Freshman Congressman physically assaulted
http://thinkprogress.org /
As lobbyist-run groups encourage conservative activists to “rattle†members of Congress at local town hall events, Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA), the president of the freshman Democratic class has revealed that “at least one freshman Democrat†has already been “physically assaulted at a local event†by right-wing activists. Connolly warned that conservative groups had taken things to a “dangerous level“.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6226259So some unnamed socialist claims to have been assaulted at a "local event"? Believe me folks, if a dem congressman were assaulted, unless it was in retribution by some little girl's father, it would be trumpeted day and night through every outlet of the MSM. This is a disinformation campaign by a socialist organization that sees its latest plan for socialized medicine falling into deep trouble.

1. That's it, time to start rounding them up
If they go off in a meeting, arrest every damned one of them.
The only rounding up DUmmies do is when they try to convert grams of dope into ounces.

2. Shouting people down and physical violence too? This is facism plain and simple.
Or maybe "facism" is a type of discrimination? DUmmies have already condemned "looksism", so maybe "facism" is a subset. Then I guess we'd also have to contend with "boobsism".
