Fox News contributor punched in face at pro-union protests in Michigan [W:867]

GUYS! GUYS! Settle down. Relax. Chill out.

It don't matter to me who threw the first punch as long as the FOXNews dude got punched in the face before it was all over. That would be AWESOME!
Oy vey!

I live in a right to work state and the wages here haven't gone up since the 1970s when they passed the law. My sister has worked at her bank job for thirty years and still only makes a lousy $13 an hour even though she's been promoted to VP of her division. I don't know how she does it. I had to move to California to make a six figure income. I could never have made that much here in a right to work state unless I owned the company. Be careful what you wish for, Samhain.

I'm sure we can both come up with anecdotal evidence to support our points, but your sister sounds like she needs a new line of work. I made $13 an hour 15 years ago, when I was in high school, carrying drywall, for a non-union construction company.

And moving to California to gain higher wages is rather counter productive, considering the cost of living increase that comes with it.
 
Or Crowder grabbed/shoved him.

Layin hands on somebody is assault. Doesn't have to be a blow.

MMA guy in a confrontational situation...
Watch the video. It couldn't have happened that way.

Meh, his head wound looks a popped pimple.

I remember when Geraldo Rivera dude got cold cocked down in Janesville by that KKK dude. He got some big ratings that week.

I would love to see that Rachel Maddow chick rip off the clothes of that blond bimbo on FOX, with the killer legs, on live TV. And then watch Bill O'reilly make Rachel Maddow sit down to pee and play Barbi dolls. Just an all out, knock down, drag out catfight. Just ANYTHING to break this post election boredom. LOL!

I thought that was a professional wrestler, who punched him during an interview where Rivera kept saying that wrestling was fake.

Actually, I did quite well in California thank you very much. As for my sister, I'm sorry I mentioned her to you. Geezus. :roll:

It happenned more than once. It was his schtick, part of how he got famous. Like Beck pulling out the tears. Ratings near nonexistent? Quick, someone punch Gerry in the face!

I wonder if he received combat pay from Fox News.
 
WOW, just WOW...you do know who the EPI is...right?

Board of Directors | Economic Policy Institute

Lookie there of the 30 on the board of directors 11 are/were union officials the rest are part of way left leaning organizations. You think that may have jaded their assertions?

They're not the only ones mentioned, and if the followed proper methodology, who they are doesn't matter. It is after all, a study.

He was like CNN's Anderson Cooper. Deadly hurricane hitting the coast? Send Anderson. Violent uprising in some Bunphuk Egyptian town? Better tell Anderson to pack a suitcase! Bombing Iraq? Make some reservations in that downtown Bagdad hotel for ol' AC. Sure, pick on the gay guy.

I don't know if I'd want to see Maddow pee but I wouldn't mind seeing her and Kelley in a brawl. Or better yet I'd like to see congress break out in a bust out bar room brawl. Who knows maybe it would improve their ratings too.

You don't think AC has a choice?

IMO, AC is a hardcore journalist and wants to be there to cover those stories firsthand.

I believe AC is generally an excellent journalist, and this is from someone who leans right. I could care less if he is gay. As a matter of fact I have more respect for him now then I did when he came out of the closet because he doesn't make a big deal out of his sexuality unlike Rosie, Rachel Maddow, Helen DeGeneres, Barney Frank etc.

I may not agree with AC all the time with his opinions but I certainly respect the guy - he definitely has journalistic integrity.

I'll second that.
 
Do you think everyone living in both these states is a democrat?

No, but I figured I wiuld jump on the idiotic, uninformed generalization bandwagon
 
Aw, come on Grant I expected better from you....though I'm not sure why. This is a tired old argument brought up Conservatives who are either in denial or clueless about their own political history.

It may well be tried, or well be old, but it is also true.
Southern Democrats started leaving the party in the 1960s because LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act into law. In the 1970 - 1980s the Neo Conservatives left the Democrat party because they thought Jimmy Carter was too weak on military expansion and defense. Why don't you try reading something besides right wing propaganda and revisionist history? That stuff will rot yer brain.

That's really not an argument about racism and certainly you don't believe that LBJ was the one who brought civil rights to America. Ad hom comments about me just don't work, btw, but there are more effective ways. Proving me wrong is always the best.. I'd much rather deal with the issues honestly so if you can make any accurate historical claims that would counter that video then let's discuss them.

Thanks for the rather back handed compliment, though I don't believe I let you down. We just disagree.
 
LOL You're getting sick? Hey, why don't you try explaining why there isn't one single black person in the current Republican congress?

Do you believe that's evidence of racism in the Republican Party? Is that all you have to go on to charge other people with racism?

Perhaps it's better to look at the actual ideologies of the parties in these times as well their history.

Can you see where 'Affirmative Action', for example, is a form of racism?
 
I saw the video and watched the clown interviewed. The dude asked to get punched by the old-timer that punched him.
 
There aren't any blacks in the Republican congress, Mr. Nick. Thats why you can't find any.

If Dems treat blacks as second class citizens then why is there a Black president of the United States?

There have been many Blacks in positions of power within the Republican Party and we can see how these Blacks, such as Clarence Thomas or Michael Steel, are treated should they stray from the Democrat plantation.

Nonsense. So, people that disagree with your point of view are "asking for it"?
