Washington, DC, Jun 14 - U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-Lillington) released the following statement on the viral video which appeared on the internet today:
I have seen the video posted on several blogs. I deeply and profoundly regret my reaction and I apologize to all involved. Throughout my many years of service to the people of North Carolina, I have always tried to treat people from all viewpoints with respect. No matter how intrusive and partisan our politics can become, this does not justify a poor response. I have and I will always work to promote a civil public discourse.

"I have and I will always work to promote a civil public discourse."
Yes, by intimidating anyone who dares ask me a question I don't like.

Who Are You?
Artist: The Who
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said “You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away”
I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin’ punches around
And preachin’ from my chair
chorus:
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
‘Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin’ Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin
I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the Tin Pan
God, there’s got to be another way
Who are you?
Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ...
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
(chorus)
I know there’s a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees
I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still recieve your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?
(chorus)

I'm not happy until he's humiliated, out of work, and behind bars.
Same goes for his cronies.

"a poor response"
It's not the lack of skill we object to, Bobbo, it's the arrogance. You've been around too long.

Ahhhh, isn’t that sweet? It’s so nice to kick someone in the ‘nads and then immediately apologize. Not this time Bob, Amercia has had it with politicians like you who think they operate outside of the law.

No matter how intrusive and partisan our politics can becomeLuckily there's video showing just how "intrusive" this kid's question was, and the congressman won't get away with his lying democrat schtick.

This guy is so stupid. What was wrong with: Sorry son but I am late for an appointment and can't talk right now. Then, just walk away. I hope the kid sues him.

If the victim of this attack doesn’t file charges he’s as big of an idiot as the Congressman.

Loved their music, but their lyrics really were a crock sometimes.
