Recently released photographs and video from the Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) protest outside the final presidential debate in Hempstead, NY on Oct. 15 clearly shows IVAW member Nick Morgan getting trampled on by Nassau County police on horseback, according to Emily Forman of I-Witness Video.
The images have emerged less than two weeks before the “Hempstead 15″ — the group of 10 Iraq War veterans and 5 civilians who were arrested at the debate– are due to show up for their first court date in Nassau County on Nov. 10.
Members of the “Hempstead 15″ are calling for supporters to show their support by packing the courthouse at 8 AM, located at 99 Main St. in Hempstead. They are facing charges of “disorderly conduct” and “failure to obey a lawful order.”
I-Witness Video is a group dedicated to using video to protect protestors’ civil liberties. In an email message to the Indypendent, Forman writes, “The video is extremely disturbing and clearly shows Iraq War Veteran Nick Morgan at the moment when his head was crushed to the sidewalk under a police horse. This story has been completely ignored in the media. He was legally, peacefully … standing on the sidewalk when the event occurred.”

Romney Gains In Florida
http://www.openleft.com/showDiary.
"Now that Obama seems to have made February 5th very, very interesting for Democrats, it would be only fair for Romney to do the same for Republicans. Fortunately, he seems to be obliging, as three Florida polls released today all show Romney gaining. Zogby now shows a 30%-30% tie, while yesterday McCain lead 31%-28%. Insider Advantage shows Romney ahead 26%-24%, whereas yesterday it was a 23% to 23% tie. Rasmussen shows Romney extending his lead to 33%--27%, whereas three days earlier Romney only led 27%-23%. In fact, the last four polls conducting Florida tracking show the state moving from McCain 25.5%--23.5% Romney, to Romney 29.3%--27.8% McCain."

Huckabee complains about AIR TIME after debate
Huckle said he only recieved 12 minutes of air time at last nights debate and Romney received 21 minutes. Well I know Paul was allowed 6 interupted minutes. That leaves another 15-20 minutes for McCain.
Unfair? For who? Same old tricks and petty squablles. The only person with a solution for the economy was virtual silenced. Now you have Hucky crying about mistreatment. Hey im being hard because look at Paul, Gravel, Kucinich. Ok Gravel didnt have much support but neither did Thompson.
I included the videos so you can judge whos being ignored.
well thats what you get apparently the supporters for Ghoulie, McPain, Dont make videos for them.
CNN-Huckabee quotes Ron Paul on the Economy..BITER!
Huckabee quotes Paul when asked about the tax stimulus" Were borrowing the money from the Chinese" Blah Blah
Another politician who's says what you want top hear. They ignored Dr Paul when he brought this up at the debate and now Huckabe get 15 minutes on CNN.
Hes goes on justifying the war by saying "When your in the game you have to make quick decisions, there not perfect all the time, your going to make mistakes".
Have you watched the New England Patriots?
When you have a great leader like Tom Brady he'll guide you Through tough times avoid the mistakes and use good judgement. If the coach started calling questionable plays you think and had fraudulent information on the defence. You think he would listen? Knowing it was on his shoulders.
Mentions changing the CONSTITUTION..........
Ill add the video later this was live at 11:30
As promised
