The next year will be highlighted, the entire year, by the media and the Obama "justice" team going after Republicans...any small problem will be AMPLIFIED.

The goal of the media and Obama is to destroy anyone who calls themselves Republican.

Dinesh, charged with FELONY. Trey Radel, charged with MISDEMEANOR. Michael Grimm, baited into "outburst".

If the Republican apologizes, not enough. If the charge was overblown, as in D'Souza's case, no matter. In this case, the guy is not charged, merely "under investigation" (REPORTEDLY)....but who cares? The media and even many Republicans will throw them under the bus.

Any Republican remaining will be tainted as part of the "culture of corruption". This is the SAME THING that happened in 2006, when Demon Rats and the media teamed up to taint the Republican brand. Remember Mark Foley? All of his ALLEGED indiscretions were later shown to be nowhere NEAR what the media reported....though the actions were dumb, they were not criminal. The goal was to destroy any thought of voting Republican....and it worked.

In 2006, Demon Rats won control of the House, and the way was paved for Hussein.

Grimm said he was on a tight schedule and had previously told NY1 that he was only going to discuss the speech.

A former Grimm staffer told The Post that the congressman was a hothead who takes his rages out on journalists.

“Grimm has anger issues,” the staffer said. “This is not the first time he’s tried to intimidate a reporter.”

No sympathy here.

He's under Federal investigation, and he's "only going to discuss the speech"?

Only 'rats can get away with stuff like that, and only iconic 'rats, like Ted Kennedy! If he didn't want to be asked, he shouldn't have talked to the press at all.

(Just because Obama and his gang of thugs have lowered the bar to depths never before seen doesn't mean that it's okay for Republicans to follow the bar down.)

Grimm was wrong. He could have done the standard, ‘there's nothing there and I can't discuss details while the investigation is under way but thanks for your concern’. There's a million variations he could have employed but the bottom line is, he was dead wrong in threatening bodily harm. He needs to go if he can't rise above.

Don’t know anything about this guy, but if he’s from NY, then most likely he’s a RINO.

BUT, I agree with your statement.

If it was a Dem, that reporter probably wouldn’t have asked that question.

That reporter was quite a smart ass, and I just can't stand people acting too smart by half, then playing innocent...

Nice to see that someone still has a set of balls in the Republican party.

Bravo Michael Grimm

Its about time to look for ways to prosecute those who report or publish intentionally misleading or improperly sourced political information with the intention of affecting an election.

Candy Crowley's disgusting performance at the 2012 debates is a perfect example - it would be easy to prove that she intentionally mislead viewers to Obama's benefit.

On the other hand I don't know what good that would do since the leftwing has corrupted the judiciary, also.

He was in such a hurry to get to his next interview, but found time to come back and threaten the reporter.

He just handed the Democrat his seat.

Note to pencil necked reporters: Lie to and bait an ex-Marine (and ex-FBI) at your own risk.

By not letting the congressman throw him off that balcony, the reported missed a good opportunity to write an expose on ObamaCare.

Grimm was stupid. Not only should he resign, he should be charged. There is no way we can let elected officials talk to us like that whether they be republican or democrat.

If he was a democrat people here would be calling for his head and rightly so.

This can not be tolerated.

Grimm is my Congressman and I have warned many times that if he votes for amnesty I will work to defeat him. I wrote this to him this morning:

“What you have done is redouble the Democrats’ resolve to defeat you. I don’t want to see you defeated but if you vote amnesty I’ll join them. Please understand that your road to re-election is through grassroots conservatives. You won’t get ANY Democrat votes and if you pass amnesty you won’t get our votes either. Boehner and Ryan are leading you to certain defeat. Stand up to them pull hard right and stay there. When amnesty comes up vote no. We’ve just seen construction jobs pull the island’s employment numbers up, newly legal Democrats will vote against you and steal American construction jobs. Thereafter the conservative construction workers will vote against you as well.”

Grimm behaved poorly. The reporter is a sniveling nancyboy. That's that.

I demand a new and more interesting story immediately!!

Grimm is a RINO and supports amnesty for illegals. One of the most liberal House Republicans.

Didn’t Bill Clinton cuss at a reporter & grab his arm in the 90s?

Grimm was stupid. Simple as that...stupid.

If you are going to agree to talk to a reporter you should expect to get asked about an ongoing investigation. Be prepared...’I have no comment concerning any ongoing investigation’.

If you want to have the high ground...you have to...HAVE TO...be above reproach. You HAVE to expect D’s and RINO’s and the press will be looking into every nook and cranny. Your job as a conservative is to play it straight. It’s pretty freaking simple.

Being so stupid as to say to a reporter....with the camera rolling...that you’re going to throw him over the railing and break him like a boy? Stupid. YOU have just made yourself the story...and not in a good way.

Great job. / sar

Geez, all these east-coasters can do is recycle “Hurricane” Sandy sob-stories. If you had insurance, your stuff is fixed by now. If you didn’t have insurance, you’re a moron who deserves nothing. Either way, quit telling me about it. I don’t care.

Something tells me if this had been a dem...and if the reporter had been someone from the blaze....people here would be OUTRAGED at the response of the politician and calling for his ouster.

People....part of having integrity means having the same response regardless of the circumstances....that and not being a hypocrite.
