Freeper, Malia Obama basher & serial asshole Kristinn weighs in on Tea Party "N-word" incident
Here's what Kristinn blew out of his ass on FR:



Hallelujah! New Dem Claim: "It was a chorus" calling John Lewis a n***** at Tea Party Protest
Saturday, March 20, 2010 | Kristinn

A Democrat Congressman who says he was a few yards behind Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) as he was walking between Congressional buildings today when Lewis was allegedly called a n***** by Tea Party protesters says that it was actually a chorus of voices calling Lewis a n*****.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo) is quoted by McClatchy Newspapers as saying he "distinctly heard" Lewis called a n*****:

"It was a chorus," Cleaver said. "In a way, I feel sorry for those people who are doing this nasty stuff - they're being whipped up. I decided I wouldn't be angry with any of them."

Politico has reported that Lewis claimed it was only one protester who called him a n*****:

***

No video of these claimed incidents have surfaced. The n***** charges have not been confirmed by anyone so far, except for those making the claims.

Kinda funny how this boisterous but peaceful protest:



has morphed into this without a video camera having recorded a thing based on claims that a handful of jerks in a crowd of thousands acted like jerks:



Politico reported that when Rep. Frank was called a homo or something, the heckler was swiftly dealt with by Tea Party protesters:

Frank, who is gay, was leaving the Longworth House Office Building when a man yelled a charged homophobic slur at the Massachusetts lawmaker.

Other protesters quickly admonished the shouter, with one woman yelling back, "We don't need that."

Given that example, there is no way a "chorus" of protesters chanted n***** at John Lewis with nobody shouting them down after the first n***** was allegedly uttered.

2. Someone is going to have a data stream of that
And it's probably going to emerge in about three days.

8. They do, and they wear white sheets, military fatigues, and regular street clothes while teabagging
Teabaggers: the New KKK, made for prime time TV.

20. She seemed like a nice person, and does not talk like that at all in real life.
I saw her on local TV (she lives about an hour north of me) explaining that she did the whole crazy fundie shtick in order earn money to pay for medical treatment.

Was the medical treatment the gastric bypass she wanted?

22. I believe so.
I believe it was for gastric bypass, as her weight was becoming a serious health issue.

Marguerite Perrin lives in Ponchatoula, Louisiana (an hour north northwest of New Orleans), and in the interview she did not have a thick 'redneck' accent.

5. So Kristinn is calling Cleaver a LIAR??
Maybe Kristinn knows who spit on Cleaver. Or does he think the Capitol cops lied?

Hey Kristinn,

FUCK YOU YOU RACIST DICKWAD!

9. John Lewis has been called that before
And by folks wearing sheriff's badges and their deputies, as well as other civic leaders. I'm pretty sure getting hollered at by this rabble doesn't faze him a bit. Lewis has bled for this country, and these pukes have shit on it.

10. I, for one, am glad to see that this FINALLY coming out.
Teabaggers are simply pissed that a BLACK MAN is in the White House.
These bigots have to be outed, and I am glad it is finally coming to the surface.
I just want to see the day when they start calling Obama the n word. Then there surely will be riots.

13. Maybe this defense would have worked before the spit.
But after the spit, why should anyone believe their spin?

(Of course we don't believe it, but I'm talking about independent observers...)
