A second presidential campaign sign for Barack Obama was defaced in Harford County, this time between midnight and 6:30 a.m. yesterday in the 900 block of S. Fountain Green Road in Bel Air, the Harford County Sheriff's Office said yesterday. The sign was sprayed with racial slurs, authorities said. The incident is being investigated as a hate crime, as is the weekend incident in Fallston where another Obama sign was defaced. The sheriff's office said it had alerted the Secret Service.

My only comment is that this is investigated a 'hate crime' and hundreds of Bush signs were destroyed in 2004 and it was NOT as a 'hate crime'. Note that the investigation of a hate crime is to determine the 'race' of the suspects.

HATE CRIME #1

"A presidential campaign sign for Barack Obama was defaced over the weekend in the 2100 block of Watervale Road in Fallston, the Harford County Sheriff's Office said yesterday. The sign, defaced Saturday night or Sunday morning, is being investigated as a hate crime, officials said. The sheriff's office said it had alerted the Secret Service because of how the sign had been defaced, but offered no other details. The altered sign has been replaced."

Probably a ‘hate crime’ of the self-inflicted variety.

The MSM should be arrested for a Hate Crime for what they’ve done to Joe the Plumber.

It is a shame that politics and people have sunk to this level.

So, we’re supposed to believe that no McCain/Palin signs have been vandalized in Maryland.

Riiiight.

The likely culprit is the Obama campaign itself. This conforms with dozens of phony hate attacks by moonbats.

Wonder if they uttered the Messiah’s middle name while defacing the sign.

Meanwhile an SNL skit accusing the Palins of molesting their daughters is fine...

There are two things you can bet on as a sure thing . (1) That the sun will rise tomorrow as usual . (2) that 0bama will win the socialist state of Maryland hands down .

Well that’s too bad. Some are turning on their own?

Bush has everything thrown at him but the kitchen sink, even
threats of death and much more.

How many investigations were there? Oh, Bush is white, I forgot.

LOL. This is a hate crime, yet when the same thing happens to McCain/Palin stuff no one even cares to report it.

Unfortunate, if true. But how is this any different than the ‘Sarah Palin is a C**T’ t-shirts? Seems rather “hate”-ful to me.

So now the Secret Service is informed whenever someone defaces a campaign sign?

Definitely. Without “victims” the democrat party wouldn’t exist.

“I bet even money this is an inside job.”

Every time a crime against the left comes up it is a false flag operation. This type of crime is the lefts MO.

“Oh, Bush is white, I forgot.”

Well don’t worry. In the ever deepening morass of political correctness enveloping the planet, you won’t be allowed to forget again, and also, will not be allowed to forget that exploitative whites owe “persons of color” big time, from now until the end of eternity.

Simple test: If a McCain-Palin sign were defaced with "whitey" and "cracker" would it be called a "hate crime"?
