Weird that we didn't pick up on this when it happened. Note the circumstances, she was targeted for intimidation.

There was a posting on it when it happened but this is the first Ive seen since.

FBI Called in on Hill

“If this is work-related, there’s a lot of people on my staff who might be in a dangerous situation,” said Grassley, visibly disturbed.

My, Chuckles (R-Retirement Village) certainly has a high opinion of his importance.

Oh, geez. How long you think it'll be before Sen. Dayton (D-MN) flees?

You made a comment on the Iowa board about Grassley being "senile". Of course, he isn't and I particularly recall him being very high profile in a couple of things:

• Pushing for tax cuts.
• Limiting rainforest subsidies.
• The Barrett Report. It was through some deft maneuvering that he got that thing released.

If what I read is correct DC is a place where assaults occur every day. Are they sure this was not just another druggie looking for some cash to buy more drugs?

This sounds like a tactic that was used by animal rights nutjobs over in the UK, except in this case they have taken it a step further by actually physically harming an individual. A recent article on the UK kooks had one of them stating that they couldn't believe that other, like-minded individuals hadn't taken up these tactics for their own causes given some of the success in the UK. Looks like someone is taking that kooks advice.

I read the first posting a few days ago and it all seemed as weird then as it does now. I sure hope she is o.k., and I cannot imagine why anyone would hurt a lady getting stuff out of her car unless they intended to try and intimidate her in her investigations. Sounds like they really beat the stuffings out of this poor lady and I hope they are caught, and put away for a long time.
