Now, before I hear you people on the left cry "how can you say that? the Republicans are the mean ones!" I have some evidence to offer courtesy of youtube.com.
I have two clips to share with you folks. They are of the same incident but from different angles. Here is what happened: Two young men, ask Etheridge is he supports the "Obama agenda" and nothing more. They aren't abrasive or rude in ANY manner but what is this jerks response? He grabs the kids arm and demands to know "who are you?" and even after the guys explain what they are doing he STILL abuses the young man. The young man asks REPEATEDLY for the Jerk to let go of his arm and the jerk only responds by asking and demanding who the guys are. He apparently "has a right to know" who they are but they don't have the right to ask a simple question without being assaulted.
Exhibit A:
Now, in this second clip we see the same incident from a different angle. Now we can see what a bully looks like when he's doing what he likes best: Picking on people who know if they fight back THEY can be put in jail. He even steals the kids camera or phone that he's holding.
Exhibit B:
Now, after you watch these clips you should understand what we're dealing with here. These people are bullies. They have a god complex that makes them think they are above us and we have no right to question them. Etheridge assaulted this young man WITHOUT reason and the fact the kid didn't defend himself, which he could have done, shows the character of the young man in question.
Now, I'm not without the ability to let shit for brains assholes like this Etheridge jerk speak his peace. From his website:
“I have seen the video posted on several blogs. I deeply and profoundly regret my reaction and I apologize to all involved. Throughout my many years of service to the people of North Carolina, I have always tried to treat people from all viewpoints with respect. No matter how intrusive and partisan our politics can become, this does not justify a poor response. I have and I will always work to promote a civil public discourse.”
Rep. Bob Etheridge (NC-02)
What? Are you serious? The ONLY reason why you regret this, sir, is because YOU GOT CAUGHT! Asshole. This whole statement is a pile of shit Mr. Etheridge. This was IN NO WAY intrusive and your response was WAY beyond poor is was down right violent and disgusting. This 'apology' doesn't work, jerk. No, you don't get off with this. I'm sick and tired of every time you Democrats do shit like this you offer some lame ass apology and then you get a pass. Not this time, no way.
You do not get a pass from me and I hope the American people. You attacked this young man and you assaulted him. IN PUBLIC. As I said before the ONLY reason you're apologizing about this is because your stupid ass got caught. You tried to show what a power man you are and terrify a young man who was DOING HIS CIVIC DUTY IN ASKING YOU A STRAIGHT FORWARD QUESTION and you attack him.
This is BEYOND disgusting. You don't deserve to serve this people you abuse so willingly. I shit on your apology. Why? Because, like you, your apology is a pile of shit and is, as of now, IGNORED.
Here's what you CAN do, however: GO HOME. Your services are no longer required. You're an asshole who openly abuses his constituents for doing nothing more than what people like you said we were SUPPOSED to do during the Bush years. So, fuck you and fuck your apology.
Now, here is what I would like to see... I'm going to post his contact information in hopes that people flood this jerks offices and email with demands to step down and get a real job. Naturally and as always I want you to keep your words clean, no insults, swearing and certainly no threats. Leave that to the left and the Democrats. Keep it clean, direct and as polite as possible. Also, if you would like, you can forward me a copy of your email and any responses you get and I'll gladly post them here.

Also feel free to contact him on Facebook, of course you have to add this bully to your list in order to post anything but sometimes you have to take shit to deal with it properly.
You can go to his website and email him through there as well.
It's way past time we started to put a stop to these actions. THEY WORK FOR US and we don't have to put up with it.
Last summer We, The People started pushing back. Let's not stop now.
UPDATE (6.14.2010 7:08PM)
I found this on CNN.Com:
"The truth is I had a long day, it was the end of the day, almost sunset," he told reporters on Capitol Hill. "But that's not the issue. The issue is I apologize for my actions and the people of North Carolina know me well and I apologize to these young men as well."
Oh, but that IS the issue. What gives you the right to manhandle ANYONE regardless of the kind of day you're having. You seemed alright in the clip until you were asked a simple question. My guess is you wanted to distract and were to stupid to do it right. OR, as someone recently pointed out, you were simply following the orders of BARACK OBAMA. At a rally while running to ruin this nation, Obama told a group of supporters
