TampaBay.com has a great photo sequence of a woman slapping a man in the face at yesterday's explosive town hall meeting in Tampa held by Rep. Kathy Castor and the goons from SEIU and Obama's Organizing for America.
What the Tribune failed to disclose was the fact that the woman doing the slapping is a local Democratic party official, specifically the treasurer of the East Hillsborough County Democratic Party Club.
In the eight-photo sequence, two men are seen arguing face to face, with one man wagging his finger in the face of the other. A woman standing behind the finger-wagger reaches around him and starts to push the other man. She then steps forward and give the other man an open palm slap across the face. According to the photo captions, the woman, Karen Miracle, claims she was protecting her husband, Garry Miracle, who supposedly has a heart condition, from the other man, Barry Osteen.
In none of the photos is the slapped man seen extending his arms or raising his hands.

Yup....that won’t make the news.
We’re winning!!
From Pelosi/Obama on down, the Hopey-Changers are being frightened into more and more irrational rhetoric and action...
That my friend is what’s known in legal parlance as “assault and battery”.
This is an intentional tort. I’d say the fellow needs to hire a good trial lawyer to sue her Liberal ass off....
Incredible! Clearly she AND her husband are the angry/out of control ones!!!
Hope he has been instructed to file charges, against her and David Axelrod for telling his thugs to hit harder (inciting violence).
People should be aware of this sort of thing. My inclination (I'm no tough guy) would be that if someone put their hands on me, I would react very forcefully. I wouldn't put up with that crap. BUT these people are looking for that reaction and probably have compatriots rready to sue (or stomp) anyone who reacts to the Leftist's provocation.
They've got insidious tactics.
Exactly! They can’t argue their point effectively so the obamabots resort to violence. So I guess the media is right when they say there’s violence....thing is the obama supporters are the ones acting out with violent aggression.
Sue her!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely. Anyone filing suit based on the violence perpetrated by these thugs needs to name Axelrod as a co-defendant.
And this will make the rounds if not the alphabet networks. Just send this to everyone you know!
Was she led out in handcuffs....if not WHY NOT?
If that old bitch slapped me I’d told her she got her one free shot...the next one and she’ll learn NEVER to make that mistake again...
It is STILL assault and battery. We NEED to CONSTANTLY file charges.
I don’t think that was much of a slap. Maybe a face push....
Good to know she’s a hands on person. She’ll need to give her hubby CPR everyday if Obamacare passes.
I faced union thugs when I was young, and because I was young and foolish I backed down. I faced union thugs again many times once I was older, and I have never again backed down in the face of bullies. Sometimes I wonder whether I am overreacting to the tone set by obama and his minions, but if it looks like a thug, acts like a thug, threatens like a thug, and strikes those who oppose it like a thug ... Nope, I’m not overreacting. We are facing pure evil, a power grab by those who want to control their neighbors. We must not back down. Ever.
Democrat punks in action.
Guaranteed they’re prone toward hiding behind some sort of victim label which gives them the right to do anything they want.
IMHO
Just amazing.
Good catch, bud.
There's a good chance that they've set the situation up so that their initial assault becomes "nothing" while your reaction becomes highly "actionable".
Holding one's temper and filing a lawsuit is the right way to go.
Is she married to the fat. out-of-shape guy? Given the pathetic physical appearance of both the assailants, I would be inclined to ignore it as the hysterical reaction of some government-employee union types.
