Maybe it is my Catholic upbringing but Ive always been cursed with a bit too much empathy. It is often difficult to witness people bearing the full weight of the consequences of their decisions even when it is richly deserved. (And in the case of House Democrats few have ever been more deserving of reaping everything theyve sown.) Were human after all and witnessing people on the cusp of realizing that theyve lost everything can be difficult.
Last week Democrat Congressman Bob Etheridge (D-NC2) attended a fundraiser headlined by Speaker Nancy Pelosi. He was asked by some students on the street whether he supported the Obama Agenda." He didnt take it well.
Expect more of this.
The hard progressive left captured the Democrat majority in Congress and forced them to enact a fantasy grab-bag of legislation that is increasingly unpopular with the American public. Were on the cusp of a deeper recession millions of unemployed Americans have no prospect for work taxes are about to spike higher and weve maxed out the national credit card.
The Democrats were given a chance to run government and theyve only succeeded in running it into the ground.
So yeah Democrats who are up for reelection this November are a bit testy.
Fortunately Rep. Etheridge isnt one of those gerry-mandered political welfare queens. According to the Cook Report his district is an R2 district. He has a credible opponent. Check her out here.
Lets recap what we saw on this video. A sitting Congressmana presumed living extension of James Madison and other founding fatherswas asked on a public street whether he supported the Presidents agenda.
His response was to hit away a video camera and assault a student.
The age of Pericles this aint.
It is going to be a long hot summer. But youve been shown a politician who can be beaten this November.
Act accordingly.
