Another Brick in the Glass (Not)
Well, by now you know there are dozens of Tea Party members upset with the healthcare vote. Which is curious, because dozens appear to outnumber supporters of the legislation.
But the tiny, insignificant amount of Tea Party folks upset with the Healthcare bill accounts for the incredibly small number of violent acts sweeping across the nation!
Here is a list of window-smashing incidents.
Niagara Falls: Bricks thrown through windows as Rep. Slaughter’s office? True.
Rochester: Brick thrown through front doors of Dem HQ? True. But the incident happened prior to the healthcare vote, and appears to have been related to other issues. The story has consequently largely vanished from the news.
Wichita: Brick thrown through window of Sedgwick County Dem HQ? True: a whacknut in Alabama has (somehow) claimed responsibility.
Anchorage: Rock hurled through window of Dem HQ offices? Hoax! Anchorage police say there was window damage, but no evidence of politically related activity, and no rock was found.
Tucson: Brick thrown through window of Rep. Gifford’s window? True.
Cincinnati: Brick thrown through window of Rep. Driehaus’s window? Hoax!
Denver: Bricks thrown through windows of Denver Dem HQ? True, but turns out…the culprit was a Democrat attempting to “Stir up hate.”
Howell, MI: Brick thrown through window of GOP office? True.
Richmond: Bullet fired into window of GOP House Minority Whip LeaderEric Cantor’s office? True, but believed to be a negligently fired bullet that struck the window by accident.
Albemarle County, VA: Bricks thrown through windows of local GOP HQ? True.
Wow. Looks like the Tea Party is just as mad at the GOP as they are the Democrats.
Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
