Of course his cretinous truther brethren are calling this a conspiracy. The only conspiracy here is them rallying to the defense of a depraved monster with lies and threats. From The N.Y. Post:

A man heckling First Lady Laura Bush and daughter Jenna outside the 92nd Street Y was arrested after he punched a wheelchair-bound girl whose parents has told him to shut up, authorities said yesterday. German Talis, 22, was shouting obscenities at the Bushes, who were leaving the building Tuesday, when he crossed paths with Wendy and John Lovetro and their daughter Maureen, 18, who has cerebral palsy.

They had been in the audience to hear the Bushes talk about their children’s book, “Read All About It.”

“He began yelling about Iraq and Iran at Jenna Bush. She was waving at the crowd. I told the guy, ‘What are you doing? Shut up. This is about a child and books,’ ” said John Lovetro. “He was unperturbed. I said, ‘Get out of here! You’re being a moron!’ ”

The next thing he knew, Talis was allegedly punching Maureen – a fan of the first lady since meeting her in 2004.

“I heard my daughter hysterical yelling, ‘He’s hitting me!’ ” said Wendy Lovetro.

“He punched her on the shoulder blades, but that wasn’t enough,” she said.

“My husband pushed the wheelchair away from him and he reached beyond my husband and began pounding my daughter in the thigh.”

The two men fought as the president’s family drove off. Cops broke them up and busted Talis on charges of assault and resisting arrest.

Maureen was not seriously injured.

German Talis is a member of 9/11 “Truth” group We Are Change, who are claiming that German(A.K.A. Gary) was the victim of an elaborate set up by the father of the girl. To prove their point they posted a video of “Gary” being unreasonable and acting high/crazy/retarded before the incident by hassling Secret Service agents just trying to do their job and go home.

Watch the video (Courtesy Michelle Malkin) and tell me if the story Gary’s friend is telling syncs up with the quick couple of seconds where Gary freaks out in a crowd:

One problem with the woman’s story is that the video shows the brawl breaking out while the crowd is still gathered, while her story is that the crowd dispersed and the father of Maureen basically pushed her into poor innocent Gary.

Watch it again. How do you explain the incongruity? The woman in the video either didn’t actually see the fight and is presenting herself as a witness anyway or she did see the fight and is lying to cover for her friend.

4/23 Truth Now!

Added bonus, toward the end of the video some truther getting arrested states he “isn’t trying to be condescending or derogatory” to a cop after lecturing the poor bastard with a speech so sanctimonious Jimmy Swaggart would cringe if he heard it. He’s got to be kidding. Are truthers so out of touch that they don’t understand how to talk to people without being condescending or derogatory?

Short answer, Yes they are.

Scroll through the We Are Change site and you’ll see that the “activists” in the group tend to take a lot of beatings. Hmmm. It’s almost like they provoke people by doing outrageous things. Things like hitting disabled children maybe?

On the heels of the “peace” protester assault on a family this seems an ominous development in America’s already heated political discourse. What’s next for the radical left, a coup attempt?
