Nice collection of news articles. Good work guys. Keep it up.

People who do stuff like this are idiots. It's not a political issue, but a decency issue.

Is the Left that desperate that is uses terrorist tactics to scare the Right?

WOW

Fritz's Thoughts

Tom is right in #2, but it points up an interesting hypocrisy of the left, in that liberals only recognize individual action for what it is when violence is perpetrated from the left. When the targets are on the left, invariably the perpetrators are "conservatives," regardless of their individual quirks. That's why whole areas of academic study are devoted to "anti-choice violence" and its connection to "fundamentalist dualism," but nothing serious has been written on the violence of anti-war activists breaking into defense department installations and damaging persons and property. This, despite the fact that leftist attckers show far less indication of ourrght mental illness than people like Paul Hill.

I like what that Fritz has to say... maybe I shall visit his Web site.

I don't really know about all those academic studies and what not. Maybe there is a hypocrisy there.

But, breaking an entry and stealing political foes property has happened on both sides of the fence, and i don't think either side thinks the other are mentally ill in these occassions.

In order for you to even suggest there is a connection between the Democratic party and a "cycle of violence" directed towards conservatives, you'll need some sort of evidence besides posting random acts of violence and vandalism. Otherwise I can just as easily post a list of attacks against Democratic campaign headquarters, abortion clinics, businesses owned by Muslims, etc. that could just as easily (and recklessly) be blamed on hateful rhetoric from the far right.

Your post is worse than worthless - it is dangerous and libelous (in a broad sense). I could get angry, but instead this is more of an indicator to me of desperation. Once your pit bull shows his true colors tonight, I'm predicting the desperation will get worse. Tomorrow, perhaps you can suggest that Kerry has his own secret network of fight clubs, or perhaps he is hiding Osama Bin Laden...

Let me reinforce that - I'm not accusing anyone here of legal libel, which is a serious charge indeed.

these are hardly random.. these are deliberate hate crimes.

I've got heard from a very reliable source that the republicans are behind this. Now, you tell me what is worse...

http://www.carllewis.com/video.music.1.html

these are hardly random.. these are deliberate hate crimes.

You have absolutely no proof of that, Aaron. Your charge is baseless, delusional, and pathetic.

come on, don't be stupid. that gets old.

Democrats are violent people, ecspecially when someone offers a different opinion of their own.

Most people behind bars are Democrats. Most violent criminals are Democrats. 98.3% of all rapes are commited by democrats against republican females...and 73% of all armed robberies are commited by Democrats against Republican business owners.

I can't find the link right now.

Jeffery Dahmer was a Democrat.

Hannibal, in the movies like "Hannibal" there are indications that this crazed lunatic leans left.

This is what politically-motivated violence looks like.

John -

Thanks for the biggest laugh of the day.

Don't forget - John Wayne Gacy was a democrat as well. I think Manson leaned left, too. But you guys have Vincent Gallo and Britney Spears. I think I'd rather be aligned with Manson, Dahmer and Gacy.

and we have alice cooper

BTW: They're closing in on the green-shirted thug. They have identified him and the woman is preparing to press charges.

Toby Keith is a registered democrat. I'm not proud of that one.

Jack, you do know I was joking...right?

"I'm a registered Democrat, and most people are too ignorant to know that."

Of course I know you were joking, although sometimes with you guys I'm not sure...

Come on, Jack, you know even if there was even viable "proof," it either wouldn't be enough proof for you and others of like mind, or we'd get back to what the "meaning of 'violence' is and such.

I'm growing weary and outright impatient about these "Well, there's just as much political shenanigans on the part of Republicans as there are on the part of the Democrats."

What a bunch of (pardon my French) bunk!

Like I said, the GOP could have a mountain of evidence showing Democrats and liberals (pretty much one and the same these days) the perpetrators of violent acts committed against pro-Bush workers, compared to your thimble-full of the same acts committed on the part of Republicans against Democrats, and you'd still say, "See, I told you so. You people are hypocrites, bigots and hate-mongers!"

