Nutter punches 65 year old healthcare reform supporter.

If this doesn’t tell you what ignorant bags of batshit are on the anti-healthcare reform bandwagon…I don’t know what the hell will. From the RawStory link:

A 65-year-old man cheering healthcare reform in Miami was punched in the face and knocked to the ground by an opponent of a public health plan, according to a reporter at the scene. The rally took place outside a Great Miami Chamber of Commerce event where Florida Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL – below right) was speaking.

“Luis Perrero of Coral Gables was standing among about 40 Democratic activists and union workers when a man in a Ford pick-up truck pulled up to the rally at Jungle Island and began arguing with the crowd,” the Herald’s Tolouse Oloronippa blogged Wednesday. “The man, who only gave his first name as Raul, said Perrero called him a Spanish curse word. He punched Perrero in the face. Perrero fell to the ground and lay motionless for a few minutes.”

Sweet-friggin-Jaysus-in-a-speedo..wtf? Punching out an old man for crying out loud? Way to go, you worthless asshole!

The extreme rightwing nutters are coming out of the woodwork over the healthcare debate. We can blame Chuck the fuck Grassley and just about every other Rethug or Blue Dog for this violent bullshit.

They are feeding it, and the ‘rightwing terrorists’ are doing their part evidently. The 65 yo victim had this to say:

“I’m amazed the way this has become such a politicized issue,” Perrero said, while still sitting on the ground but sitting up. “It shows that people who are against the public option will resort to anything, including battery on a senior citizen to prevent healthcare reform.”

Sadly, I am not amazed. I expect it to get much worse. The Big O however will speak to the idiots in Congress Sept 9th. Can’t wait for this newest bullshit session. What do you want to bet he drops the Public Option? Any takers on that bet?

WAIT!!! There is more. C&L has the video below up of a handicapped woman getting shouted down by the fucktards:

Can there be any room for a centrist at a health care reform town hall meeting
