” No matter how intrusive and partisan our politics can become, this does not justify a poor response”.

The nerve of anyone asking me a question while holding a camera.

Aside from being a little drunk, I had every right to assault this crude common piece of trash for being so rude to me.

It’s all his fault, I’m above the law, I’m a dumb-o-crat U.S. Rep. and we accuse
others without any evidence and get away with it all the time, so I’m am blameless and feel he should be sent to jail for questioning ME about ANYTHING.

The real shocker here is that YouTube hasn't pulled the video yet which seems to be their policy regarding proof of Leftist violence against Conservatives.

The best response from “Who are you?” came from the Clint Eastwood movie High Plains Drifter. A bad guy was getting his butt beat from Clint’s character when he uttered those words. Needless to say, Clint’s character finished him off. I bet this rep knows who the kid is before he resigns.

Yup. Nail on the head!

I think Bob had had a few when the kids encountered him.

Hopefully the GOP will nominate a veteran who can take this guy out this November. With all of the military retirees in the area, sombody should step up and take the guy out.

“I have seen the video posted on several blogs. I deeply and profoundly regret that my reaction was videotaped, and I apologize to all involved who saw it.

The little dem bully is “sorry” he got caught on camera. His reaction didn’t look like a “first” to me... that’s him - let’s hope other step forward.

5. He shouldn’t apologize
He was ambushed by freepers and assaulted by them coming up and harassing him. He had every right to know who they were and who they worked for. He should file assault charges and get a warrant over to YouTube to unmask these hooligans and demand they be prosecuted.

Fool should count himself lucky he picked on someone he could bully. Leaving his ugly mug open like that was an invitation to a serious nosebleed.

I wonder how many staffers it took to write that, and how long they analyzed every word and phrase they wrote for him. Hell I bet they had a quick poll around other office staffers to see how they thought it would play before they let him read it.

What’s the story on people not apologizing? Further, what’s the deal with them pretending to apologize and calling it an apology?

How about “I grabbed the kid, wouldn’t let him go, and slapped his camera. I am sorry for doing those things and I regret it..... further blather...”

There’s probably 10 more threads that don’t have etheridge as a keyword.

More threads being added as we speak.