I've seen plenty of Republican shananagins in the news, I just don't save each clip, then present them as the "true nature of republicans" because I don't think that. Conservatives and liberals both have their share of nutjobs and criminals in their ranks. To say one camp is more inclinded to violence than the other is baseless and irresponsible.

Sorry, Rick - we don't need any more ranting posters who are interested in nothing more than bitching about how angry they are at the "liberuhls". We need a poster who can explain how a bunch of petty crimes (the swastika incident aside, which is a hate crime), occurring at different times and places, are somehow connected to a grand liberal conspiracy. I would go back to the freepers - they have a lock on sputtering anger.

Only a liberal could possibly commit a burgulary ! Only a liberal would shoot out a window (Where is gun control when we need it to keep guns out of the hands of angry liberals ?) Oh the humanity !! These incidents round out the Trifecta of crime that started when some Kerry lover broke Aarons Bush/Cheney flag off his car.

I remembers back in the olden days when the anti-vietnam war people blew up the science building at UW Madison and killed a grad student.

The Republicans also have Bo Derek. She's still a 10.

Well most of them anti war hippies from back in the 60's/Early 70's discovered Capitalism and are now on your side of the Political fence. ( One of my favorite writers of all time is PJ O'Rourke, a self confessed "Reformed Hippie" )

They can discover Capitalism and still be on your side of the fence. Look at Bill and Hillary.

LOL. You got me there.

Well....as for the "randomness" of these crimes....yesterdays assault on 20 offices of the Bush/Cheney campaign were COORDINATED by the AFL-CIO.

Don't wanna believe it?

HERE IT IS don't forget to watch the video.

Local 6 News learned that most of the protestors were from the AFL-CIO and were taking part in one of 20 other coordinated protests around the country.

Random MY ASS!!!!

Dearest Jack Spratt,

I have to admit that there are "problem-children" on both sides of the debate--that is, in both the Democrat and Republican parties--but you're tired and lame arguments about nut-jobs existing on either side (and, I'm assuming to the same degree) is really getting very, very, very old.

Bottom line (and it can be reduced to the simplest of terms--even for you to understand): your side favors entitlements; our side favors EMPOWERMENT...

Your side believes that everybody has their own "truth;" our side (for the most part) adheres to solid morals, ethics, and absolutes...

Your side believes "whatever it takes, as long as we win;" our side tries to play fair, until your ilk drags us into the mud.

Come on, Jackie, wake up, dude! Republicans are quicker to call one of their own "on the carpet" much quicker than any Democrat would do to their own. (Yes, if I did enough space here, I would, INDEED, elaborate!)

The door is NOT swinging both ways. Where do we see criminal attacks across america against DNC offices organized by the NRA? We don't.

If this is how they are acting now, what's going to happen on November 3rd after Bush/Cheney have been reelected???

I agree with doc Russia: Tom, show me the clips of organized violence against the Democratic camp by a Republican-leaning group. You can't because it ain't there.

http://www.geocities.com/arthursank/sexualmorality.html

Look! Republicans are desperate.... For little children.

Here's another one. http://www.vaildaily.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20040929/NEWS/109290014/0/FRONTPAGE&rs=2

I've been cut off Twice in traffic by people with Bush-Cheney bumber stickers on their cars. Coincidence ? I think not !

Yeah TRF...you should see how the John-John stickered drivers drive around Boston.....as if Boston's not bad enough.

I just steer clear and expect to be cut off.

However....Tom says:

"But, breaking an entry and stealing political foes property has happened on both sides of the fence..."

Where's the proof (GOT LINK?) that Republican supporters have broken into, shot at, vandalized the campaign headquartes of the John-John campaign?

added to that, a rash of occurances all within a week or two of eachother?

I think the perpetrators are footsoldiers of Terry McAuliffe..

Sarge, no one has provided proof that was anything more than a burgulary. Note: The Bush campaign and local Republican officials say they’re convinced the break-in was politically motivated. They say it appeared to be a targeted burglary and was suspiciously similar to a break-in four years ago at Bush’s Bellevue offices."

