Bricks shatter glass at NY Democratic offices
The Associated Press

ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- Authorities are trying to find out who threw bricks through windows and doors at two Democratic Party offices in western New York before Sunday's health care vote.

Monroe County Democratic Committee officials say a brick shattered glass doors at the party's headquarters in Rochester on Saturday or Sunday. No one was in the building at the time. Rochester police are investigating.

A brick was thrown through a window at Democratic Rep. Louise Slaughter's district office in Niagara Falls early Friday.

Slaughter's district stretches from Rochester to the Buffalo area. She has been a key supporter of the health care reform bill passed Sunday by the House.

5. The disenfranchised doing the pointless for the absurd
I was a critic of this bill, too, but even when Congress voted to allow Bush to send our troops into Iraq, I didn't respond by hurling bricks through my Republican legislators' windows.

20. Neither did I, but plenty of Democrats voted for the two war resolutions, too.
And for the Patriot Act. And for retroactive immunity for phone companies, etc.

In fact, they still are.

But, no, I didn't throw bricks at the windows of the Republicans or the Democrats who voted for those things. I even supported some of the Demnocrats who did those things. Don't know that I ever will support them again, but, by 2007, I was desperate.

8. Great --
As long as no one gets hurt, bring it on. Right-wingers are now depicting themselves as vandals who run and hide. It is short-sighted and will harm their image. By a lot, if it becomes a trend.

11. These fools are off the chain
What will they do when immigration reform is put on the table? When will Republican lawmakers and radio rwanda be called out for inciting violence/terrorism in the U.S.?

This whole thing's got to be worse for Republicans than the Terri Schiavo embarassment.
