Main stream news organizations practicing gotcha journalism = Pulitzer Prize.
Student journalists asking a benign question = Hatchet job.

ALL Democrats are THUGS....ELITIST THUGS!!!
Evidently, by his actions...He doesn’t support Obama..*LOL*
If he did, he would’ve smiled into the camera and began his “political” speeching....
We can’t forget the lout from Virginia’s 8th Congressional district, Jim Moran (’RAT-VA):
“...a legislative career that has been increasingly marked by physical threats, lost tempers, odd comments, and ethically questionable deals.
“— In May 2001, Lloyd Grove, “Reliable Source” columnist for the Washington Post, reported that Moran’s house was the site of “a ruckus that a witness described as ‘something out of a Jerry Springer episode.’” According to Grove’s account, two female friends of Moran visited the recently divorced congressman and were surprised to find the other, and after screaming and door slamming, Moran had one of the women “by the arm, trying to get her out of the house.” Moran’s chief of staff, Paul Reagan, explained: “It was just two very good friends who came to give him birthday presents and were surprised that the other one was there.”
“— In June 2000, Moran’s wife, Mary, called police to their home claiming the congressman pushed her. Moran told police he pushed her in self-defense when she came toward him, but Mrs. Moran disputed that. There was no evidence of assault, and charges weren’t filed. They divorced shortly after the incident.
“— In April 2000, Moran said he was threatened by an eight-year-old boy who tried to take the congressman’s car keys by pretending he had a gun. In front of witnesses, Moran angrily carried the boy from a parking lot to a recreation center, where police interviewed both. No charges were filed against the boy or Moran.
“— In 1998, amidst revelations about the president’s infidelities, Moran reportedly told the First Lady that if he were her brother, he would have punched President Clinton in the nose.
“— In 1995, Moran had to apologize after shoving Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham, California Republican, out of the House floor into a cloakroom.
“— According to the Washington Post, Moran took an unsecured $25,000 loan from a friend who was a lobbyist for Schering-Plough in 1999, just a few weeks after Moran co-sponsored a bill to help the drug giant protect its monopoly on the allergy drug Claritin. Moran also took a $50,000 loan from James Kimsey, cofounder of America Online, a huge local employer, and he became a leading backer of bankruptcy-reform legislation four days after he took a $447,000 loan with unusually generous terms from MBNA, the credit company that was pushing the reform bill. Moran denied that any of the deals constituted a “quid pro quo.”
“The summer of rage begins.”
Heh heh...Power to the People...
To me, the weird thing is that the very act of asking a Dem Congressman if he agress with a Dem President is prima facie evidence of a GOP hit-job. Huh? And that is all I saw and heard the kid do before he was assaulted.
Good work!
I can get to his contact page.

I hope nobody is holding their breath waiting for the DC police to arrest this congresscritter. Afterall, they are probably all busy in Maryland assisting SEIU thugs riot and threaten a young teenager.
LOL, LOL
"Game of gotcha?"
By that definition, everybody has a right to commit simple assault every time a 60 Minute reporter shows up with a camera crew.
When Geoerge W. Bush was President, the Democrats used to call asking questions with a camera a basic First Amendment right. (The Democrats were actually correct at that time .... You know .... stopped clock .... twice a day ..... blind squirrel .... nut. )
Oh, boo freakin’ hoo! Tell it to George Allen who was trailed by a Webb operative, called him “macaca” and had the Wa Po hound him for it...
Goose = gander...
