Jon Runyan, THIS is your party

Since you're new to politics, Jon Runyan, here's some information you should be aware of.

THIS is YOUR party. THESE are the people YOUR party leaders such as Sarah Palin support and encourage.

Demonstrators outside the U.S. Capitol , angry over the proposed health care bill, shouted "nigger" Saturday at U.S. Rep. John Lewis , a Georgia congressman and civil rights icon who was nearly beaten to death during an Alabama march in the 1960s.

The protesters also shouted obscenities at other members of the Congressional Black Caucus , lawmakers said.

Nice. Racial slurs. But wait, there's more!

Protestors also used a slur as they confronted Rep. Barney Frank , D- Mass. , an openly gay member of Congress . A writer for Huffington Post said the crowd called Frank a "faggot."

Frank told the Boston Globe that the incident happened as he was walking from the Longworth office building to the Rayburn office building, both a short distance from the Capitol. Frank said the crowd consisted of a couple of hundred of people and that they referred to him as 'homo.'

I can't emphasize it enough: THIS is the party you've chosen to align yourself with.

Are you really sure THIS is the new team you want to join? Do you really want to be part of THIS?
