Description"Regretful Massachusetts Democrat Michael E. Capuano
aka “Bloody Mike” Capuano

Guess who “regrets” urging union people that they need to go out and get ” a little bloody“? [Link] That’s right, Democrat Massachusetts Congressman Michael “Bloody Mike” Capuano. When he whipped a Boston crowd of about 1,000 union folks into a frothing frenzy, he apparently did not really mean that they should go out and crack the heads of hardworking Americans.

As reported in the Boston Globe, he said he meant this: [Link]

“I strongly believe in standing up for worker rights and my passion for preserving those rights may have gotten the best of me yesterday in an unscripted speech,” the Somerville Democrat said in a statement. “I wish I had used different language to express my passion and I regret my choice of words.”

According the Boston Globe, after the Arizona shootings he said this :

“Many of us were afraid for a long time that something like this would happen, with the level or the tone of the discourse over the last several years,” Capuano told WGBH on Jan. 22. “It’s gotten violent and personal.”

He is a typical liberal – “Do as I say, Not as I do.” Interesting that he may consider a run against Scott Brown. He probably does have the thug vote wrapped up, though."
