reTHUGlicans STEAL, spray paint KERRY signs in Virginia..BIG time losers!
calling us "commies".....it's a good sign that those THUGS are LOSING Virginia....HANG IN THERE, VIRGINIA....keep on trucking...we're WINNING and those reTHUGlicans KNOW that Virginia is now BLUE !!! the THUGS are going insane, calling us commies !!! BOOT THESE BASTARDS OUT.....

from today's Washington Post
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A57372-2004Oct23.html


Campaign workers in Virginia use such words as "vicious," "persecution" and "intimidation" to describe the tenor of what some say are the worst "sign wars" they have seen.

"We have had signs torn down, signs stolen, signs desecrated. We've even had signs telling people not to take our signs torn down," said Laura Bland, spokeswoman for the Virginia Democratic Party. "In little Lynchburg alone, 300 signs have been stolen or vandalized."

At Democratic headquarters in Norfolk, pro-Bush slogans were spray-painted across the brick exterior of the building, along with the word "Commie." "In all my years of political work, I've never been called a Commie before," Bland said.

Ginny Peters, chair of the Fairfax County Democratic Committee and herself a victim of sign theft, said her office hears from local Democrats every day about the same thing. "Everybody's complaining," she said. "Signs disappear every year, but not with the regularity and intensity."

1. hope you have the best of a colorful revolution: VA goes blue, red pukes
turn green with envy and purple with rage whereupon Kerry will restore a hopeful and bright light that incorporates ALL the colors ...

I remember you told us here at DU that Virginia was going blue, and their desperation is really showing ... On another thread today, when someone asked when we would KNOW that Kerry was in for a win, I said that it would be when they announced VA went for Kerry.

"In little Lynchburg alone, 300 signs have been stolen or vandalized."

4. In an interesting post a few days ago
someone told of leaving their vandalized sign standing, with the small addition to it saying-
"you will know them by their works"

It was by all accounts, very effective.

6. I saw 2 large 4'x8' Kerry Edwards signs vandalized today
in the Pittsburgh area. Someone had punched two large holes in each of them, and one had stickers pasted along the remaining outer edges that read "Higher Taxes".

I am going to contact the local press and media. This is just plain despicable.
