Based on this video, we feel pretty safe predicting a long, hot summer for Democrats.
Some students with a video camera asked North Carolina Democrat Congressman Bob Ethriddge if he supported the Obama Agenda.
In answer to his own question (“Who are youuuuuuu?”), Ethridge’s answer seems to be “The soon-to-be former Democrat congressman from North Carolina.”
Does anyone doubt that this video will end up becoming part of a commercial for Ethridge’s Republican opponent come November?

I wish the honorable gentleman had grabbed me around the neck. His other hand would have been holding his broken nose. By the way did anyone suggest a breathalyzer? The congressman seemed to be a tad tipsy.
It would be an outrage if this guy and his actions are forgotten. I hope that people are keeping the pressure on, because we have kind of moved on with other stories, but I still think this guy should have been jailed.
Amen KQ. What this man did is assault, pure and simple. I don't know if it rises to a felony, but it was a crime nonetheless. Who ever runs against him should just play that video.
who cares about grammer in a world overcome with IDK,OMG,WTF,LMAO,ETC. The Congressman should be thankful the kids involved only had simple electronics
You want to know who that is Rep.Bob Etheridge? That "student" is the person YOU work for. you work for all of us, But not for long. Regardless of what the student may/or may not have done to provoke him, there is no reason a man in his position should ever get lay his hands on someone in an offencive way. He could have just walked away.
I'm sure Obama is penciling him in for the Brown Shirt Czar come November....
He sounds like he just finished a long liquid lunch.
Ahhh. The 3 martini lunch... those were the days. Now I can only finish 2.
Actually, apparently, he was on his way back to his office from a fundraiser downtown... Perhaps, ya think, it didn't go so well for him?
This congressman sounds like he might be suffering from paranoid delusions. He was probably upset that the kid had caught him without his tin-foil hat and moog-decoder. I half expected him to scream "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"
Nice, Lanny. I almost ended the story with a reference to "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"
It looked to me like he was very well versed in putting his hand behind young mens' necks and pulling them downward. I'm just sayin.......
OMG... I totally was thinking that. I didn't want to say it, but I was totally thinking that this is something that is possibly a sexual thing for him. It looks like he DOES this you know what I mean? ewwww...
LOL!!
You know....it DID look that way.....
Is he a friend of barney's?
No, couldn't be...barney like men's rooms.....
I think Barney also prefers the full nelson. On himself...
LOL--for a second, the rep looked like he was going to lock the kid up in a wrestling move... see the way he threw his hand around the back of the kids neck??
What a freak! I'm absolutely flabbergasted that a U.S. rep would do something like that in public!
SC....he's one of the hijackers of the Dem party....why are you "flabbergasted..."?
Dems are no longer Dems.....they have been hijacked by the liberal/progressive/morons/non-intellects/braindead/.....and the list goes on.....we all know it.....and now they do as well.....
This is going to be status quo until the elections...."don't doubt me..."....
LOL....
C
Well the libs are so "image conscience"... hehheh.
I agree, though, that the Democratic party has been hijacked by the progressives et al--that is very true. The progressives will put on whatever mask that hides them for who they are for as long as they think they can get away with it. I think they've been using the Dem mask since the 1960s or so.
By the way, love how you channeled Rush ;-)
OK I would have called the cops and showed them the video and say he assaulted me, pick him up. I try to be a good person but if someone assaults me like that if I had a weapon I would use it or the ability to drop kick him I would do it. No one treats me like that no one I dont care how old they are. I completely admire this boy he was calm and collected. He could have broken that boy's wrist rather easily. That man is really lucky that boy wasn't violent.
