[PhilosopherStone1000]

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.”

Rep. Bob Etheridge (NC-02)

The problem is, a lot of those kids that voted for Obama are now living, eating and breathing in Obama’s America.

My 23 YO daughter has confessed to me that she struggles to avoid telling her friends "I TOLD YOU SO!!!"

My advice to her was "the truth shall set you free!" LOL

Harry Reid thought the voters smelled. Maybe this idiot thought the kid had BO or something.

“Breaking stories like this, always check with drudgereport for links.”

I check FRee Republic for breaking news.

[Boxsford]

I think he thought you saw it and was wondering where the assault was in it.

[Boxsford]

whatever. at least at drudge you don’t have to ask for a link.

[reagan_fanatic]

The poster’s name is tidy_bowl?

How appropriate.

[Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears]

My apologies then.

[Beagle8U]

Most of the time you don't need to ask for a link on FR articles either.

At least at FRee Republic you don't have to wade through ads, pop-ups, and BS like you do at Drudge now.

[BARLF]

[Beagle8U]

No problem.

Charges should be pressed and if they are not pressed, this assault on camera enboldens all the other black shirts.
