DENVER (AP) - An Air Force Reserve lieutenant colonel faces eight counts of criminal mischief for allegedly vandalizing cars at Denver International Airport with anti-President Bush messages over the last eight months, the Denver district attorney said Thursday.

Alexis Fecteau, 42, was charged with seven misdemeanors and a felony for allegedly damaging eight cars in the airport's parking lot by painting and scratching them, the DA's office said in a statement.

Police Capt. John Kostigan has said Fecteau spray-painted over pro-Bush stickers and often added his own message to the sides of the vehicles, including a vulgarity, between December and July.

An arrest affidavit said the manager at the National Security Space Institute in Colorado Springs told detectives he started vandalizing vehicles at DIA during the 2004 election campaign. Authorities said he was caught on a surveillance video vandalizing an undercover police car with Bush stickers.

A message left for Fecteau by The Associated Press was not immediately returned.

Fecteau was charged in Denver County Court on Aug. 9. He was arrested on Aug. 5 and released on a $5,000 bond. He is scheduled to be advised of the charges on Aug. 23.

If convicted on the felony charge, he could face up to 6 years in prison

This story gets more strange as time goes on. Fecteau sounds like a real fruit-loop, of the Cindy Sheehan stripe.

I am sure that the military will toss him after Colorado is done with him. He'll get "dismissed" from the service and lose all benefits. Serves him right.

I meant to write the max of six years, but I guess I was too happy to type correctly.

This is the first report that I have seen that says that he has been charged and with a felony at that. The other reports said that he may be facing charges.

Air Force employee

Are people who serve in the military just "employees" now?

Notice the cops didn't catch the guy until after he vandalized a police car?

Well, actually if he is n full time Guard member, during the week he is considered a federal employee. It's only when he is doing his monthly weekend that he is in the Guard (or whenever he is activated)...la

A light colonel did this? At 42? A late-bloomin' idiot.

Or a liberal. Or is that a distinction without a difference?

I had nails punched into the tires of my Bush-stickered car four straight days while parked in the secure lot of The Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle.

Leftists are not peaceful.
