Altercation At Republican Headquarters Injures 2

1 hour, 17 minutes ago Local - NewsNet5



Cleveland police were called to the Republican Party headquarters Friday after a scuffle reportedly took place there, reported NewsChannel5.


Two volunteers were reportedly injured. Ebony Garntond told police she was roughed up by volunteers with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. But ACORN said it was simply trying to deliver a letter calling on the Republican Party to stop questioning the validity of 35,000 registered Democrats.


ACORN volunteers say they were the ones under attack, and they will ask police to file charges.

ACORN...under attack...will file charges.

They're kidding. Right? They were attacked by two women who eventually needed medical treatment because the attack was upon them.

Man, the demos keep this up and it's going to be more nails in sKerry's coffin.

Isn't this the same group that is using students from the public school system to support the Kerry campaign?

I'll plead guilty for leaping to a wild a$$ assumption but at first blush is it field hands attacking folks who have left the plantation?

A scuffle? Interestingly harmless word to use to describe an assault.
