Protesters that were part of an angry mob that included many ACORN supporters nearly knocked New York state Sen. James Alesi, a Republican, down on the floor and spat in the face of his chief of staff, according to reports.
The protesters were reportedly upset that two Democratic senators decided to caucus with Republicans, a move that when finalized by the state Senate would hand Republicans control of it. Majority Democrats have shut down the chamber to prevent the transfer of power.
Meanwhile, Pennsylvania state Rep. Stephen Barrar, a Republican, is circulating a petition calling on his state's attorney general to investigate ACORN.
The Democrats say Obamacare opponents are a mob. Are they right?

Thugocratic party. ACORN is the enforcement arm of the Demo (thugo) cratic party.
Daisy| 6.12.09 @ 7:14PM
Shouldn't the Justice Dept. investigate this incident? Or will Holder give these ACORN thugs a pass just like the Black Panther thugs?

Yeah it's o.k. when it's just us little people out here, getting elections stolen by ACORN it's all different when it's a Senator getting mistreated, eh?

It didn't say 'almost spat in the face'.

@ V Fitzpatrick
Right, Missy. Another longer AP story repeats the spitting incident:
http://www.newsday.com/news/local/wire/newyork/ny-bc-ny--nysenatecoup0611jun11,0,5274230.story
"Republican Sen. James Alesi of Monroe County said he fell to one knee because of the crush of the crowd and said his top staffer was spat upon."
DON Corleone| 6.12.09 @ 10:40PM
Vadum...you seriously missed your calling. You need to be on the comedy channel, this stuff is too funny! Anyone who believes the unfounded crap is just sad. "Spitting" incidents...nice reports, where's the real proof?
Quit the fear mongering, it's not very becoming, even of someone with as little integrity as you.
CC Ryder| 6.12.09 @ 10:48PM
Matt, more LIBERAL TOLERANCE on display by the DON on behalf of all fascist liberals everywhere.
Scum sucking pieces of human garbage. Boot all your @sses out in 2010!!
Matthew Vadum| 6.12.09 @ 11:25PM
DON Corleone: This is based on Associated Press reports. Are you saying they're lying? Or are you saying spitting on someone doesn't count as assault?
And you are right about me missing my calling: I should have been a history or a poli.sci. prof -- that way I could've routinely humiliated superficial morons like you in front of an audience.
Fionnagh| 6.12.09 @ 11:50PM
LOL, Don - sometimes I come here just to laugh out loud over the moronic troll comments. So glad you didn't disappoint! You probably think the scene on link attached here is also "unfounded crap...." Actually, what IS "crap" is the fact that the charges were dropped...

I take it this mob was arrested and charged with assualt on an elected official and his staff?
We had best get ready. The Democrat Party is a criminal enterprise. They do not beleive in elections and the rule of law is not one of their "progressive" values.

ACORN brownshirts are paid to demonstrate - they have $9 billion in the Abu Hussein's stimulus bill to do exactly that. Our Community Organizer-in-Chief knows well what he is doing; in the defunct USSR (thanks, RR) that word "soviet" translates roughly as "community organization".

First off Mastervadum (say it very fast), you don't have enough wit to ever come close to insulting a moron like me. 2, I find it hysterical that someone who repeatedly distorts history once aspired to teach it. 3, if some of you all got more action in the bed, maybe you wouldn't be spending your miserable lives arguing w/ people like me or blogging on a site 20 people read. Good luck!

The truth has to come out folks. Not only are these people stealing elections, they are reportedly working with underground gay radical groups to force children to wear dresses at public schools.
I think we should institute public hangings again and make these bastards pay. I'm glad that people like Matt Vadum are around to give us the strength and blueprint for violently repelling these social maggots.

Better Tabs need to be kept on these guys. Unlike the left we don't politicize every damn incident. Unfortunately that needs to change. From WSJ:
Mr. Marks's nonprofit organization, Neighborhood Assistance Corp. of America, has emerged as one of the loudest scourges of the banking industry in the post-bubble economy. It salts its Web site with photos of executives it accuses of standing in the way of helping homeowners -- emblazoning "Predator" across their photos, picturing their homes and sometimes including home phone numbers. In February, NACA, as it's called, protested at the home of a mortgage investor by scattering furniture on his lawn, to give him a taste of what it feels like to be evicted.
In the 1990s, Mr. Marks leaked details of a banker's divorce to the press and organized a protest at the school of another banker's child. He says he would use such tactics again. "We have to terrorize these bankers," Mr. Marks says.
