A family of Barack Obama supporters awakened this morning to find a burned 6-foot cross on the front lawn of their home in northern Warren County, police said. The charred cross was partly wrapped with a homemade congratulatory banner that declared "President Obama Victory '08" and had been stolen from the lawn the night before, police said.

Doesn’t pass the smell test for me. Maybe the residents are the perps.
I expect to hear such stories, whether true or false every day from now. They need racism as their nourished, eternal enemy.
Don’t those idiots realize that they are creating an empowered victim class every time they do that?
Wait a minute - the KKK were Dems, weren’t they?
Another fake “hate crime”, most likely
A distinct possibility.
Very astute observations from both of you, IMO. I wouldn’t have thought of it—fell right into the liberal trap.
It’s very strange that this happened in the North (New Jersey).
Predominantly black church in Springfield, MA burned on
election night...construction was being done so it may be an accident, but there are charges of racism

>>A predominantly black church under construction in Springfield was destroyed by fire early yesterday, just hours after Barack Obama’s landmark victory, triggering concerns that the building was purposely set ablaze in a possible hate crime...The church, with a construction price tag of $2.5 million, had been more than 75 percent complete, Robinson said. But nothing inside could have sparked a fire on its own, he believes. The electrical system had not been installed.
>>No one had done anything inside that could have started the fire, he said. Instead, he fears the building was targeted, with the timing of the fire too coincidental to make it random. “Somebody came in there with an agenda of their own, I believe,” Robinson said, recalling days of black churches being torched in the South.
Christ....gimme a break."Hate" groups? What,all 4 of them....with all 25 of their members?
Believe it or not, the KKK is present in NJ. I think the chances of Obama getting hurt by these scum is huge.
I really hate to hear about things like this.....I also pray for their safety....
As believable as the Ron Paulite witch who carved a “B” in her face.
The stupidity of Obama's supporters knows no bounds.
And no, no one had the right to trespass on their property and burn anything or steal any political signs.
Where do you live?
When it’s confirmed as a hoax, I’ll call it a hoax. Until then, take it seriously.
But did anyone have an M carved in their face?
It’s in a very rural section of northwestern NJ. I know, hard to believe but there are areas of New Jersey that are still very rural.
If you look at the photos in the linked story it appears the story is hardly newsworthy.
Ditto!
