Michele Bachmann Latest GOP Candidate to Suffer Glitter Attack - The Note

Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann today got a very warm reception from her home state at a conference of conservative bloggers in Minneapolis, but a few gay rights protesters still managed to make her the latest victim of the glitter attacks that have already been waged on fellow GOP presidential candidates Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty.

Why would this happen to Democrats? None of them are running for the GOP nomination and have stated they want a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman.

I thought the GOP was all about States rights? Guess that doesn't matter when it comes to discrimination.

on top of that, the victim in such a situation would have a right to claim self defense in response. given the fact that the victim does not know what is actually being dumped on them, a wide array of responses would be deemed approriate........might not be able to shoot the person, but you can really ruin their next few weeks.

such an attempt on me would go very far in stopping these kinds of tactics in the future.

+1. Any sort of unwanted contact is assault, pure and simple.

I love the conservatives getting themselves in a dander when even those involved, to my knowledge, haven't issued a word of protest at their treatment?

You're just totally clueless. Assault is a criminal charge. There is no such thing as throwing a criminal charge out of court on the grounds that it is "frivolous."

For someone who is lecturing others about never being in a courtroom, you sure are displaying an awful lot of your own ignorance.

You obviously have no clue regarding the distinction between a criminal versus a civil court.

BTW, your made up definition of assault simply is neither accurate nor complete.

But don't worry, Chico! We're all impressed with how big and bad you are from the safety of your home computer!

Wow. Talk about the pot and the kettle..!!

But don't worry, wolfie, if you ever want to back up the words you put forth from the safety of your home computer, you just let me know, and I'll get in touch next time I'm heading back east.

By the way, let the record show that the moonbats in here are doing nothing but arguing over the definition of "assault" and not a single one of them has come up with an answer that I asked for in my very first post starting this thread.

You can call me a coward online. You'd never dare to do so in person.

What's it like living that kind of "life," where you try to act like the man you'd like to be because you're behind a keyboard?

My offer stands. It's in your court.
