The Tea Party didn't disrupt the lives of other people in their attempts to make a point. They attended town meetings and lambasted their representatives for pushing a bill none of them wanted. Even with the supposed presence of all the folks with weapons and conceal carry permits, no one was shot, arrested en masse, or overly disruptive - other than the SEIU thugs.

...The House on Tuesday overwhelmingly approved a measure reaffirming In God We Trust as the national motto. The resolution was supported by all House Democratic leaders, including Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.). It attracted only nine no votes, eight from Democrats.

Wow, so Clinton, who actually had lawsuits brought against him for true sexual harassment, was fully fit for the job - yet Cain, who evidently has made suggestive comments or suggestions, somehow is disqualified just by asking women back to his room (supposedly). Evidently the women involved have gone on to highly successful careers - based on the deep investigative reporting by the AP pool staf

At this point I say let them have their trials. Go ahead and try them in Federal court in NY City and see how it goes down. No over the top OT for cops, just provide increased security for the court and go for it. It will be interesting to see the result. EDIT: What will be more fun to watch is the Federal government lose all their cases based on lack of evidence.

The fact that Cain is a cancer survivor himself, so Scheifer's going on about how offended he is at the ad really is nothing more than petty whining. He also pointed out they did not release the ad - but someone found it on their site, or wherever they had parked some ad videos and they released it on the internet. Either way, folks will be offended by a lot of things. So vote your conscience, t
