I wonder if any other state Republican Parties are documenting the ever-increasing incidents of violence and vandalism perpetrated by Kerry supporters?

If they don't, they should; and the national Republican Party should have a page devoted to links to all of them.

One last thought... I hope that all of who are able are taking election day off work to work with our local parties to help get our voters to the polls, and to see to it that our polling places are safe from the folks who will continue these acts of violence and voter intimidation against Bush/Cheney supporters.

Interesting post. AFA the first ad w/ Osama and the Bush/Cheney sign, folks on this forum have posted here Osama w/Kerry sign and made it look like a FNC screencap.

Both sides do stuff like that.

This stuff doesn't make me angry anymore. It just makes me laugh. Look at that pic of Bin Laden's group holding a Bush/Cheney sign--how assine is that? Yeah, re-elect the men who are hunting us down and killing us. That makes a lotta sense.

OCTOBER SURPRISE AD:

Political Operative Veterans Against George W. Bush (POVAGWB) Meeting: Mr. Kerry Reports (Serious Parody):

“When I attended a POVAGWB meeting recently, I heard testimony from Campaign Operative Veterans that they had:

• Cut off the locks and bashed in doors of regional Republic Campaign Headquarters
• Raped and defiled various Republican office machines
• Randomly shot weapons into Republican Campaign Headquarters
• Defiled US Mail delivered to the Republican Regional Campaign Headquarters
• Razed Republican campaign offices across the country in the manner reminiscent of Genghis Kahn
• Destroyed foodstuffs found in campaign office refrigerators
• Kicked their dogs
• Used large union thugs to destroy GWB campaign signs held by three-year-old girls
• Told story after story of falsely accusing Republicans the gruesome act of denying minorities the right to vote
• Committed other violent campaign atrocities under the tacit control and support of the DNC commanders”

Mr. Kerry denies being at a DNC meeting where these tactics were discussed and planned, but witness say he was there. Others are accusing him of meeting with Carl Rove in an attempt to end the campaign early and declare GWB the winner.

Bwahahaha!!! Check out what happened to the B/C sign out here!!

Sorry for the super-large pic, but I had to share!

Some twirp spent 45 minutes setting this up across from my road the other day, and when I drove by it less than 12 hours later, someone had displayed exactly what they think of Bush/Cheney!! Perhaps a bit of revenge for those of you who had your Kerry/Edwards signs stolen

Have you noticed that "fascist" is the Left's favorite word? Anybody that disagrees with them is immedately called a fascist. This is funny since I doubt that any of these unwashed, unemployable idiots knows what a fascist is.

#1 A Vote for Bush = a Vote for Terrorism!

#2 Democrats have sunk to a new low. A group of Minnesota Kerry supporters plan on airing a TV ad showing Bin Laden and his henchmen with Bush/Cheney sign


I've made and held signs that are equally provacative coming from the other view point. Specifically, my "liars club" sign and "Kerry is a poodle" sign could be considered over the line. I will continue to use these signs because the liars club sign is based on truth and the poodle sign is not too much different than what goes on Saturday Night Live.

I do think violence and destruction of property is out of line.

During a solo freep of Bill Clinton/Kathleen Townsend, someone erected a 8 by 15 Ehrlich sign which fell over when the wind blew and it flattened a bunch of Townsend yard signs in the process.

Not only did I put the Ehrlich sign back up, but also the Townsend signs too.

Advice in a conference call to county chairs last month was to call the media, the campaign and the police for each incident and to use it to gain earned media. Also to press charges, even though in most incidents it is a misdemeanor.

I think you can count on us publicizing these attacks.

I also think it will make the hatriots who are still decent folks at heart stay home. Nothing will make them vote for Bush, but it might bother them to vote for fascists.

Hmmmm....setting fire to people's decks, intimidating voters and attacking little girls...you know those "Religion of Peace®" alerts we have whenever there's another terrorist attack or beheading? We need "Party of Peace" alerts attached to these incidents.

"I wonder if any other state Republican Parties are documenting the ever-increasing incidents of violence and vandalism perpetrated by Kerry supporters?"

