The protester was shoved and dragged out of the rally.
ANOTHER protester outside was abused and pushed to the ground, then arrested as seen in this ABC clip:

24. now you are just being mean
the teacan klan is actually pretty integrated today. I don't know if you noticed that Sarah Palin is not the only woman and there are some black folks in their ranks too. 50 years ago the women folk were left to tend to the kids while dad did some politickin under the cover of the night and those white hoods of course while black participation was restricted to being props at the ceremony.

So they are slowly embracing liberal ideology such as diversity ... they just do it at their own pace and their own way, give them some time and they will be OK with "socialist healthcare" too especially because they will be the ones needing it after all the stress they go through worrying about armageddon and marxism ;)

33. Yes, wait till they realize
what they have actually been fighting for. Obviously they do not know. I suppose it will dawn on them one day.

What kind of a country do they want to live in?

Unlikely, true. But the mind still reels at what's possible in the hands of 'folks' like these...

The Teacan Klan is not a very tolerant bunch.

6. Why was he arrested?
This was pretty mild compared to the many town hall meetings where "patriots" excercised their freedom of speech by drowning out congressmen and senators, spewed rude comments, and denied others an opportunity to speak. They should have been arrested! The people who mistreated this protester as he was leaving and had him on the floor should have been arrested.

15. LOL! "I like Ron Paul"!
that says it all. another one of the confused conservatives out there who bought the free market bullshit for years probably from mom and dad and still doesn't get it now that their world is crumbling and libertarianism is so thoroughly discredited by history. With that said KUDOS, the guy has balls.

7. Sarah Palin thanks John McCain for protecting our rights to protest by
spending 5.5 years as a POW while the guy is kicked out? Huh? Shouldn't he have been allowed to stay? What the hell is she trying to say?

9. McCain didn't want this to happen. Every time she speaks
he looks like he wants to go to the bathroom. The knows for sure "she" instigates the hate speech.

42. A quote from the article:
Gotta love this one!

Meantime, McCain supporters called some of the protestors rude and wondered why they would attend a rally for McCain if they don't agree with him.


After all, he didn't get a corporate sponsored memo from Dick Army telling him how the disrupt the meeting, did he?


These people are unbelievable!

Get them up against the wall.

... Cause they're wedged inside some pretty high "come fuck me pumps" accompanied by a leather jacket?

Just guessing...

20. What I see here
is mob mentality. The speaker whipping the crowd into action by singling out the protester and then not saying anything to the thugs who escort the brave soul out of the venue.

Fucking Sarah Palin is becoming more dangerous to the democratic process, in that no one is allowed to rebuke what she says while she is surrounded by hillbillies and terrorists.

Then she condones the use of violent force to incapacitate and silence her opponents. She is a fucking political hazard waiting to happen.

22. Well, a way to test that theory is right around the corner...
... She's looking for traction any way possible, so I'm sure she'll be more than glad to keep whipping up those assholes until they "target" people with those crosshairs.

Scary, isn't it?

23. Oh what a difference
:-) Oh what a difference between the way Barack Obama reacts
to protestors and hers. Our President shows such dignity. Just
imagine if she was the President. Democrats wouldn't even be
considered part of this Country.

27. The insanity of the RW...Dems say those that acted like assholes at...
Town Hall meetings had the Right to speak up, but an individual at a McCain/Palin "rally" gets arrested...these are tho the very same idiots that speak so highly of Free Speech...:wtf:

If McCain or Palin would have any decency, they would have intervened when the kid was being pushed around...it appeared to me there might be a case for assault against at least 2 of the people in the upper tier.

40. Yeah...be sure to milk that "POW cow" for the old geezer.
I'm not in favor of hecklers at rallies. People go to listen to their political views being expressed. To have some loud mouth scream out crap is nothing more than irritating, and it accomplishes NOTHING.

That being said, he should have been escorted out, and that was that. But to have him pinned to the ground, screaming like a stuck pig sort of confuses me. WHY?

Here's hoping geezer pants gets beat by the psycho-teabagger.

They can't take anyone talking shit to the shit talkers. If anyone would have worn a gun to a repuke rally they'd get shot dead on the spot. Must be the sheeple that got thrown out didn't sign a waiver of support that says you'll be quiet, shake your head yes to everything they say, and clap on cue. McCain the gimp and Palin the stupid.
