Obama supporters disrupted a Romney rally today in Ohio – trying desperately to drown out Governor Tim Pawlenty while he spoke to the conservative crowd. The Obama supporters were eventually escorted from the rally.

Cleveland.com reported on the leftist assault.

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney sent two GOP heavyweights to northern Ohio Thursday to beat President Barack Obama’s similar bus tour to the punch.

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, traveling on Romney’s campaign bus, stopped at Parma’s Kentown Plaza to emphasize what they say is a gap between what Obama has promised and what he has delivered.

But a physical clash between Romney supporters and protesters overshadowed the Parma campaign stop by the prominent pair, who are often mentioned as possible running mates for Romney.

The quarrel broke out as soon as Pawlenty took the stage before about 200 people at the strip shopping center.

“Pawlenty go home, Pawlenty go home,” the protesters chanted over the former governor’s speech.

Pawlenty maintained composure, and even put his own twist on the chant.

“We should send Barack Obama home,” he declared.

At one point, Romney supporter Richard Brysac of Parma confronted protester Al Neal of Canton, who attended with members of a group called Fight for Fair Economy Ohio.

Brysac, 77, attempted to hush Neal by emptying a bottle of water into the 25-year-old union worker’s mouth.

“He seemed thirsty, so I tried to shove the bottle in his mouth,” Brysac said. “I thought it was wrong to interfere with [Pawlenty's] freedom of speech.

“I acted out of character and I apologize if I offended anyone.”

When the bottle didn’t work, Brysac pulled out his handkerchief and gagged Neal.

Neal removed the handkerchief and continued chanting until the group of protesters was escorted from the rally.

  1. “Pawlenty go home, Pawlenty go home,”

    They do have the most creative writers,that’s for sure..

    Are all Liberal ..um….men New Castrati girly boys,
    or is it just the ones that are living ?

  2. Show me a committed union thug who gladly disrupts people he disagrees with, and I’ll show you a guy who, if incarcerated, would gladly participate in homosexual rape.

    Of course that goes for liberals and progressives in general, so it’s not like it’s a revelation.

  3. LOL So those poor Romney people just had no choice but to physically assault the people. Is this a joke article? Control yourselves, violent Republicans.

  4. Are we sure that Brysac, the guy who tried to shut the goon up, wasn’t part and parcel of this street theater performance from the Legions of the None?

  5. “Provoke”?

    Is this the same type of shout down tactics the Tea Party people have used at Town Halls? Exposed as the kind of bullies they really are. He’s lucky that water bottle didn’t get shoved back up somewhere. I applaud the restraint of the guy assaulted by the old timer.

    (keep using up that Medicare and SOCIAL security you hypocrites)

  6. Al Neal, 35, of Canton…This guy gets around. Paid protester.
    When does he find time for his Union job?
    He’s also 10yrs older in this story..lol.

  7. Jilleppi,

    notice. Conservative America

    Will use your tactics against

    You. You army of hate filled

    Unions and libtards caused

    the rise of the TEA party.

    Nothing happens in a vaccum.

    Cause and effect.

    Wait for November, it will

    Be historic landslide.

  8. While these Leftists cry foul at Republicans, these same Leftists have absolutely NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER hurling large rocks and bricks off of bridges onto the windshields of busses full of Republicans traveling to attend their National Convention. Nor do they have a problem with throwing bags of urine and feces at virtually anybody they disagree with.

    Hoorah to the guy who finally decided he’d had enough of their sh*t!

  9. OT

    Just when you think you know everything about Alec Baldwin — everyone’s favorite Emmy-winning, self-mocking, paparazzi-shoving, celebvocating A-list newlywed of the moment — suddenly you get walloped by a new revelation: Did you know that he and Hilary Rosen dated in college???

    They did!!! We learn this via a passing reference in Vanity Fair’s new cover story: How he and the veteran Democratic operative/pundit lived across the hall from each other at George Washington University’s Thurston Hall, and, oh yeah, dated. “He was passionate about politics,” Rosen, the former chief of the Recording Industry Association of America, told the magazine. “He was funny — and I won’t say he was lighthearted, because he was always ambitious; he always wanted to have an impact and be in the thick of things.”

    Wow, who knew? “He is better off with [new bride] Hilaria,” she told us in an e-mail. “Very happy for him!”

    Read earlier: Alec Baldwin definitely not considering a run for Congress right now, no matter what you’ve heard, 11/18/12

    Also in The Reliable Source:

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/reliable-source/post/in-other-news—-who-knew-alec-baldwin-and-hilary-rosen-dated-in-college/2012/07/02/gJQAATwNJW_blog.html

    Two disgusting people deserve each other, then Rosen turned GAY.

  10. Mark Levin wrote a very lengthy article about Axelrod.

    He and a few others, ARE THE COONS.

    This article also shows similarities that will blow your mind, that of Obama and Axelrod.

    Axelrod is the mastermind of Obama’s WHOLE CAMPAIGN.

  11. Dukakis, Kerry … Romney?

    [...]The economy is of course important. But voters want to hear what Romney is going to do about the economy. He can “speak about” how bad the economy is all he wants—though Americans are already well aware of the economy’s problems—but doesn’t the content of what Romney has to say matter? What is his economic growth agenda? His deficit reform agenda? His health care reform agenda? His tax reform agenda? His replacement for Dodd-Frank? No need for any of that, I suppose the Romney campaign believes. Just need to keep on “speaking about the economy.”

    The Romney campaign will answer that they’re imitating Bill Clinton in 1992, who famously focused on “the economy, stupid.” But Bill Clinton was a full spectrum presidential candidate, with detailed policy proposals on welfare reform, health care, education, and foreign policy. He also made real efforts to convince the voters he was different from the losing Democratic candidates who preceded him (“a new kind of Democrat,” “ending welfare as we know it,” a hawkish-sounding foreign policy, Sister Souljah, etc.). So far, the Romney campaign doesn’t resemble the Clinton campaign. It seems to be following more comfortably in the tradition of the five post-Cold War Republican presidential candidates who preceded Romney. They received 37.5 percent, 40.7 percent, 47.9 percent, 50.7 percent, and 45.7 percent of the vote, respectively. The average GOP presidential vote in these last five elections was 44.5 percent. In the last three, it was 48.1 percent. Give Romney an extra point for voter disillusionment with Obama, and a half-point for being better financed than his predecessors. It still strikes me as a path to (narrow) defeat.[…}

  12. You keep showing up at events where you’re not wanted – and you keep running your mouths, Leftists – it’ll be more than water bottles getting shoved down your throats.

  13. Obama’s Problem Obeying the Law

    http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/07/obamas_problem_obeying_the_law.html

    Stands to reason his goons do too.

  14. 77 year old conservative (experienced a massive depression and a World War) vs 25 year old diaper-wetting pablum puking union lib. Doesn ‘t seem like a fair fight! :)

  15. This is going to be the norm this election. SEIU union thugs are picketing Romney events and been leaving false pamphlets on cars without any political disclaimer. Wait until we get close to November and Romney signs will disappear from yards as quickly as they go up. The unions and liberals are going to play dirty.