That's not a statement from the police, or someone in law enformcement. It's an ASSUMPTION, an OPINION. Like you are ASSUMING that all of these acts are perpetrated by Democrats & Liberals.

Never mind that we've already seen Republicans STAGING acts of violence, etc.. (That Parlock asshole with the crying girl on his shoulders) to create animosity towards Democrats.

So, Sarge, the man of proof, I say, there hasn't been any provided yet.

That’s not a statement from the police, or someone in law enformcement

To elaborate, it's a statement from The Bush campaign and local Republican officials.

As far as the dumbasses that stormed the Republican headquarters, they've obviously got their heads up their assees and aren't doing anything to help the Democrats with stupidity like that. It's interesting that the "liberally biased" media tries to tie those incidents through inference to the swastika /chansaw incident, when in fact there is no evidence that those were in any way tied to the Democrats.

The Yahoos taking shots, and burning swastikas are obviously dangerous and sick people, but based on the evidence (Read: there is none) for all we know they were Nader supporters, or just plain assholes.

So Democrats are organized to attack republican opponents while Republicans are organized to rape and molest small children. I still say vote democrat.

I've never claimed "Democrat or liberal" involvement. I HAVE claimed AFL-CIO involvement because it was an entire AFL-CIO rally that forcibly entered the office during daytime and valdalized the place.

Of course, I did ASSUME that someone breaking into or shooting at a Bush office is certainly not a Bush supporter.

Of course, they could be breaking into their own offices to make it LOOK like Kerry supporters are violent.

However, Tom has said that these violent acts against campaign offices go both ways...and I wanna see proof.

...and Dum Yeah is still saying the stupidest things because she doesn't have anything real to say.

Republicans are a danger to small children I dont like to smear an entire party but pederasty seems to be a trait amongst republicans.

No wonder why they are against abortion, more children for them to rape.

Sarge, Frankly I am at a loss to understand the motivations of the AFL-CIO protesters, they haven't done any favors to themselves or their cause by acting in that way. So I am as appalled as you are at that behavior. It'll probably come as a shock to you that I am a lefty that is anti-union, but I seriously think unions suck.

Dum Yeah, you got some sort of lame-assed proof to your assertion? Or do you just live to spew bullshit on-line.

Don't I hear someone ringing the bell on the counter....they want a pickle with their sammich.

I don't expect all left-leaning people to be pro-union...but I do expect unions to be pro-Democrat....and give money to democrats...and stump the campaigns for democrats....no matter what the individual members believe.

Man....I hated paying dues to the HUCTW (AFL-CIO affiliate of Harvard). Buncha friggin' charlatans.

I posted a link, the link has a list with post to other links. Also try google for the name of the mayor of waterbury conneticut (Republican) who is in jail for molesting to young girls I believe ages 9 and 11.

I see...a Republican mayor was convicted of child molestation....thus Republicans are organized to rape and molest little girls/boys?

...and a list of "Republican" -VOTING molestors, rapists, and thieves?

Shall we get together a list of the Democrat-voting molestors, rapists, and thieves? Do take into account that the vast majority of criminals are minorities...and they are by a HUGE majority Democrat-voting.

That's quite a logical accusation you got going there.

Re 41

Never mind that we’ve already seen Republicans STAGING acts of violence, etc.. (That Parlock asshole with the crying girl on his shoulders) to create animosity towards Democrats.

Not staging, the Democrats were set up. The fact thay they went there did not make it ok for them to rip the sign out her hands and tear it up. That's like saying if I go drive a car late on saturday night and get hit by a drunk driver--well then, shit, I set up myself up for that right??? YOU MUST ACQUIT???

your rationale is pathetic.

Re 27: Some of them did, but the loudest became tenured radicals and brainwashed a whole generation of people who are too uninformed to vote but plan to, anyway.

Find me a list of Democratic activists or elected officials who have been convicted of pedophilia.

If you can more then three we can call it a wash.

Re # 52 , In that instance it was widely agreed that Parlock's own son, posing as a Union/Kerry supporter ripped the sign to create their little anti-Dem photo op. So I guess being an asshole runs in the family. Nice try though, Aaron.

