Republicans afraid of a drum-banger. Was Parlock in PA yesterday?

I live in this County. Read the whole article to see how local and state Republicans react to our god-given right to protest. It's kinda comical, actually.

He thinks they doth protest too much

By Dan Majors, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

The race for president took a raucous turn yesterday when an overzealous supporter of President Bush took on a group of chanting boosters for John Kerry on Greensburg's busy Main Street.

At lunchtime, 13 Kerry supporters gathered in front of the Westmoreland County Courthouse to bang a drum, chant slogans and exchange banter, thumbs-ups and other hand signals with passers-by.

>snip<
Bush-Cheney campaign headquarters is directly across Main Street. The people inside closed the windows and lowered the blinds.

A little after noon, a man who looked to be in his 50s ran out the front door of the Republican office building, crossed the four-lane Main Street, and grabbed Lainie Maloy's big blue Kerry banner.

>snip<
Upstairs at the Bush headquarters, Latrobe Republican Judy DiJoseph peered down at the chanting group. She'd come by for a yard sign, she said, and stumbled onto the drama.

"That's Satan out there," she said, "trying to bring down our campaign. It's good versus evil. Those are desperate people."

1. Look at what I just posted
About Repugs whining about defaced signs in Canonsburg:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x994006

Related in some way? At the end of the Channel 4 story about the (GASP!) defaced signs, they quickly mentioned this incident.

5. If Satan is switching his support to Kerry from Bush-Chenney
then it's all over for B-C.
