Rep. Kathy Dahlkemper Gets Threat: “You Will Never Sleep Through The Night Again”
Edited on Thu Mar-25-10 06:49 PM by samplegirl
Two Pennsylvania Congresspeople, John Boccieri and Kathy Dahlkemper, have received threats because of voting for health care reform.

“Having flown missions in and out of Iraq and Afghanistan, I know what it’s like to be in harm’s way,” said Boccieri, an Air Force Reserve pilot based at the Youngstown Air Reserve Station in Vienna. “But I never imagined serving in Congress could feel the same.”

Dalhkemper is an anti-choice Democrat who voted with Bart Stupak for reform. She received a threatening note saying, in part, “You will never sleep through the night again.”

“Regrettably, my office has received a number of emails, letters, faxes and phone calls that are threatening or menacing in nature as a result of my vote in favor of health care reform,” said Ms. Dahlkemper in a statement. “Most of these communications cannot be sourced; while some are coming from Western Pennsylvania, the majority of these inappropriate communications do not originate from my constituents.”

3. Boccieri is from Ohio, not Pennsylvania
Colmes needs to cool it with the Fox Newsroom style sloppiness.
