” ...“Oh, you think that’s funny?!” the large bearded man said. His face was turning red. “Yeah, that’s real funny…” he said.

And then he kicked the back of my leg, buckling my right knee and sending me sprawling onto the ground.”

one legged reporter ?

You’re absolutly right. All campaigns incite passion- but here, the media is blaming McCain and Palin personally and exclusively—with the ulterior motive to have them get off a significant issues. One of thos is- -—that Americans are being intimidated into silence.

"Now who writes things like this about themselves? People who are making things up, that's who. I would bet the farm that, just like the "kill him" report, this is made up."

Consider the source. It's the Politico.

Well, how about a camera phone? You’d think the Obama protestors—who he went over to pal around with— could produce pictures. I don’t believe Ben Smith unless he can produce pictures.

I sense a Jayson Blair type of story here.

Glad I wasn’t there. I probably would have had to come up with something like “I don’t know why I used excessive force defending that woman”.

Yup, Obama protesters going to a McCain rally certainly would bring cameras to document something like this. They're trying to provoke a reaction and get it documented. I've seen it many times. Without photographic proof, I call BS.

Greensboro News has two articles (pretty positive) that reports a disturbance between two groups of protesters, both groups were ejected and they were no arrests. If one of these reporters was assaulted they didn’t mention it in their article.

This just happened last night, so we'll see. Apparently, by the time the guy found the cops, the alleged perp had disappeared. Seems unusual to me that this could happen with so many people around. Weren't the Obama protesters photographing their little rally? If we don't see some follow-up, we'll probably not hear much about this going forward.

You can bet that the next one will be captured on film. I, for one, don't believe that this was made up or that it was a "plant." As others here have pointed out, there is a lot of anger out there. Still, this is the time for a little freakin' self-control.

Yet, assault is still a crime.

Sure is..........if it really happened.

Sorry.

Not buying any today.

I don’t even need to click that to know it’s a great soundbyte from the old Jim Healy show!

Politico loves this stuff. They pray for these incidents. So, did this reporter press charges or is he just whining to Obama’s Gestapo so they will take care of the man.

Politico is jealous of the attention Joe the Plumber is getting. Journalists are some of the biggest narcissists alive.
