“Looks like there’s more glass outside than inside.”

Either that, or there was a highly localized snowfall right outside the office at about the same time.

Exactly what I was thinking.

First clue: conservatives don’t do this kind of thing. So that narrows it down to—a gang of extremist RINOs? I don’t think so.

Good thing it didn’t hit that box of pre-marked ballots.

You have to figure Ubama campaign offices would be likely gathering places for thugs and drug dealers, etc.
Maybe somebody was just pissed because their welfare check was late.

“Dem shoots at office to get sympathy for Obama..”

How did Biden’s plane get to Denver so fast?

No doubt the police lab will conveniently find two micro-inscriptions on the bullet :

(1) "IF FOUND, PLEASE RETURN TO THE DENVER TEA PARTY."

(2) "PROPERTY OF THE DENVER TEA PARTY."

Is that a double layer glass? Strange way to break if it was a bullet and I agree with your observation, way more glass utside than inside.

It’s double-pane tempered glass. Sometimes that stuff will break on its’ own for no apparent reason, or just from a rapid temperature change.

Maybe they used a BB gun. There was no mention of the cops recovering a projectile in the article.

Yeah, I guess the horse manure dumped at an OH Obama office didn’t do the trick. They had to kick it up a notch.

"It looks a whole lot less like a bullet hole than like the outline of someone trying to escape... "

I think it was The Hulk. I told them not to make him angry.

That’s what happens when you try to hang a poster on a window with a nail gun.

The moment I heard about this I knew it was a Dem who did it to gain sympathy for Obama..boy he must be down BIG in Colorado for his supporters to do this. First of all, your absolutely correct..Conservatives don’t do this kind of nonsense..I wouldnt do anything destructive to their campaign office..they have every right to have a campaign office there if they choose, just because I think they are a sack of poo doesn’t mean they can’t have an office there for their messiah..just like I wouldnt key any cars that have Obama stickers on them(But Dems key cars of people who have Romney stickers on them) see that is the difference here, Conservatives wouldn’t do this sort of this, this is something out of the Alinsky playbook for Dems to have the pity party

Im no gun expert(But for the moment I will play one) that doesn’t look like a bullet hole, that looks like a rock or a brick thrown at the window
