Liberal Allegedly Vandalizes Denver Democratic HQ
[Guest post by DRJ]
A 24-year-old liberal has been arrested for vandalizing the Denver Democratic Party headquarters:
“Apparently the eleven broken windows had posters promoting Obama’s heathcare reform. Democratic State Party Chair Pat Waak also noted that an anti-Obamacare poster was glued to an outside wall, presumably at the time the window vandalism took place. The obvious diagnosis is that this is a clear case of conservative town-hall fury run amok. Only, in his mug shot, [Maurice] Schewenkler looks more Sonic Youth than Reagan-youth. Plus, it turns out that someone bearing his exact name — a fairly rare one, to say the least — was once an employee of a progressive political action committee based in Colorado.
What the…?”
H/T to the Instapundit, who has a multitude of links, and Michelle Malkin.

Is this in any way surprising? I blame Bush. And teabaggers. And death panels. And, Kyoto.

These people are really, really sick.
happyfeet (6b707a) — 8/25/2009 @ 8:44 pmIts hilarious that this little dirty trick was so incompetently carried out. Much like the fake doctor at Jackson-Lee’s townhall.
Its like a … a metaphor.
SPQR (26be8b) — 8/25/2009 @ 8:46 pmSo, the only acts of violence and vandalism that have actually happened have been done by the Leftists, yet the Right is the one portrayed as angry and violent. If the media ever became honest, the Earth would immediately slam into the Sun.

AD - RtR/OS! (c17854) — 8/25/2009 @ 9:53 pmThe perps were interrupted in the act. Maurice or his accomplice probably had a noose ready to plant so they could blame the thing on racist conservative evil-mongers. The left is very big on fake noose incidents.

happyfeet (6b707a) — 8/25/2009 @ 10:13 pmOMG!! It’s a big conspiracy to make it look like the Republican’s is bad or sumpin’!!
No. Probably not, anyway. As a young liberal who hates the Democratic Party as much (if not more) than he hates the Republican Party, I would wager that this young liberal was more likely than not sick of the bullshit his peeps put forward as “Progressive Politics”. I’ve wanted to bust up Democratic offices a few times, myself – it’s only ‘cuz I’m a nice, law-abiding young person that I refrained. But I wouldn’t read too much into this, beyond the burgeoning disgust of liberals with Obama and the Democratic Party (which is a weighty matter in its own rite, but not what this is being made out to be).

I know you’re also pissed, but I didn’t know you worked for SEIU affiliated organizers like this kid. That fact has extra weight for me.
There’s another reason you didn’t bust up Dem HQ’s:
You have a brain.

SPQR (26be8b) — 8/26/2009 @ 5:22 amI certainly hope that as more info. comes out re; this individual that we find a connection to the pro health care thugs. It would be their style,but I will give it a little time before I claim to know who the perp, or perps were.

Fair enough, but why do you suppose the DNC party leader was so quick to denounce the act as another hatemongering action from the Right? Far too much of a coincidence, I think.

“The woman arrested by Denver police on suspicion of smashing 11 windows at Colorado Democratic Party headquarters appears to be the same woman who handles the books for many other Democratic-leaning political committees and was paid $500 by the leftist Colorado Citizens Coalition for “communications” in November 2008.”
