Politics in Gainesville turned rough and tumble Thursday night when, police say, a social behavior sciences instructor - a Democrat - punched the chairman of the Alachua County Republican Executive Committee in the face.
David Philip McCally, 55, of Gainesville faces misdemeanor battery and criminal mischief charges after he was accused of hitting both committee chairman Travis Horn, 32, and a life-sized, cardboard cutout of President George Bush.
The incident occurred at the Republican headquarters in downtown Gainesville at about 7:30 p.m.

Yeah, I hear ya! I'm wondering in fact why something "bigger" hasn't happened yet. But you're right, it's shaping up in that direction. Heck, I can even see many of these wackos allying themselves with muslim terrorists just to satisfy their hatred for whatever it is in life that's crawled up their colons and has turned their mouths into gun ports.
Hmmm...let's see...part-time instructor in behavioral sciences vs. Army Ranger...where would I put my money...hmmm...where, oh where...

Democrats - the party of tolerance and compassion (sarcasism)
"Of course I'm going to have a restraining order filed against him," Horn said. "I certainly will seek his removal from the classroom. Obviously he's shown a serious lack of judgment."
As for Horn's commitment to his political opinions, he said, "If I have to take a beating every day for George W. Bush to be president, I'll do that. My passion for my beliefs continues unabated."
Oh my, this is priceless. Thanks for the post.
Send Mr. Horn some appreciation! http://www.gopalachua.com/contactus.html
I love this man!
I have to say we are in a period of "enlightenment". Up till now the majority of these types of been disguising themselves as emotional healthy, stable adults. Working in our communities, pasting a smile on their face for the kids. G.W. is exposing their irrational state of mind without lifting a finger, to our benefit. Any illusion of peace and tolerance has been lifted.
Unfortunately, I can. History speaks all too clearly on that point.
"Bold" is a pretty mild word for what some would call psychotic behavior.
