Congressman Etheridge from NC

I have to say, even though I may have not always agreed with every single thing this Congressman has backed, he is one hell of a political leader and I admire him fully.

I also have to say that these are political leaders....It's not Paris Hilton or Lindsay Lohan; stop playing Hollywood paparazzi...If you don't like how they do things, get them where it hurts- the polls.
I personally feel that Bob did nothing wrong. What would you do if you were being hounded by a strange camera man on a public street? Especially being a political figure, you don't ever know if you are on the tip of an assassination in this crazy world. Bob did the same thing anyone with a back bone would do....A politician with a back bone....that is what people don't like....

Hey camera man, put on your big boy pants next time you plan to go to Washington and act like a smart ass....

Rock on Bob....Rock on.....

Comment by Michelle Picarella on June 16, 2010 at 2:07pm: You are right, it was not a bad question at all.....but it seems very fishy to not answer who they are and to have their faces blurred out....If it's not something fishy, I do not see why they feel the need to hide their identity....
I have had many interactions with Congressman Etheridge and he is honestly, a wonderful caring man and a fine politician that cares for his people...But they never show the shining moments via web and tv.....
Nice to meet you Mandy....thanks for the comments! (people don't have to agree...nothing wrong with agreeing to disagree!) Hope to see your blogs soon. :)

Comment by Mandy on June 16, 2010 at 2:01pm: hey it's your blog, but the worst thing the kid did was ask a question that was not a bad question. If you are a Congressman, you should be able to stop and answer or say I don't have time and keep walking. Instead since he was drunk (or just a had a really bad southern accent) he decided to grab the kid and almost put his arm around his neck. Not a nice man and EXACTLY what is wrong with politicians. He was lucky Knotts from SC mad a bigger ass and stole the spotlight. Anyhoo we can agree to disagree, I am Mandy nice to meet you Michelle. maybe I will blog some too ;)

Comment by Michelle Picarella on June 15, 2010 at 8:35pm: Anyone being recorded has the right to know who the people are....They chose to be smart butts and not give a real valid answer, so they got what they asked for....the end....

Comment by Mandy on June 15, 2010 at 5:31pm: The kids were not asking the kind of question to make someone grab them it a violent way, especially a Congressman. It doesn't even seem like he listened to the question, he just didn't want anyone talking to him. To me he seemed intoxicated. I had a uncle that sounded just like that when he was drunk. This was uncalled for no matter what anyone says. There is right and wrong, and Bob was wrong!
