City Vehicles Vandalized With Political Messages

Quote:
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Racial slurs targeting Barack Obama were discovered spray painted tonight on dozens of city vehicles in Orlando.

The vandalism happened in a City of Orlando parking lot on the corner of south and orange.

Phrases including “Obmama smokes crack” and others phrases with racial slurs were written in blue spray paint on the white city cars and trucks.

Other vehicles appeared to have had their gas tanks tampered with.

Along with the paint, hundreds of business cards were left on windshields.

The cards contain criticism of Obama on one side, and support for Hillary Clinton and her family on the other side.

The same cards were left on channel nine vehicles in Daytona Beach several weeks ago.

The vandalism happened the same night the Obama campaign kicked off its Florida organization with parties across the state.

Local representatives with the Obama campaign told channel nine they weren't aware of any similar incidents.
There goes those nasty Republicans again...and of course, taking direction from McCain himself...

probably the Repugnacans ... why would people write racial slurs who were favoring CLinton? - she has the majority of black support (or, rather, DID).

Probaly NOT the Republicans...

The article originally posted NEGELECTED to point out a little fact so people like you can play the partisan jester...

From an article from a different local media outlet...

'Obama' Hate Messages, Graffiti Cover 60 Orlando City Vehicles

Quote:
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Vandals spray-painted "Obama Smokes Crack" and other hate messages on 60 city vehicles parked across the street from City Hall in downtown Orlando.

Investigators said the vandals painted the messages -- which appear to be politically motivated -- after dark Saturday night.

"I'm driving by and every car I see has been hit with spray paint," witness Mike Lowe said. "There is so much damage to them. There are messages written on them and the vandals left their business card, which is crazy."

Special business cards left near the damaged vehicles contained negative messages about Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain. However, there were positive words about Sen. Hillary Clinton, Local 6's Kimberly Houk reported.

Some of the vehicles also had opened gas tanks.

Orlando police are investigating the incident and the business cards left at the scene.
That was CONVENIENTLY left out of the first article...

It wasn't about politics, but it cretainly reflects more of the same miasma of criminality that keeps getting thicker and thicker around the Dems. For some strange reason the Dems seem to draw more criminals than the Reps. Yes, I know that you can find examples of Reps. with criminal connections, but the Dems just seem to be a criminal magnet.

Yes, I know that you can find examples of Dems with criminal connections, but the GOP just seem to be a criminal magnet.

They support Hillary Clinton and you aren't familiar with what party they are associated with...??? Mikeyy, you make me laugh...

As far as the criminal connections among the Dems. is concerned, these guys keep popping up like a "Whack-a-Mole" game. From the Clintons "Chinese Connection" to Resko to groups like Earth First, the number of criminals that seem drawn to the the left just seem to keep piling up.

And if I said that Fred Phelps was "associated with" Christianity, could you leave it as just that?

The point is that every group has its idiots. To condemn the entire group based on the actions of what could be just an isolated individual who wasn't even elected (regarding the vandalism story) is absurd.
To condemn the entire group based on the actions of a MINORITY percentage of the group (like you're about to do) is just a little less absurd...

Boring how you completely ignored Mikey's point.
The EXACT SAME could be said of the republicans...
You don't even try to deny that!

But we can play the game if you like...
Shall we do this by categories?
Republican presidential campaign official Matthew Joseph Elliott was convicted of sexual exploitation of a child.
Republican Party Chairman Donald Fleischman was charged with two counts of child enticement, two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a child and a single charge of exposing himself to a child.
Republican prosecutor John David Roy Atchison was arrested for soliciting sex from a 5-year old girl, then killed himself three weeks later. At the time of his arrest, Atchison was an "assistant U.S. attorney" appointed by President Bush's attorney general.
Republican city councilman John Bryan killed himself after police began investigating allegations that he had molested three girls, including two of his adopted daughters, ages 12 and 15.
Republican legislator Ted Klaudt was charged with raping girls under the age of 16.
Republican city councilman Joseph Monteleone Jr. was found guilty of fondling underage girls.
Republican congressional aide Jeffrey Nielsen was arrested for having sex with a 14-year old boy.
Republican County Commissioner Patrick Lee McGuire surrendered to police after allegedly molesting girls between the ages of 8 and 13.
Republican prosecutor Larry Corrigan was arrested for soliciting sex from 13-year old girls.
Republican Mayor Jeffrey Kyle Randall was sentenced to 275 days in jail for molesting two boys -- ages ten and 12 -- during a six-year period.
Republican County Board Candidate Brent Schepp was charged with molesting a 14-year old girl and killed himself three days later.
Republican Congressman Mark Foley abruptly resigned from Congress after "sexually explicit" emails surfaced showing him flirting with a 16-year old boy.
Republican executive Randall Casseday of the conservative Washington Times newspaper pleaded guilty to soliciting sex from a 13-year old girl on the internet.
Republican chairman of the Oregon Christian Coalition Lou Beres confessed to molesting a 13-year old girl.
Republican County Constable Larry Dale Floyd pleaded guilty to charges of soliciting sex from an 8-year old girl. Floyd has repeatedly won elections for Denton County, Texas, constable.
Republican judge Mark Pazuhanich pleaded no contest to fondling a 10-year old girl and was sentenced to 10 years probation.
Republican Party leader Bobby Stumbo was arrested for having sex with a 5-year old boy.
Republican petition drive manager Tom Randall pleaded guilty to molesting two girls under the age of 14, one of them the daughter of an associate in the petition business.
Republican County Chairman Armando Tebano pleaded guilty to fondling a 14-year-old girl.
Republican teacher and former city councilman John Collins pleaded guilty to sexually molesting 13 and 14 year old girls.
Republican values create child molesters

Oh my! By your standards, does that make Republicanism => Pedophilia?
Cause I personally think such allegations are ridiculously flawed, but THAT is where your type of thinking leads a more objective person.
