Professional Lobbyist Thuggery Exposed (Aldon Hynes on Lamont harasser)

[johnfunk]

Begging a modicum of indulgence from the moderators. Yes, this is in the form of a MyDD blog post by the amazing Aldon Hynes, but it's an important story in that it shows how a Lieberman supporter tried to sabotage a Lamont event yeaterday -- and exposes the reprobate "Democrat":

Professional Lobbyist Thuggery

The Meriden, CT paper has this article about the confrontation in Meriden CT yesterday. [NOTE: registration required] They say,

"It was supposed to be a laid-back event and (they) ruined it." "We're just using our right. We're just exercising our rights to enjoy a burger," said Lieberman supporter Alex Hoffman of Boston. Supporters of each candidate debated outside on the sidewalk while many Lieberman supporters continued to badger Lamont, who acknowledged most questions. Richard Goodstein, one of the most vocal Lieberman supporters, repeatedly shouted, "Are you a Bill Clinton Democrat or an Al Sharpton Democrat?" Lamont calmly said he supported both.

So, let's see what we can find out about Richard Goodstein. I assume this picture on Flickr is of Richard Goodstein. With a little searching, I find this article about Richard. The picture sure looks the same.

...

Read the rest. One of the commenters nails it perfectly, based on Aldon's evidence: Rich Goodstein is a Joe Lieberman Democrat, a K Street Democrat, and -- most tellingly -- a FOX News Democrat.
