Bill Kemble of the Kingston Freeman found out that when Rep. Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) tells you to shut up, he’s not kidding. Last night, according to YNN’s Capitol Tonight blog, Hinchey erupted after Kemble tried to get Hinchey to answer a question regarding allegations of conflict of interest between Hinchey’s earmark requests and his own financial interests the Partition Street Project, a story covered by the Freeman last May. Hinchey refused to answer, at one point telling Kemble to “shut up!” while on YNN’s camera.
Last night, he said he has “no financial interest” in the project, and pointedly told Kemble:
“What are you talking about…Are you trying to give the same phony stuff that are you put in the Freeman so many times. Are you still as deceptive as you always have been? Are still you a manipulative guy? You’re full of baloney. You’re full of baloney.”
At this point, another reporter tried to break in to ask a question, and Hinchey said: “Yeah, please ask me something. This guy is just full of baloney.”
When Kemble persisted, Hinchey told him: “Shut up!”

Guess it’s worse than I thought... After MO HIN CHEE’s rally with SLICK WILLY (which only gathered 800 people), I won’t wanna get anywhere Near him.
You can’t ask me that!
I’m an important member of the American Left!
Radicals act violently all the time towards their political and social opposition. They are known for murdering millions of their political enemies when they have the power to do that. Intimidation through violence is what makes a radical. The Dems are radicals.
When push comes to shove, the Rinos will join them. McCain, for example, is only an inch away from physically attacking conservatives who challenge his slimy radical politics and betrayals. He really, really hates us; we are his only political opposition. He joined with radical Fiengold to end the free speech rights of his enemies during elections. I have no doubt that McCain would join with his friends across the aisle if it came time to round up those “domestic terrorists” The One has fingered.
What is the current number of Democratic candidates who have assaulted someone in public during the past year? It seems I have heard of at least a couple more. And we can’t ignore threats; the range of those threatening violence includes folks from the citizen level on up to the President. Scary people, these liberal Democrats.
Cheer up, Maurice. When you’re ousted from the House of Representatives, you’ll still hold the proud position of Ithaca NY’s village idiot: An arguably more honorable office, as, in that place, more heavily contested.
None...they always get away with it.
Now, if you said, "allegedly assaulted"...that's a different story! :-)
