    Absolutely serious. In fact, I commend the Congressman for not shoving that camera down that kid's throat. I sure would have.

    Jesus Christ, is it April fool's day today? I had no idea who that freak was and if it hadn't said Dem Congressman in the title I wouldn't have thought anything different about this video. I don't think most of you in this thread can say the same.

    You would have went to prison and rightly so.

    You're probably right. Which is why I commend the Congressman for keeping some semblance of control over his temper.

    And this is entirely beside the fact that I think that most, if not all, Congressmen probably deserve to be be in prison for something.

    The last sentence is the smartest thing I have read in this thread.

    Wasn't really difficult if you exclude my personal attacks.

    He can't help himself. He's a brainwashed liberal sheep and has no mind of his own left.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ WOW

    I need to go have myself checked out by a psychiatrist.

    I really can't figure out what the rest of the people on here are watching, I might be delusional. What I see is some dork who looks to be about 5'8" tall wearing a suit and asking a congressman a simple question on camera. Then I see the congressman go crazy and assault the dork. Weird how most of the other posters in this thread think the congressman should have beaten the dork in the suit half to death. I must be losing it.

    You never had it. Even real papparazzi, when they harass show business celebrities, identify themselves. This was fake, a setup.

    That should be their campaign slogan: "A New Mistake for America"

    The answer is: there are things less popular than democrats and republicans.

    Setup or not, the Congressman was an idiot. If we was going to engage the student, he should have done so respectfully, even moreso given the presence of the camera, regardless of the legitimacy (or lack thereof) of the question or the questioner. If he was incapable of doing so, he should have just continued walking, perhaps making a dismissive comment such as, "This is not the time or place for this kind of question." I agree with bodyman on this one--there is absolutely no justification for this kind of physical response to a (n admittedly loaded) question posed by a nobody, especially from a public figure who has a responsibility to maintain a positive public image.

    Did you see how close that camera got to his face? And did you hear the question? He didn't grab the kid to cause harm, he grabbed the kid's hand in order to get the camera out of his face.

    Shouldn't be putting his hands on him. They got even more than they wanted for him; they must be thrilled.
