Last Minute Protests (VIDEO)

From Politico today:

Tea Party protesters disrupted Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s press stakeout at a House Office Building, yelling “you’re a disgrace to your office” and one protester yelled a gay epithet at Rep. Barney Frank again on Sunday, adding yet another layer of chaos to an already tense afternoon on Capitol Hill.

In a moment of apparently unscripted political theater, Pelosi and Democratic leaders marched arm in arm — with civil rights pioneer John Lewis — across the Capitol complex while protesters yelled at them and police held a barricade.


The Pelosi disruption came inside the Cannon office building, where Democrats where whipping the final votes for the historic health care overhaul. When Pelosi said “We’re doing this for the American people,” a protestor yelled “you’re doing this TO the American people!”

Oh, and somebody allegedly yelled “faggot” at Barney Frank. Big deal. There are much worse things happening in our country now, like the government takeover of 1/6th of our economy.
