Fox Contributor Assaulted By Union "Thugs"

:lol: Talk about deluded Dems.

So all the millions of people who who stopped looking last year are seniors retiring? The official goverment numbers suggest it is only 25% due to retirements.

And that many people retiring just puts more strain on an already overburdened entitlement system.

Soooo...I'm a baby boomer (barely!). When I get laid off after the start of the year due to my company cutting costs because of Obamacare I'm taking myself out of the work force voluntarily, huh? Gotcha. Keep drinking that Kool-Aid...

Poor baby... It must be so heartbreaking to be laid off because your employer might get a discount for carrying you under ObamaCare...

I'd be soooo upset....

Peaceful Union Protesters Assaulted by FauxNews THUG.

Witness: Fox Contributor Goaded Protesters Before Being Punched

A Lansing man who joined the protests Tuesday against Michigan's controversial right-to-work legislation claims that Steven Crowder, the Fox News contributor who was punched by a protester, had provoked and insulted pro-union activists prior to the high-profile scuffle.

Ken Spitzley, a state agriculture department employee, told HuffPost that he walked to the protest at the state Capitol during a break from work and that he witnessed Crowder getting in protesters' faces and goading them.

"He was just after everybody," said the 56-year-old Spitzley, a procurement technician whose workplace is represented by the United Auto Workers. "There was no question he was there just to start a fight, to start some kind of trouble."

According to Spitzley, Crowder had an exchange with two pro-union men wearing blue jeans, hard hats and Carhartt clothing. One of them asked Crowder what he did for a living, according to Spitzley.

"He said, 'I sell soap. I should sell you some,'" Spitzley said, quoting Crowder.

Spitzley said he did not witness the punching incident or the exchange leading up to it. But in Spitzley's estimation, Crowder "wasn't going to go home until he got punched."

More right wing "journalism"...go create the story you wish existed without you.

This guy was not there representing FoxNews...he wasn't representing anyone but himself. Once he had the story, then Fox listed him as a contributor. This story is a matter or cutting, editing, pasting, rewriting the reality of what happened...which works perfect for the conservatives - that's what they do with the Bible, the Constitution...pick and choose the parts that fit their agenda, edit/cut/ignore everything else.

Yep didn't look like he was reporting, looked more like he was involving himself, which is a no no in objective journalism.

did not say that, but you are lumping the 13% over the age of 65 who are retiring into your exaggerations. And now you want to deny them the benefits that they have paid into for.

I am not denying them anything. But Obama isn't delivering them the low unemployment rate he promised them after a record stimulus package.

Yeah, and Bush promised some WMD's that he didn't deliver on...

Whoa!!... A campaign promise that is slower than we'd like, but already surpasses the previous moron's track-record! Imagine that!

Gee, it was already up to 7.8% the day he took office from the Idiot Son, and it creeped up to almost 10, thanks to the teabaggers blocking everything... Now, it's 7.7%, and going down... Sux to be you, don't it...? :biggrin: ?

And did I mention, YOU LOST... And it's going to be a LOOOOOONG FOUR YEARS....

Pretty sad that you are pleased about 7.7% when millions less people have jobs than four years ago. With the baby boomers retiring in droves unemployment should be at record lows but Barack still has it at historical highs.
