DENVER - Denver police say a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force has admitted to vandalizing cars bearing pro-President Bush bumper stickers at Denver International Airport.

Police say he's responsible for thousands of dollars in damage on at least 12 cars. Lt. Colonel Alexis Fecteau, 42, of Colorado Springs, turned himself in to Denver police Friday.

2. Well, some birdmen are a bit out of it.

The thing is, how many still sporting pro-Bush stickers are starting to feel sticker shock? Better to invite them away from the dark side, rather than to anger them and maybe push them further into the clutches of the 'Empire.'

6. Offer them an exchange sticker

Paste "Bush Cheated" over "Bush Cheney".

7. He knows the damage * is doing.

I think he is the tip of the iceberg of P.O.ed military folk.

Funny I have yet to see the results from the military vote in 04 .......
but Haliburton handled that too. :grr:

11. hee-hee, I visited LA this summer and I'm from Florida. Guess what

I noticed immediately. There's almost no bumper stickers on the LA cars. I saw one W sticker and one John Kerry sticker the entire week. In Florida you see atleast a dozen and a half W stickers a week and maybe a couple Kerry stickers.

Keep in mind that the number of cars in LA outnumber the cars in my little Florida hamlet by guzzillions. But still, no stickers. And I know why. It's the fear of ROAD RAGE!

13. Yeah, well somehow 30,000 have disappeared.

Maybe that explains it??

12. Interesting.

Hope he can get some help. And I'm secretly egging him on. No, really, he could be a better activist...

14. I have really mixed feelings on this. I hope he can channel that anger

and use it to good use.

15. that says a whole bunch, wish he had seen my car, it would have

made him feel good and not have the need to vandalize out of anger.
