Dems do it again...

Remember the election day story about tires being slashed on republican vans? Five democratic staffers have been charged with the crime...

Not to be undone by recent revelations and court actions concerning the jamming of Democratic Party phones on election day in 2002 in New Hampshire. Republican paid staffers, led by President Bush's former New England campaign chairman, jammed Democratic phone banks on election day...

So what if it didn't cost a dime? The fact is that these Republicans and these Democrats were intent on keeping each other from mobilizing voters and that is something that should outrage all of us. The only way for anything to be accomplished to stop this sort of underhanded tactics is for people to realize that not only does the other party do it, but so does your own. Let's elevate the political discourse in this nation and stop throwing stones in glass houses.

Agreed. I'm gonna throw my stones at Babs Boxer. And it does matter that it didn't cost anyone $$ tying up phones. Property destruction shows how maliscious the far left really is.

Milwaukee County District Attorney E. Michael McCann, a Democrat "We asked the FBI knowing that this probably wouldn't be their first priority," he said
In other words the Democrat responsible for bringing the perpetrators to justice found a way to delay the investigation. Sounds like a conspiracy to avoid bringing the Democrat-brats to justice to me.
