Congressman Grimm Threatens To Throw Reporter Off Balcony

Following President Obama’s State of the Union address, Rep. Michael Grimm, a Republican from New York City’s Staten Island, was asked for his thoughts by reporter Michael Scotto.

After Grimm finished answering, Scotto added, “And just finally before we let you go, since we have you here: We haven’t had a chance to kind of talk about some of the…”

“I’m not speaking about anything that’s off-topic,” Grimm interrupted. “This is only about the president’s speech tonight. Thank you.”

Grimm then walked away, and Scotto said, “So Congressman Michael Grimm does not want to talk about some of the allegations concerning his campaign finances. We wanted to get him on camera on that but he, as you saw, refused to talk about that. Back to you.”

With the camera still rolling, Scotto suddenly looks up, clearly startled.

“What?” Scotto asks.

And Grimm, again on-camera, though off-mike, can be heard speaking to Scotto in a low voice.

Grimm says, “Let me be clear to you, you ever do that to me again I’ll throw you off this f&^%%ing balcony.”

“Why?” Scotto says. “I just wanted to ask you…”

In muffled cross-talk, Grimm is heard again saying, “If you ever do that to me again…”

“Why? Why?” Scotto asks. “It’s a valid question.”

After more cross-talk, Grimm says, “No, no, you’re not man enough, you’re not man enough. I’ll break you in half. Like a boy.”

Grimm then walks away.

Why Boehner Doesnt Want To Be President Of the United States

http://youtu.be/VKY7bfwN_IA

House Speaker John Boehner, the most powerful Republican in the country, tells Jay Leno hat he has no interest in wanting to be the President of the United States. The reasons given is that he smokes cigarettes, drinks red wine and plays golf. Presidents Bush and Obama have proved that you don’t have to give up golf in order to be President. President Obama also spent at least the first year of his Presidency smoking cigarettes. And after President Obama’s well-touted “beer summit”, we are certain that Boehner wouldn’t have to give up his alcoholic beverages. Perhaps the House Speaker is deflecting anticipation that the Republican Party will ask him to run as a candidate for President of the USA.

Nancy Pelosi Discusses 49er Game

House Minority Speaker Nancy Pelosi is a huge 49ers fan. So much so that she says she’s wearing a bracelet with Joe Montana’s jersey #14. Interesting. He wore #16. She also likes the current 49er quarterback with his “big arms and tattoos”. We are not sure if she knows his name. She says the 49ers will be playing the Washingtonian.. uhh.. Red.. Seahawks. She talks about having a chocolate bet with the “members from Washington state” and looks forward to enjoying chicken chakalaka from North Carolina during the game. She informs us that whoever has the most numbers at the end of the game is the winner. She says sports is fun because “it knows that it is not political”. Then she says the game is sad because “our stadium down is being shut down” and talks about the new stadiums for the SF Giants and the 49ers.

Remembering What Chris Christie Told A California Citizen

In 2010, Republican Congressman Tom McClintock warned that Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Meg Whitman would simply be the “third term of Arnold Schwarzenegger”.

Numerous conservatives throughout California were questioning just how moderate or liberal Meg Whitman was. Her answers were constantly elusive on nearly every subject and many “tea party” Republicans had had enough with her non-answers.

Finally at a tightly controlled Whitman rally, which was attended by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, a conservative attendee was able to directly question Meg.

“What are you hiding?” shouted Ed Buck, in the front row of the 400-person event. “You’re looking like Arnold in a dress”.

Before Whitman could respond, Christie stepped down from the stage and got in Buck’s face.

“Hey, listen. You know what. You want to yell, yell at me,” Christie said, shutting down Buck as Christie’s bodyguards calmly but quickly approached the two men. “It’s people who raise their voices and yell and scream like you who are dividing this country. We’re here to bring this country together.”

The establishment Republicans in the audience cheered and applauded Christie’s ability to shut this concerned conservative up.
