Thugs Assault GOP Offices
Democrats Demonstrate Moral Center

The past several days have seen numerous examples of how far left the
Democrat party has shifted, returning to the "revolutionary violence"
philosophy the leftists groups from the 1960's who have now evolved
into the base of a once respectable political party.
An October 5th attack on the Orlando Bush-Cheney headquarters resulted
in ransacking, looting, physical assault, and malicious destruction of
equipment and campaign materials. These violent criminals, called
"protestors" by the media, were arrested after they stormed the building.
Meanwhile, the Republican campaign office in West Allis, Wisconsin was similarly
sacked while children, housewives, and elderly volunteers watched, fearing
for their well-being. This group of thugs stomped around the facility,
damaged signs and campaign materials, and shouted slogans from a bullhorn
while in the facility.
The West Allis event was not the most recent in Wisconsin, as thugs also
trespassed into the yards of Bush-Cheney supporters, destroyed campaign
signs, and burned swastikas into the lawns before leaving.
Knoxville Tennessee police are investigating a drive-by shooting of the
Bush-Cheney headquarters there. The potentially deadly attack resulted
in no individual harm but did shatter a glass door to the campaign headquarters.
Is this the "new left"'s attempt at their own October Revolution? Has
violence now become a widely accepted tactic of the party on the left?
Only time will tell if the Marxist left of the Democrat party are now ready
to emulate Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler in their effort to gain and retain
political power and achieve a socialist state.
Here are a few other recent incidents:
- Maryland Democrats are not attacking buildings yet. They are, instead,
warming up by making bonfires out of 4'x8' Bush-Cheney campaign signs -
risking the destruction of a house in one incident. Also in Maryland,
two men were arrested while cutting down a large Bush-Cheney billboard with chain-saws.
- Bellevue, Washington GOP Headquarters was vandalized and robbed last week,
following days of sign destruction, tire slashing, and keying of cars.
- Lafayette County's Bush-Cheney headquarters was recently vandalized. The
facility was just ramping up so only a few signs were destroyed in the
incident.
- The Bozeman, MT GOP Headquarters was vandalized a week ago, a rock thrown
through the glass window and signs stolen.
- The Greene County Republican headquarters in Kentucky was vandalized. In
this case there was no trespassing, merely the creative use of spray-paint.
- The Gettysburg, PA GOP Victory Center was fired upon in mid-September.
Lesser events in recent days include:
Every car with a Bush-Cheney bumper sticker in a Jackson County, Oregon
apartment complex had it's tires slashed two weeks ago.
Large Bush-Cheney signs in Carson city, NV are being chain-sawed down.
Frank Hawkins, living in the tri-cities, TN. area now keeps his Bush-Cheney
sign in a tree - where vandals can't get to it. He decided, After multiple
sign destruction and theft incidents, the sign would be safer out of
reach.

The flip side, as many would say, involves the opportunities for Georgia
Democrats in the 2004 General Election. While certainly trying to hold
their own in the upcoming elections, there are opportunities for the
beleaguered Georgia Democratic Party in 2004.
First and foremost, Georgia Democrats have their best opportunity in
Georgia's Twelfth Congressional District. Having drawn the district for
Charles Walker's son, Georgia Democrats were shocked in 2002 when
Republican Max Burns won the seat. Since his victory, Burns has worked
the district as hard as any incumbent in the U. S. Congress. Yet, with
a sizable black voting-age population, Democrats counted the Twelfth
District as one of their most prized opportunities in the 2004
elections. To date, their expectations have not been borne out.
In the primary, Georgia Democrats rallied around John Barrow from Clarke
County as their nominee. And, since the primary, they have run a
vanilla "I am the Democrat" campaign with targeted mailings, radio, and
television. Congressman Burns has responded with a steady stream of
Republican heavyweights from the Vice-President on down. More
significantly, as any incumbent would, Burns has responded with a steady
diet of constituent services that would rival any incumbent in the
Congress. The outcome of the race will likely largely depend on the
respective Parties' ability to generate turnout. Indeed, this will be a
test of ground troops in the truest sense of the word. For Congressman
Jack Kingston, Senate Pro Tem Eric Johnson, and Republican Senate
nominee Johnny Isakson, it is a real test of sheer political muscle.
Look for both parties to put their resources in this race as the
election approaches.
Second, Georgia Democrats have zeroed in on retaining control of the
Georgia House of Representatives. While the numbers for them seem
formidable, the actual races appear easily doable. The most important
consideration for Georgia Democrats remains avoiding what happened in
2002 when Republican Governor Sonny Perdue convinced enough Georgia
Senate Democrats to switch parties to give the GOP control. Already,
current Democratic Speaker Terry Coleman has conceded significant gains
by Republicans in the Georgia House of Representatives. The question
remains regarding whether they will come close enough that party
switchers can make a difference. Undoubtedly, the Georgia Democratic
Party's iron fisted approach to the 2004 elections will make "switchers"
post election much more difficult for the Governor. Yet, the
possibility remains for uncontested rural Democrats across South Georgia
to switch. This will be a test of wills between a Party intent on
control and a Party intent on retaining control.
Third, Georgia Democrats have focused on regaining control of the
Georgia Senate. Increasingly, this has become a fleeting possibility as
Georgia Republicans have established rather firm dominance in a majority
of the Senate districts up for grabs in the 2004 elections. The most
difficult task for Senate Democratic nominees, outside of relative safe
districts, has been defending John Kerry as the Democratic nominee for
President. While the possibility remains, most Georgia Democrats have
abandoned the notion of a Kerry-Edwards election in November. The
result has been an abandonment of any realistic chance of regaining
control of the Georgia Senate by Georgia Democrats. Of course, the real
count remains with Georgia voters who must show up and cast their
ballots on Election Day.

Editor's Note: We've corrected the 4th Congressional District link. Previous
issues had Tom Mills listed. Clearly an error on our part.
911 Families for America has an incredible editorial you must
read. Just click on the picture of a mural,
one of many, U.S. forces found in Iraq. Don't jump to
conclusions however; one couldn't possibly believe Saddam
Hussein has any ties to terrorism.
While on the topic of terrorist ties, we're sure
Salman-Pak
was really a stewardess training facility. Why else would the
fuselage of an airliner be placed at a training facility
in the middle of the desert? Captured Iraqi leadership
was just imagining the hijacking training classes held
there.
The Georgia Democrats actually tried to disenfranchise Georgia
voters by demanding a ruling ordering registrars to
refuse requests for absentee ballots. The ballot request forms
were sent out by the Georgia Republican Party. The
Georgia GOP's lawyer put the Democrat's anti-voting effort
to death quickly by providing legal precedents for
accepting the absentee ballot requests.
The source of the problem was a fine legal point: the inclusion of a
statewide candidate elsewhere on the mailing that included
the absentee ballot request. It sounds like Mr. Kahn
is getting a little nervous.

If the core conservative and heritage faction of the Republican Party are
deemed flaggots, then I guess that makes Sonny THE LIAR a MAGGOT!
Talk about FLIP-FLOPPING, Sonny is the KING of flip flopping, he even beats
Zig Zag Zell.
Can't wait for 2006!
