Can't stand the thought of someone else having an opinion different from your own? Burn a swastika:
Swastika Burned Into Grass On Bush-Cheney Supporter's LawnYou realize that if this had happened to a Kerry/Edwards supporter (and I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't), there would be people screaming repression from coast to coast.Homeowner: 'My Signs Are Going Right Back In The Yard'
MADISON, Wis. -- Madison homeowners are livid after vandals defaced their homes.
Someone burned an 8-foot-by-8-foot Nazi swastika on a home's lawn near where Bush-Cheney signs were posted. The vandals used grass killer to spray the symbol.
Several nearby homes were vandalized -- all were within a two-block radius on the West Side, near Ice Age Trail, News 3 reported.
State Republican Party officials claim it's the latest in a series of desperate acts by Democrats.
Homeowners are angry, but resolute in what they plan to do next.
"I just cannot believe that someone would take the liberty to do this," said homeowner Rob Schaeffer. "We're appalled that someone would choose to destroy our property because they don't believe in our political views. My signs are going right back in the yard. This is my property. We live here. We have rights."
Police are investigating the criminal damage and told the homeowner it will be investigated as a hate crime, which carries stiffer penalties.
and a comment like that is why you don't get my blood pressure up anymore, scroff. disappointed?

ROFL!
Right. I love that "the latest in a series". Serial Democrats!! These unnamed vandals just HAVE TO BE democrats, no wait, DESPERATE Democrats!! Democrats Gone Wild!!! Live on Fox News at 6!!
Sure. I think it was a gang of Karl Rove wannabees.
The Republicans have already said they were going to blame any vandalism on the Democrats during the RNC, so I guess they're just following suit.

scroff, why do the folks on your side (I really don't like the "my side-your side" terms, but...) of the spectrum assume that anything bad that could happen against the GOP is the evil work of rove and his little minions? CBS faked memos? rove. swastikas on a bush/cheney supporters lawn? rove. Washington State bush/cheney campaign HQ burglarized? rove. it's unbelievable that y'all think your side is above dirty tricks. that's pretty disingenuous, no? gotta say, though-- I agree and disagree with your comments, but they always make me smile. :-)

I guess I wonder why every time something happens in a negative fashion to the Republicans, they immediately claim the Dems did it.
No one believes either side is above bad behavior, but to always blame the Dems is ludicrous
Hey nat!
Rove has a history of being a "dirty trickster", rumor has it he even bugged his own office and blamed the Dems during the race for gov.
I just like to say it... we used to blame Bush for everything, now we know it's Rove...
Mt. St. Helens? Rove!

hi ruthie! I wouldn't blame dems or repubs for for the nasty crap that happens, necessarily. I'm more likely to blame "assholes" in general, and there are LOTS of them in this world, on all "sides", eh? :-) hope all is well with you guys.
