Angry ACORN Mob Intimidates NY Lawmaker, Assaults Top Aide
AMERICAN SPECTATOR ^ | 6.12.09 @ 6:40PM | By Matthew Vadum

Posted on 06/12/2009 4:07:40 PM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

an angry mob that included many ACORN supporters nearly knocked New York state Sen. James Alesi, a Republican, down on the floor and spat in the face of his chief of staff....

The protesters were reportedly upset that two Democratic senators decided to caucus with Republicans, a move that when finalized by the state Senate would hand Republicans control of it. Majority Democrats have shut down the chamber to prevent the transfer of power.

How is this possible? ACORN is non partisan and a non profit. It must be a case of mistaken identity.

They should be arrested and charged with assault and battery.

Holder would refuse to prosecute.

Isolated incident?

Just a few grumpy folks that didn’t really mean anything?

It was simply a few people that feel strong about an issue so they acted out?

Anybody that thinks we are going to get our country back by simply voting, is in for a shock... and should stay away from sharp objects.

Once again, our 'fearless' elected RINOs allow themselves to get ACORNholed without so much as a whimper. We need to fire every last one of these third teats and start over with those who don't mind picking enamel out of their knuckles.

“Worse than that was to lock the bill jackets in a drawer, so that even though we had an active list we couldn’t vote on any bills to send them to the governor or to send them to the assembly,” Alesi said. “It’s an obstruction of legislative process. It’s a disgraceful display of power that is not righteously held at this point.”

Now we know who Obama’s Brown Shirts are—ACORN.

Or who they always were.

Who runs ACORN?

"Majority Democrats have shut down the chamber to prevent the transfer of power."

The hypocrisy is stunning. If Republicans did this, most every news source in the nation would be screaming bloody murder. Liberals are whiny little fascist pigs.

Republican Sen. George Winner of Elmira blamed Angelo Aponte, secretary of the Senate, for not preventing the protest. Winner said Aponte violated chamber rules by allowing it to go on. Republicans have already sought Aponte’s resignation, to no avail.

“Today’s disgraceful actions outside the Senate chamber were clearly sanctioned by Secretary of the Senate Angelo Aponte,” Winner said. “He put the well-being of staff and legislators in jeopardy by allowing a violent protest in a restricted area of the Senate lobby.”

Below is a recruiting site for hiring full-time “activists” for the Working Families Party of New York—an ACORN front group. This is your tax dollars at work:
