Mike Rogers' Office Vandalized

http://www.wzzm13.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=72768

Lansing - Vandals struck U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers' Lansing offices Monday night, slopping red paint on the building, spray-painting slogans on the sidewalk and gluing the front door lock shut.

Large globs of red paint covered a sign on the front of the building displaying the congressman's name. A “Support our Troops” sign also was hit with red paint.

A poster pasted to a window facing Michigan Avenue read, “Rogers: There is blood on your hands.”

2. Vandalism is wrong.
But, from what I understand, in many areas, it's not considered vandalism if you use a water-soluble paint that washes off by itself in the rain.

Vandalism is bad. Don't do it.

But, I'm still willing to pitch-in twenty bucks toward bail money for who ever did this.

Even though they were very, very bad.

3. Yeah, But Freeping Polls Isn't.


Freep it, Folks:

http://www.azcentral.com/

Go down the page to the poll on the lower right side of the page. The question:

Do you agree with anti-war demonstrators urging Arizona senators to bring troops home from Iraq?

(For what it is worth, we had a RECORD turnout at our protests on Monday.)

4. Besides the vandalism.
.... there's the new CNN poll showing a precipitous drop in support for the war. I suspect this is a direct result of the "surge", the ongoing lie that fools no one that a few more troops and a few more months will fix this thing.

I predict that the Reps in the senate in particular are going to start feeling the heat and breaking ranks on this issue in a big way, and pretty soon at that.
