The FBI and Capitol Police are investigating the vicious attack of a top Senate staffer at her home last week amid concerns that the assault might be related to her work on the Finance Committee. Emilia DiSanto, chief investigator for committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), arrived at her suburban Virginia home after work Wednesday about 6:30 p.m. As she was unloading belongings from her car, a 6-foot-1-inch white man dressed in black struck her repeatedly with an unidentified object believed to be a baseball bat. After she screamed to her family inside the house, the assailant fled. DiSanto was transported...

Byron York of The National Review had a great article yesterday about the devolution of the MoveOn Katrina Victims protest at the White House.Dana Milbank of the Washington Post also wrote about MoveOn's troubled demonstration.However, apparently both these fine observers of the scene had departed when the worst part of the MoveOn protest happened.As Angelwood and I stood talking and debating with malingering MoveOn protesters, a man standing about twenty or thirty feet away from us was giving an interview with an independent D.C. journalist.I recognized the man as a long time liberal activist from Florida whom we had first...

Two sons of prominent Democratic polticians and three paid party activists will face felony charges as a result of a widely-publicized attempt to keep Republicans from voting on Election Day in Milwaukee. The charges will be filed on Monday, highlighting the other unrelated issues of voter fraud in Wisconsin's largest city and Democratic stronghold:

Expect tire-slashing charges Monday Sources say politicians' sons, 3 other Democrats will be hit with felonies Posted: Jan. 22, 2005 Spivak & Bice Cary Spivak &Dan Bice E-MAIL  |  ARCHIVE   The investigation into the Great Tire-Slashing Caper will end Monday with felony charges against the adult sons of two prominent Milwaukee politicians - U.S. Rep.

Go here http://villagevoice.com/news/0447,sutton,58615,9.html to see an utterly biased, disgusting characterization of those who are happy with President Bush's win as gap toothed, wife beating rednecks. I hesitate to post this in humor because it is NOT funny. Laura Ingraham is talking about this right now. I apologize if this has been posted. I did search but did not find it.

I see fr is being sued for Scientology/Civil Rights. Apparently Jim Robinson is involved in a Lisa McPherson style assault and battery. Anyone know anything?

It's totally honest, and it will get repukes to read all the stories from soldiers about how they don't like Bush.

Steve Gardner was there with John Kerry. He was the forward gunner on Kerry's boat in Vietnam. He watched, worked with, and closely observed Kerry on a daily basis for a significant amount of time in the Combat Zone in Vietnam. Long enough to know the guy was a schmuck and slimeball. He was the one guy Kerry and his operatives could not buy off. Sorry, this is long... but those who are grateful for winning this pivotal election should read this.... Steve Gardner was virtually the only Swift Boat Sailor of Kerry's so-called "Band of Brothers" under Kerry's direct...

Today’s DUmmie FUnnies is a SPECIAL EDITION featuring the pissed off ringleader of all DUmmies---Skinner himself. I hope you excuse the brevity of this edition of the DUmmie FUnnies but I think we need to devote this whole special edition analyzing Skinner and his threats to the DUmmie Funnies. You can see Skinner’s angry post in yesterday’s DUmmie FUnnies HERE. Obviously the poor fellow is upset that he and his fellow DUmmies are being turned into laughingstocks by the DUmmie FUnnies. Also note his extreme fear of a DUmmie FUnnies book. So is this REALLY Skinner of the DUmmies? Judging...

Folks, here's your chance to have at one of them - this message was posted on the NYC craigslist. "I would like to fight a Bush supporter to vent my anger. If you are one, have a fiery streek, please contact me so we can meet and physically fight. I would like to beat the s**t [edited] out of you." http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/nyc/47785163.html

I would like to fight a Bush supporter to vent my anger. If you are one, have a fiery streek, please contact me so we can meet and physically fight. I would like to beat the #### out of you.

"Straight male seeks Bush supporter for fair, physical fight," reads a recent posting on Craigslist.org, the popular nationwide bulletin board. "I would like to fight a Bush supporter to vent my anger." A joke? No, says Paul Valerio, 34, a graphic designer from Oakland, Calif., who told us yesterday that he's ready to rumble but hasn't gotten any takers yet. "I'm 6-foot-1 and 236 pounds. I think that's a heavyweight category," he said, then warned all comers: "I can hold my own." Guess all we need now to settle this is a willing red-stater and some airfare."

I saw this on a Jeannie Most piece when CNN did a segment on the whiney libs in NYC complaining that GWB had been relected. I couldn't believe it was true yet someone sent me a link just today: Straight male seeks Bush supporter for fair, physical fight - m4m -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to: Date: Wed Nov 03 19:11:50 2004 I would like to fight a Bush supporter to vent my anger.

HIGH SCHOOL ATTACK: KERRY TAUNTS TIED TO FIGHT Wed Nov 10 2004 09:55:52 ET Three high school students face charges for using a bat to beat another student who taunted them about being John Kerry supporters days after the contentious election. The 17-year-old Apple Valley victim was assaulted Thursday in a Minnesota Zoo parking lot near Apple Valley's School of Environmental Studies, better known as the zoo school. Chad McKay, also 17, stood over the victim attempting to protect him. "It's a good thing to see young people interested and excited about politics," said Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom. "It's...

Unfortunately, it appears that when Elizabeth Edwards speaks some people actually listen. This sad fact might be innocuous enough if the aspiring Second Lady were trading parenting or dieting tips. But instead semi-reformed former Deaniacs and Kucinich Kids seem to have latched onto Edwards' recent promise to a worried supporter that post-election riots will not wrack the nation -- so long as the Kerry-Edwards ticket walks away with it. The suggestion, of course, is that there indeed will be riots if John F. Kerry's boyhood dreams of ascending to his rightful position as ruler of the universe are squashed by...

I am posting the flyers placed recently in North St. Louis, a predominately black area. The first one is from the group Americans Comming Together. It implys that republicans used waterhoses on blacks during the civil rights movement, although, as someone here pointed out, it was actually democrats who did this. See for yourself: The next one we found Sunday, on the windshields of cars at churches. We were putting out pro-bush, anti-abortion literature. Notice it's from "Clergy." I guess they don't care about Kerry's view on abortion: I was quite mad when I saw these. Complete condescending lies....

As Dana Roberts drove her friend to her car, they went past people waiting to see Senator John Kerry. The problem, Roberts is president of the college republicans. Her car is covered with Bush campaign stickers. The Kerry supporters then started vandalizing her car, while they drove past. At one point they were mooned and beer was thrown into their car.

I received these photos from a contact in Fairbanks. Contact stated that Murkowski HQ has been contacted and they wish to leave it up for awhile.

AKRON, Ohio -- This presidential campaign season seems to have a little bit of everything, NewsChannel5 reported. One Akron man decided to take matters into his own hands to catch campaign sign vandals. SLIDESHOW: Political Sign Damaged Steve Katsatos set up a night-vision security camera in a tree. He allegedly caught two men at 1 a.m. Friday ripping down the a 4-foot by 8-foot Bush-Cheney sign in his yard. The Summit County Republican headquarters said 3,000 of the 4,000 signs they've set up have been vandalized.
