"Those of us who do this for a living are accustomed to this and it doesn't come as a tremendous surprise, knowing the absolute rabid hatred of the left out here. But I gotta tell you, it really worries me that it's going to deter some of our volunteers from wanting to work as late at night," director Tim Trickery told KOIN News 6.

They are victims of the evil left. Why is it that the only publicity of this sort of thing is given to Republicans? They likely did it themselves, Republicans don't have volunteers to scare off.

2. I Wouldn't Put It Past Them

But if it was a group of "liberals," they are a bunch of ass-hats.

4. Oregon? nt

[Qutzupalotl]

11. Yes.

The station leans heavily rightward. During the antiwar protests, they would only show a few seconds of the people, then cut back to the anchor saying, "Fortunately, no major vandalism occurred this time," or some such crap.

Someone smashed the windows of the Multnomah County Republican office in Southeast Portland on Thursday, perhaps the latest sign some Oregonians have tossed out civility in their zeal to put their man in the White House.

There's no data indicating political vandalism, sign-stealing and frayed tempers are up this year from 2000, when Bush narrowly beat Democrat Al Gore nationally and lost Oregon by fewer than 7,000 votes.

"It's no surprise that people on the other side tend to act gangsterlike with their violence during this time of year," said Rori Patrise Smith, spokeswoman for Oregon Republican Party Victory 2004. :puke:

"I honestly think the tone is set from the top, and you've seen it all over the country," said Lisa Sohn, Oregon spokeswoman for the Kerry campaign. "If you don't agree with these people, it's not OK."

Bill Lunch, political science chairman at Oregon State University, said surveys show the level of voter involvement this year is breathtaking.

[DulceDecorum]

broken from the inside

It sounds like a case of "friendly fire."

The GOP is faking vandalism to make a group look bad.

[LoZoccolo]

We'd like to start looking for Parlock's name.
