviour is allowed to be exhibited in public and becomes acceptable behaviour for our elected officials...well, its a slippery slope.
Its time for him to resign. Based on what I have heard from people in his district, he is not thought well of, or very good at his job anyway.
So leave now under your own steam sir, or be tossed out on your ear by your constituents. You have lost their respect, and I suspect it was a long time coming.

Ben Smith over at Politico posted the ‘talking points’ aka ‘attack dog points’ that the Dem party is extorting their sheep to follow...basically it’s attack the interviewer/person asking the question.
She appears to have the proper "credentials".
Has anyone noticed this happened like a week ago and now that the video has gone viral we get an apology?
You tube has banned the video for some reason. Could it be the police informed them it relates to a criminal investigation?
The video is going viral.
It looks like Congressman Etheridge is not going to get away with this crime.
This is not Renee Elmers, you can also see the name on her coat. THIS is Renee Elmers, go to the link about 1/2 way down is a picture.

Not for you and me, it doesn't. Congressthugs however, are a different matter altogether.
Not only a HELL YES they’d be interested but I am willing to be they are combing every OBSCURE paper, journal, video posting, menu reading,,,,event to see if they can find ANYTHING to point to as an equally agregious situation. In fact, they may be manufacturing an event as we speak.
Perhaps Elmers “people” can get the ball rolling, and have him arrested???
Mean girls make butterflies in my stomach.
