The photo I saw was only of the little girl crying after they did it.

Oh, I thought you meant afterwards.

The DUmmies are all excited that this is a "set-up." They link to some blog that claims the father does this during every campaign, and the blog shows a picture of what it says is his family. They claim the guy in the union shirt next to him in the rally photo is one of his sons (though they claim it could be either of two, if that tells you anything). I don't know if this really is his family, because I can't recognize him in the photo, and I'm not even sure the guy next to the father at the rally was the one who tore up the sign. They sure are all fired up about it, with numerous posts saying things like "I knew no democrat would ever do something like that, that's what Republicans do" and the like.

union thug with a wide smile on his face
A smug smirk is more like it.

My condolences to you and your family on your loss, from a veteran Army dog. God bless.

Yeah, but if you read Jonah's post you'll find out that the whole thing looks to be set up with the guys son wearing a union shirt and ripping up the sign. Looks like the dad has done this before SEVERAL times.

If you look at the family picture posted there you see the guy in the union shirt wearing a grey sweater.

IUPAT = International Union of Painters and Allied Trades

Drop the IUPAT prez - James Williams - an email. Send him a nice photo of the incident.

No, it's not over the top, Brian'sDad. I wrote something similar to Mr. Williams yesterday.

Really dumb thing for the Democrats to do, what with all the bad publicity and all about beating up on a 3 year old. They should have just had her arrested for tresspassing, like that lady at the Laura Bush rally the other day.

No, you dont. You dont even see anyone who looks like the goon in that photo. Other than being a white male.

I want this picture out there everyday as a reminder. It does not bother me to see this posted over and over. We need a reminder of what we are up against!

Pure B.S. Who are the ones having union goons acting as enforcement, who are the ones keying cars with Bush stickers on them??? This campaign has been a further step in the brown shirt tactics the Rats have been practicing since the Clinton days.

No, in fact, it would work better if the three year old wasn't in on it.

It's cute, the Dems trying to have their own investigative blog moment and all, but they're going to learn an important lesson here about having facts on your side.

Here's a clue- proving the goon isn't the guy's son will be ridiculously easy.
