Protesters Storm Bush / Cheney Milwaukee Headquarters
More than 50 demonstrators supporting Democrat presidential candidate John Kerry stormed a Republican campaign office in West Allis on October 5, trespassing, creating a disturbance through the use of a bullhorn in the office and then refusing to leave when asked.
The Chairman of the Republican Party of Wisconsin condemned the action by Kerry supporters, and asked the Kerry campaign and the Democrat Party of Wisconsin to do the same.
“Do John Kerry and Wisconsin Democrats really believe this is conduct becoming of a presidential candidate and his campaign?” RPW Chairman Rick Graber asked. “It is unfortunate that Team Kerry feels the need to engage in such childish and obnoxious behavior.
“The President and his campaign will continue to talk about the issues in Wisconsin,” Graber added. “Let’s hope that someday soon, the Kerry campaign and Wisconsin Democrats will join us and put an end to this foolishness.”
Sadly this is becoming more and more common.

Bush-Cheney Headquarters Ransacked
This kind of crap will end quickly if the Kerry Campaign leaders and Union leaders are jailed for the participation of their people. A couple of perp-walks, and this tactic of Kerry/Edwards/AFL-CIO will be abandonded.
Time to end the use of labor union thugs and hoods its time for the corupt labor unions like the AFL/CIO the TEAMSTERS,UAW and the rest of them to face RICO charges there is no call for these crinimals they should be halled into jail and before a judge who should fine each of them $5000
I think tactics like this have been used before in elections. Let me see, I think it was in the 1930s in places with names like Munich, Berlin, etc. I believe they were called brown shirts (a euphemism for liberals in that era).
And the left has the nerve to say Bush acts like Hitler and the Nazis.
Preston does a great job of summarizing this violence.
somewhere, buried in the links of whoever Preston is,. was this from the Montana vandalism…
“Sen. Gary Perry, R-Manhattan,(Montana) took a more conciliatory tone. He recalled that both the Democratic and Republican headquarters have been ransacked in previous election years, although nothing approached the damage this time around.
It’s not the mainstream people from either party who are doing this, he said.
“It’s an event of hate and evil that is permeating too much of our society when we’re working for civility in the world,” he said. “What we’re about here is peaceful discourse.”
Local Democrats condemned the crime. County party co-chair Tracy Velazquez called it vandalism and said it should be treated as such.
“We are all Americans and this is inexcusable behavior,” she said.
The Democrats had their headquarters’ sign torn down and stolen a few weeks ago, but it was eventually recovered.
Preston headlines his page with something like, ‘are all Democrats criminals or just most of them?’
another bipartisan source.

Never said he was bipartisan. He’s definitely on the Right side.
I’m thinking about storming the Green party headquarters.
sorry K – i keep thinking about and looking for some balance. i really do forget where i am sometimes.
(i’m not being sarcastic, the right and the left do the same schtick)
i’m a libra. always have liked intellectual balance, if not balance in my personal views.
happy birthday, then.
I’m going to be sick.
I have to share a birthday with shiloh? Good GOD!
mine’s 10/4. maybe this is just the warm fuzzy we need to heal, pcd. when’s yours buddy?
“you say it’s your birthday.

-Lennon/McCartney
is today your bday, PCD? i just assumed shiloh’s is sometime this month.
is that why you were gone on monday shiloh? i worked on MY birthday
Tomorrow. I asked W to verbally eviscerate Kerry as a birthday present.
re #14 – best have another birthday wish in reserve when that one doesn’t work out.
the networks are trying to sell ad time to insert in W’s pauses, as he’s trying to desperately remember his script.
#13 – i work 4 10hr shifts tue-fri. hey, i missed you, too.
it was noticeably quiet, is all.
Real peaceful bunch.
This is just getting pathetic. Are these people being prosecuted?
Yeah AG they are peaceful i mean its about like the idiots who rioted after Martin Luther KIng was murdered and they just sem to have forgotten MLK was against the use of violence i seems they are more foolish and the rioters should be held accountible and so should their leaders:cool:
19 — Who knows?
FWIW, if it were the opposite situation, ie a Kerry/Edwards campaign area trashed by Bush/Cheney supporters, that wouldn’t be any better in my book. It simply isn’t the classy thing to do, period.
