Pics from yesterday's Lampson Press Conference
Down at the bottom of the page is link to video of the woman who was assaulted by the reTHUGlican.
She is considering pressing charges. I sure hope she does, it might send a message that you can't assault little old ladies, just because she's showing support of her candidate. Their candidate decided to Cut & Run.

Sheesh these creatures are so UnAmerican. No wonder their approval ratings are sinking as low as their IQ.

Was there anyone at the conference from DU?

Something to consider, start carrying pepper spray. A good dose of spray will give them something to cry about.

1. Brazosboomer was
Brazosboomer is Juanita. Susan used to post here quite a lot. Now she devotes her time to her blog.

Here's Juanita herself popping in on the Fort Bend Democratic HQ Grand Opening Saturday thread

2. Spread the message to start carrying pepper spray
let's give these Assho's somethin' to cry about. I saw a segment on the Texas Cable News. They didn't show the woman getting whacked but they did interview Homan BugBoy's campaign manager who encouraged the mob. Sure did remind me of 2000, when DeLay sent the Reichwingers down to stop the recount from happening.

The reporter asked Homan if he organized the event, and after being asked twice he admitted to sending out emails and the StormTroopers.

3. Juanita has a clip linked to her blog
It's TV news coverage. Marsha is the woman wearing the denim hat with campaign buttons. The DeLay thug is the white haired creep in the DeLay campaign shirt. Should be easy to identify. You can see him grab her hat and pull it down over her face in the video. It happens right at the beginning.

The Houston Chronicle reported that Homan organized it too. That story is also linked in the Fort Bend Democrats HQ opening thread.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=180x30105#30122

"Let's give Lampson a parting shot that wrecks his press conference," read a mass e-mail to supporters by DeLay campaign manager Chris Homan.

Homan said he organized the protest through phone calls and e-mails, but DeLay didn't know about it.

Homan said today's protest was a sign of things to come.


Oh of course, DeLay knew nothing about it. He never seems to know what his staff does behind his back. They're involved in so much criminal activity in his congressional and campaign offices and yet he knows nothing. :sarcasm:

5. Amazing!!
I hope Marsha files charges.

I watched the video earlier and even used my arrow keys to track it frame by frame, AMAZING!

What a PUTZ!
n 1: (Yiddish) a fool; an idiot 2: obscene terms for penis (syn: cock, prick, dick, shaft, pecker, peter, tool)

I would have to say, He Fits The Defination.....


Again I recommend Pepper Spray. If someone is going to assault you then you have every right to defend yourself!:grr:

4. What the hell?
The guy is not running! It just goes to show you what knuckle-dragging type of people support Tom DeLay would interfere with a simple press-conference...

No doubt the RAT traitors threw the first punch and now have the cockroach journos eating out of their hands.
Reportedly, the only punches thrown were by DeLay supporters. Too bad the AP picked this up. It will be widely known, now. Embarassing for the Republicans.

Link to earlier article.

6. "Go Back to Beaumont"- oh the irony
We'd love to have Lampson back, and indeed voted in his favor by about 65% for re-election. For some strange reason, though, we ended up with Ted Poe. Couldn't have been because of Delay's re-re-districting, now could it? :think: Chickens coming home to roost, indeed.


It would have been such poetic justice for Lampson to have soundly beaten that jackass in November, since that jackass is the reason my entire area is now completely without representation.
