If a freshman critter WAS assaulted, wouldn't it be all over the news?

Will this be the excuse used by the dems for faking town halls?

Fake town hall = phone in town hall.

Assault just means they were threatened, right? I doubt it's a case where any charges were pressed or, like you said, there would be news about it. So all it is is one Democrat repeating another Democrats claim that some anonymous conservative at a town hall did something that made them feel threatened.

That is what I was thinking.

I would not be at all surprised to see them move to fake town halls in order to avoid their constituents.

Somehow I don't think their effort to silence their opposition is going to work.

I think people need to take the RLC's approach rather than Freedomworks'. Let them say shit that gives them all the rope they need.

To shout at them and use mob tactics is not good for the opposition. Then you can make Pelosi's claims that "tea party" "protesters" were carrying swastika signs.

Of course it's BS, but that doesn't matter. What will people who vote believe. Maybe we should ask that question the other way around...

Last week, a protester hung an effigy of freshman Rep. Frank Kratovil (D-MD) outside his district office,

Gee, I'll bet they weren't nearly as outraged by the effigy of Palin that made national news last October.

These people are professional victims.

This is the original article.

They will indeed incite violence and then blame us, though.
