"MoveOn Supporter Brutally Attacked by Rand Paul Supporter" -- The Atlantic "Ugly Scene In Kentucky" -- Politico "Paul Stops Short Of Condemning Attack On MoveOn Protester" -- TPM Outside a Senate debate last night, a progressive activist named Lauren was thrown to the ground by Tea Party thugs holding "Rand Paul" signs. As one held her down, another stomped her head -- producing an audible crunching sound. Rand Paul's Senate campaign put out a statement condemning violence on "both sides." What?? That's NOT ok -- we need accountability, not false equivalency. _WATCH THE VIDEO and sign our statement calling on Republican politicians like Rand Paul to unequivocally denounce Tea Party violence.
