Vandals Attack McCain Supporters’ Homes in Northern VA

Just further proof that partisan politics has gotten way out of hand…  Redstate.com has posted some photos of a vandal attack on the homes of McCain supporters in Northern Virginia.  It’s a shame that one cannot express their political views without risk to their property or even personal safety.

The photos are marked copyrighted, so I’m only going to post the link.  Those who might take offense at foul language might not want to click, the vandals were obviously trying to be vile.  Pictures are here on flickr.

Volunteer Made Up Story About Mutiliation

Yesterday, a woman claimed that she was robbed and mutilated after using an ATM in Pittsburgh.  KDKA is reporting that the woman had inconsistencies in her story and eventually admitted to making the story up.  In a way, this is a good thing (that someone didn’t actually perpetrate this act)… in another, it’s absolutely disgusting that the woman, 20-year-old Ashley Todd, made this story up.

Acts like this are what feed blind partisanship.  It does not further anyone’s campaign, and does not move forward the political discussion.

The woman will face charges.  Police have not yet disclosed what the charges will be.

McCain Volunteer Mutilated in Pittsburgh

A 20-year-old woman was robbed outside an ATM last night in Pittsburgh.  The woman, a McCain volunteer from Texas, says she had just withdrawn money from an ATM.  The robber, reported as a dark-skinned black male, 6′ 4″ and 200 pounds, approached the woman with a knife and took $60 from her.

She retreated to her car, which has McCain stickers on it and the man became agitated.  He punched her in the back of the head, kicked her, pushed her to the ground, and carved the letter ’B’ into her face.  Unfortunately, the attack happened outside of the view of the ATM camera.