Surely the democRATs wouldn't do such things. They are the party of peace, love and tolerance, you know. It was really Bush's people doing these things trying to make democRATs look bad. < /sarcasm >

Men videotaped vandalizing sign.

Summit elections official catches culprits tearing down Bush-Cheney poster

Two men who tore down a Bush-Cheney sign and urinated on it were caught on videotape by Summit County Republican officials early Friday morning.

The videotape shows the men sneaking into the yard of a West Market Street home and bending the sign to the ground. The men struggled to rip the sign out of the ground by shaking it and pulling it but couldn't get it off the posts, so they knocked it down. Sounds heard on the tape suggest the men urinated on the sign. They were white males, about 30 to 35 years old, well-dressed and well-groomed. They parked across the street in what police think was a foreign car, a Toyota or Honda.

The homeowner, Steve Kotsatos, who is also assistant to the director of the Summit County Board of Elections, called Akron police dispatchers at 10:38 a.m. Friday and told them about how his campaign sign was vandalized.

He said he caught the vandals on a night-vision camera he had installed the day before.

``A couple of days ago my neighbor's sign was set on fire with a blowtorch so I figured I might be next,'' Kotsatos said. ``This is not only criminal damaging but a safety hazard.''

The large 4-by-8-foot, red, white and blue sign was tipped over in Kotsatos' yard about 1 a.m. Friday.

John Kerry's name was scrawled across Bush's name in black marker on one side of the sign -- the work of previous vandals, Kotsatos said.

He discovered the bent sign at 6:45 a.m.

Police took a report of the incident and retrieved a copy of the videotape to review. No arrests have been made.

Akron police Lt. Sylvia Trundle said depending on the amount of damage -- officials estimate the sign's value at $200 to $400 -- the culprits could be charged with vandalism, but if the value is $500 or more they could face criminal damaging or criminal mischief charges. They are all misdemeanors and would carry a maximum sentence of six months in jail and/or a $1,000 fine.

Local Republicans and Democrats say the stealing and damaging of campaign signs has been worse this presidential race than in past races. In some cases, the signs have been shredded and burned.

According to the Summit County Republican Party, about 3,000 of the 4,000 signs the GOP has handed out supporting Bush and Cheney have been taken from yards or damaged.

More than 1,000 signs backing Sen. Kerry, D-Mass., and running mate Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C., have been taken from yards, according to the Summit County Democratic Party.

Both parties deny taking part in any sign stealing.

Even political leaders like Summit GOP Party Chairman Alex Arshinkoff and Summit Democratic Party Finance Chairman Wayne Jones have seen their signs targeted.

Officials in Medina, Wayne and Portage counties also have reported thefts of campaign signs.

Area police departments say they investigate sign theft complaints when they get them. They say it's best when a description of the vandals or their vehicle can be given.

Kotsatos said he had a Bush sign in his yard four years ago and nobody bothered it. The Republican Party is looking into a possible $1,000 reward for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the men.

I have a Veterans For BUSH sticker on my van and I live in ultra liberal Miami, FL and I've not seen any of that stuff. Of course I have about five other little NRA stickers next to it: My life member sticker; my INSTRUCTOR sticker; my IDPA sticker; my "I'm the NRA and I VOTE" sticker are also there. Wonder if that has anything to do with it? An armed society is a polite society. LOL

This t-shirt, which was for sale at the Democrats’ protests, depicts the President peeing oil on the earth.

Eh. I don't get it.

Meanwhile, here is videotaped EVIDENCE of 2 Kerry supporters in Ohio tearing down and urinating on someone's Bush-Cheney signs.

Men videotaped vandalizing Bush sign.

Civil War II is here. I expect the left to riot in the streets when President Bush wins re-election. Note to Law Enforcement, don't be afraid to shoot the domestic terrorists on sight when you catch them in the act of revolution.

For 200+ years, one of the greatest traditions in this nation's history was the peaceful exchange of power. Bill Clinton and Terry McAuliffe saw fit to end that.

F. Democrats.