Um Yeah, I'm a liberal and I'm just not buying the implication that there are more Republican child molesters than there are Democrat child molesters. I think their political beliefs don't have anything to do that kind of sick behavior. It's a pretty far fetched and irrelevant argument.

Well I did do a pretty thorough search.

TRF...I maintain my opinion that it's not clear as to if that was parlock's son in the union shirt. It's not a dead-ringer for identity match...mostly because he's just an aveage looking 20+ male and it was comparing a side shot with a front shot.

Dum Yeah's gone off the deep end with his molestation/rape charge......way off the deep end.

Um-yeah - the article you linked to regarding pedophilic acts attributed to republicans is certainly alarming. However, I propose that when such a thing is discovered involving anyone on the right, the others on the right are happy to expose and punish such an action. When people on the left get involved, instead of doing the morally correct thing and prosecuting the offender, they tend to just let it slide and cover it up (in the name of protecting "the movement").

These acts of force that spawned the original topic, can easily be attributed to democrat/liberal voters. Just go look at the forums on the D.U. they promote and condone such acts, (and more). On the other end of the spectrum, you have right wing forums that have the occasional smacktardtard espousing violence is the way to go, getting his ass handed to him by the other conservative/libertarian posters. The agreed determination on the appropriate time/reason for violence, in these right leaning forums, is usually agreed upon as being the time that RIGHTS are violated.

KKKonservitives are wimps thats why they prey on children! we are REEL MEN! We kick you asses both in the polls and on the streets!

id like to see any country club polo wearing repuke take on a union tough. thats why we ALWAYS win!

That wasnt me but yeah close enough.

BTW if I find a car with a Bush Cheney bumpersticker and a kid in it im calling the cops just to be safe.

Lol, Um Yeah, you are either the bigest twit I've ever seen or you are just trying to be funny. If it is the latter, it is sick humor. In either case, you need professional help to deal with some issues that are probably really hard to spell.

Dum Yeah, I'd love to try out 8 years of hand-hand combat training on your head....see, what you don't understand is that, while you're trying to kick my ass...I'll be busy trying to incapacitate or kill you.

to add some on-topic comments...check out the "individual actions" in Minnesota....it will only get better.

I'd love to drive 4 hours to kick your corned-beef smellin' ass all over the barrio....any time you want.

Why are you angry? Are you mad at me for exposing the sickness andmoral depravity of the Republican party. Or did you get a sandwich with some homemade man mayonaise on it?

Sarge how does it feal to know youre never getting your dreem here!

That wasnt me. Notice the bad spelling.

Im both Um Yeah's.

Um yeah,

Could you get a password for your account?

Or control your other personality?

This isnt my site, its not up to me to police it. If Aaron chooses to let this rampant asshatery go on so be it.

FYI, because of my distaste of impersonators on either side, I've deleted any comments I have seen that were posted by the individual impersonating you. I have banned the two IPs that person posted from to curb their efforts.

Bare in mind, I do have a life, and I can't police every post all the time. If you find any comment to be offensive or is suspect of impersonation, please e-mail me.

Thanks, and I am sincere in this.

Good form Aaron.

Republican Thievery

My hat's off to Aaron. I disagree with him on just about every political issue, as I do with every wingnut here, and sometimes the insults get personal, but he stepped up and did the right thing in moderating his site.

At least our candidates aren't "getting desperate".

Jack, this whole post is a testament to the desperation of YOUR candidates.

LOL. I don't think Kerry and Edwards are moonlighting as petty vandals, although I'm sure you wouldn't put it beneath them.

Well jack, your first link lands on an Error File not Found...and the 2nd one has absolutely nothing to do with this thread....good going...2 for 2.

...and I would like to simply correct what Aaron said by saying that this whole post is a testament to the desparation of those that support YOUR candidates.

If you care to bring some evidence of the same thing happening against Kerry campaign headquarters...then bring it....and I will denounce it as Tom does.

...but I've not seen it thus far.
