A Weekly Standard reporter says he was roughed up last night outside a Washington, D.C. fund-raiser for Attorney General Martha Coakley by someone he believes is associated with her U.S. Senate campaign.

John McCormack, the magazine’s deputy online editor, writes about the incident outside the Sonoma restaurant in an online dispatch entitled: “We Report, We Get Pushed.”

AG Coakley makes a mockery of what once was the Massachusetts General Court::


The DNC system in Massachusettes (spelling courtesy of Attorney General Coakley)
stands rigid as her agents attack citizens
for Coakley and the DNC. Think anyone will be arrested?

Liberal RAT politics up close and very personal. Maybe the MSM will get the message as to whom they’re supporting and covering for; DC thugs?

The reporter needs to IMMEDIATELY file assault charges against the perp AND the entity that was paying the perp to be there, IMHO.

Until the thugs start having to pay for their actions, they will NOT stop.

A poster on another thread said her office was contacted and they said she wasn't there.

Even with photographic evidence.....they LIE!

Sorry, but the MSM not only know about the attacks
but, beginning with Jim Lehrer, have encouraged violence.

"PRESIDENT OBAMA: And this week, .... we're going to be doing is bringing some of them into the White House and --
JIM LEHRER: To crack heads?"


"To crack heads?" Lehrer asks.
"Oh, I don't know about cracking heads," Obama said, "facilitating a discussion that solves these problems." "


"PBS's Lehrer Badgers Obama from the Left: What About Banks' 'Huge Profits?'
By Matthew Balan | July 21, 2009 - 11:56
"PBS's Jim Lehrer ... urged the executive to "crack heads"
to get his health care plan passed, and inquired if "taxing the wealthy" was an option to fund it.
Lehrer later pressed Mr. Obama on the "huge profits" being made by "big Wall Street banks.""
