The presidential campaign got a little too hot for two Portland men who were arrest early Saturday morning, Oct. 11, and charged with burning a John McCain campaign sign in Southeast Portland.

Portland Fire and Rescue investigators said the two men made a Molotov cocktail and threw it at the sign in the 7900 block of Southeast 17th Avenue.

Leslie Brockette Leudtke, 23, and Kevin Carl Robinson, 23, were held on at least eight felony charges of making a destructive device and possession of a destructive device. Leudtke also was charged with reckless burning.

Looks like those hateful, racist, angry Republicans are at it again. McCain better demand they stop. Sarah Palin has caused all of this. <--- extreme sarcasm

Wouldn’t kicking over the sign be a lot easier?

Both 23 years old.

Probably living in Mom’s basement.

I’m surprised they didn’t place a cross in the yard, and light it as well.

I figured they were from Reed College but they looked too clean cut.

"Portland Fire and Rescue investigators said the two men made a Molotov cocktail and threw it at the sign in the 7900 block of Southeast 17th Avenue."

Men? That's a little bit of a stretch. Probably a couple of poofters.

If the prosecutor or the judge is a dim, those two lowlife thugs will walk.

They’ll say these “youths” were simply expressing themselves and as such are protected under the 1st Amendment.

This is what is in our future if ACORN consolidates its power with a friendly Obama.

I’m curious which enviro-whacko or anarchist group they’re affiliated with? Those of us threatened conservatives in Oregon know what kind of people these scum are. Probably trust fund babies affiliated with ELF or the Ruckus Society. The same scum that spray acid on Police Officers and then accuse them of brutality.

We need to get Drudge, Rush and Fox news to pick this up. The world can see how tolerant Obama voters are. Throwing bombs like Ayers pals.

They’ll be back online posting to the DUmp before you know it. They have internet access in most jails/prisons.

The AP or Reuters or CNN wouldn’t run this story or even get near it unless it was an Obama sign that had been fire-bombed. A tip of the hat to “The Bee” for running this story.

Hi, Doug, how ya doin’? please spread this link around as much as possible. The Clinton supporters are now getting a taste of their own medicine as to how the media works. If we can force the media to report this, it could have repercussions in our favor. Thanks.
