Subject: Must-See Video: Democratic Congressman Arrogantly Insults Senior Citizen

Fellow Tea Partiers,

We ask that you spread the word about the video to which we link below, as it shows Democratic Congressman Bill Pascrell Jr. -- from New Jersey's 8th congressional district -- arrogantly insulting a senior citizen. Pascrell's behavior is an example of all too many politicians' utter contempt for the citizens whom they govern.

To see this video, please click on the following YouTube link:

At the Wayne forum, Pascrell touted how ObamaCare will -- supposedly -- extend the life of Medicare by 12 years. He also handed out literature claiming "The bill also strengthens Medicare to extend its life by 12 years."

One of Pascrell's constituents -- a senior citizen -- asked about the faulty assumptions behind this assertion.

FYI, for more about why the claim of a 12-year extension is so bogus that even Medicare's Chief Actuary refused to sign off on this claim, please refer to the following:

Pascrell's words and body language show that he is upset that one of his constituents has dared to question one of Pascrell's claims. The senior citizen asks Pascrell to comment about the Chief Actuary's remarks, to which Pascrell haughtily responds, "What's your question?" The senior citizen restates his question -- for example, saying, "I'm asking you, please comment on this" -- but when it becomes clear that Pascrell won't answer this most basic of questions, the senior rephrases his question.

This causes Pascrell to lose it: he arrogantly insults the senior citizen with the contemptuous cheap shot: "That's why I'm here, and you're there."

In other words: "That's why I, Lord Pascrell, am at the podium as your high-and-mighty congressman, and that's why you, ignorant peasant, are merely a part of the rabble making up the audience so fortunate to be in my presence today."

Pascrell's scornful body language has to be seen to be believed:

FYI, the senior citizen physically attacked by Pascrell's staffer at the 8/9/10 Forum on Senior Issues held in Montclair is not the same senior citizen insulted by Pascrell at the 8/9/10 Forum on Senior Issues held in Wayne.

By the way... a big thanks to Jim at Banner Visuals for his help in obtaining this video! (If any of you have some video work that you'd like done, and want to contact Jim, e-mail us at nnjteaparty@gmail.com and we'll forward your contact information to him. Jim also did excellent work for us at the 5/17/10 Congressional Candidates' Forum in Toms River.)
