THIS is what Bush supporters look like
and how they act.



A member of the audience pulls a demonstrator's hair as he forces her out of an auditorium where Resident Bush* was addressing a crowd of supporters at Byers Choice in Colmar, Pa. Thursday Sept. 9, 2004.

13. What's the source of this photo?
If they cared enough to publish/post it, maybe they care enough and have the resources to find out who that sadistic bastard is.

19. So, do you think
One of us should send an e-mail to Ms. Larma inquiring who the hair-pulling sissy in the photo is?

30. I found this on a page of Nick Berg related comments
jlarma@ap.org


The text it's included in is interesting:

http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/mt/mt-comments.cgi?entry_id=3893

CONTEMPT FOR THE PRIVACY OF A GRIEVING FATHER.

Jacqueline Larma's contemptible invasion of the privacy of the grieving father of Nick Berg by photographing him in his front yard after he collapsed at the news of the beheading of his son in Iraq is so inhumanly callous that I thought it might be appropriate she receive some mail from privacy oriented viewers.

Her e-mail address is: jlarma@ap.org

LINK to her Photo:


CAPTION to her Photo
Michael Berg, left, collapses to the ground in front of the family house in West Chester, Pa., Tuesday May 11, 2004 and is comforted by his son, David, after learning the details of the killing in Iraq (news - web sites) of his other son Nick. A video posted Tuesday on an Islamic militant Web site showed the beheading of an American civilian, who identified himself as Nick Berg, in Iraq, and said the execution was carried out by an al-Qaida affiliated group to avenge the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by American soldiers. (AP Photo/Jacqueline Larma)

The photo can be seen at AP affiliated sites.

21. i just saw video of it on my local noon 'news'
that thug pulled on her hair and pushed on her back all the way out of the room. 'President' AWOL-in-Chief smirked all through he incident, leaning over the podium, waiting patiently for his minions, his tax-payers, silence the seditionists

the Freedom of Speech squasher and his thug buddies looked like civilians, not SS...

24. Well, some of us live pretty close to Chalfont and Colmar...
and are considerably younger and bigger than the grayheaded pussy holding her hair.

He had better hope I don't remember what he looks like. I have never had a problem smacking the shit out of a man for mistreating a woman.

I had clients get a week of jail for less than this.

25. Another one from the other day
Fight Breaks Out Over Kerry Veterans

Police: Man Attacks Participants In Windsor Parade

A member of a Christian group has been fired after allegedly punching several veterans marching for presidential candidate John Kerry in Monday's Harvest Festival parade in Windsor, Colo.

Russell Laughlin, 40, of Nunn, was a member of the northern Colorado FamilyLife Marriage Conference and was walking ahead of 175 members of Veterans for Kerry.

According to police, Laughlin was handing out pamphlets for his group while making loud insults about Kerry to the crowd gathered to watch the parade.

After about a mile, the veterans group asked Laughlin to go back to his own group, but he refused and instead stood in front of the Kerry group, refusing to move, according to a Chris Humphries, an Army veteran and Kerry campaign employee.

That's when a fight erupted and Laughlin grabbed a veteran by his shirt and started swinging, according to Gary Fedel, a Lakewood, Colo. member of Veterans for Kerry. Humphries said Laughlin then turned around punched her in the mouth.

Police arrested Laughlin on charges of misdemeanor assault.

The FamilyLife Marriage Conference said it dismissed the volunteer, as a result of the melee.

FamilyLife is an organization that holds conferences to bring married couples closer together

27. Miserable, cowardly, sadistic son of a bitch...
I pity his family. That's probably the kind of "discipline" he practives on his children... hell, on his wife, too.

He's having way too much fun. I'd like to have five minutes in a dark alley with this bullying lardass...

:mad:

31. They are actually acting much better than in 1933
I suspect they will be acting like (but not EXACTLY like) that again.
