THUG LIFE: D.C. STYLE …
By FITSNEWS || For the record, we don’t care whether “Republicans” or Democrats prevail in the upcoming congressional elections. The two establishment parties in Washington, D.C. are different sides of the same big government coin … a.k.a. “heads they win, tails you lose.”
Ponder that … then ponder the trillions of dollars in debt hikes and spending increases GOP and Democratic politicians have jointly approved over the past decade-and-a-half.
News flash: It doesn’t matter which party is in control. The only thing that’s ever going to change is the escalating dollar amount associated with Washington’s chronic failure.
Anyway … we digress.
Assuming “Republicans” win control of the U.S. Senate, it would mean the end of current majority leader Harry Reid‘s reign over the world’s “greatest deliberative body.” Does that change the price of milk in South Carolina? No.
But there is this …

Attempting to question Reid in this clip is Jason Mattera – author of a book called Crapitalism that profiles liberals who have “made millions swiping your tax dollars.”
According to Mattera, Reid’s net worth of up to $6.7 million seems a tad exorbitant for a guy who has spent his career in “public service.” So Mattera decided to try and ask Reid the age old question: “Dude, What’s up with that?”
Reid wasn’t in a mood to respond, but his thug bodyguard was … shoving Mattera and pinning him against a wall.
Nice …
No doubt this was a “gotcha” interview, but Mattera wasn’t rude – or threatening. Which means this government hood was way out of bounds in responding the way he did. Citizens (reporters or otherwise) have a right to go into public buildings and ask elected officials direct questions like this. In fact they have a right to be obnoxious about it if they want.
Government goons, on the other hand, have no right to assault them …

I love Jason Materra!!!!
Of course, it’s not just Liberals making cash off thier position in dubious ways…but it’s a good video none the less.
… And the book might be somewhat interesting.
The most ethical and transparent administration evah!
LOL … What Ever … Dude!
Sorry, professor. What was the question? … ( I got lost in that sweater puppy link above.)
Imagine if Chaney had his goons do this to a NEW YORK TIMES reporter…I’m sure it would dominate the news cycle for weeks…
Harry used the black guy to do it-just like he uses blacks to be a billionaire.
Dirty Harry has been making big wads of cash on phony baloney desert land deals for a couple of decades. … For about as long as he has been in congress.
It’s the Banana Republic Response, of course!
Reid is above the law…he explained.
Harry Reid is a bully…but to be fair…he didn’t assault the reporter…he merely appears to be approving of the assault. ..
Nothing to see here…move along…just a Democrat behaving. …like a Democrat…
Kinda reminds me of when one of Rand Paul’s henchmen stomped on a lady at a campaign event a few years back.
Except that “henchman” was simply a Rand Paul supporter, the guy roughing up Jason Materra draws a salary funded by tax payers. How is this even similar?
Furthermore, the Paul camp profusely condemned the actions of any supporters that took that situation too far, there was clearly a crowd control issue. Has Reid apologized for his actual henchman’s actions?
I had the sound down on the video. Was the bodyguard “clean and articulate, with no Negro dialect”?
lol
+10 on that one
Writes a book complaining about liberals making a few million off the government, complains about Reid pointing to the Koch’s spending hundreds of millions to buy politicians and help them earn billions thanks to the government. There are no saints here, but I thought that was rather hilarious.
Normally I don’t like videos like this because they are unprofessional and lame. I do agree that the guard shouldn’t have gotten physical though.
This “Interview” with Lerner conducted by Materra a few weeks ago is hilarious!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u88vMSbX_xA
