Reason for riot? Republicans pissed about vote fraud. Not much more needs to be said. Pretty funny article though.

The article fails to note that the "riot" was a noisy protest over the DEMOCRATS locking themselves away from the public and attempting to conduct a SECRET ballot count in violation of Floridian election laws.

[Poohbah]

Compare and contrast with the 1968 Chicago riots, where Larry Niven's first two laws were generated and subjected to a field test.

Niven's Law #1: Never throw s**t at an armed person. (The protestors were throwing sandwich bags filled with s**t at the cops.)

Niven's Law #2: Never stand NEXT to an idiot who is throwing s**t at an armed person.

The site is just another example of the pathetic far left journalist's bath house.

[flynhghr]

newly released documents show that at least a half dozen of the publicly identified rioters were paid by Bush’s recount committee. 2 years after the fact paper are released ? I smell fake and doctored papers in a blatent attempt to undermine the authority of President George W. Bush.

It is good to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

[Poohbah]

Amen! Preach it, Brother Conan!

[TLBSHOW]

I smell communist rats! They don't want any Judge that Bush brings up that is what this is about. Its about not letting the American people turn the country from communist socialist back to America! The plan is to stop the right and there will be major problems if the senate democrats are not all arrested and jailed.

Riots? Bring back the Draft? It's very transparent what the Left is leading up to: Massive civil unrest, peace marches, campus demonstrations, riots, a '60s redux.

Bump for Niven's Laws, # 1 and 2.

One would imagine that if there was a "riot," then there would be police reports detailing damage to property, and medical reports detailing injuries. In the absence of the above (and being one who watched the "riot" on CSPAN), then one can only assume that a commie-lib defines "riot" as an opposition protest that he was unable to spin.

Look at the lower right corner of the picture and observe the liquid-filled baggie.

Good eye -- that completely escaped me.

[Poohbah]

No problem.

I know someone who was a "useful idiot" protestor at Chicago. He had NO IDEA what the heck was going down until the guy next to him got the crazed grin and pulled out a baggie of s**t. He throws it, hits a cop, and takes off running.

My acquaintance got "Wipeout" played on his head by two cops with their nightsticks.

I mentioned Niven's Second Law, and he said "wished I'd heard it before the convention."

BTW, when he was arraigned, he told the judge, "I didn't throw the s**t at the cops, but I'll gladly tell you in return for dismissal of the charges against me, 'cause I want the worthless f**k to pay the piper for my head."

The judge said, "Thank you, sir! So ordered by the court. All charges dismissed with prejudice, contingent upon Mr. XXXX's cooperation with the District Attorney and Chicago Police."

When he got back to the campus, he resigned from the SDS and joined YAFF.

What is this nonsense spewing? Pea soup from "The Exsorist"?

[listenhillary]

Spewing nonsense it is. But it is funny. I'll never forget how shocked the gorebots were that the Republicans would get so p*ssed off that they would beat on the doors to the closed ballot tampering room.

Plus the "Get out of Cheney's house!"

I can just imagine them staring at their TV's with their mouths hanging open.

Looks like the protestor in the photo is 'bout to get a cigar burn.

Ooops... did that hurt... you freakin' hippy.

"The article fails to note that the "riot" was a noisy protest over the DEMOCRATS locking themselves away from the public and attempting to conduct a SECRET ballot count in violation of Floridian election laws."

Absolutely right. Who knows how many votes the Democrats would have stolen in the planned closed door session had these people not "rioted". These "rioters" prevented vote fraud, and they should be lauded for taking an action which in my opinion is on par with the Boston Tea Party.

[yooper]

Great picture! Can you dig the stogie hanging out of the cop's mouth. It reminds me of a true incident which occurred during the Viet Nam war. It seems there was a peace rally taking place outside the White House, and being a peace rally there was a guy holding a lit candle. A man with an unlit cigar in his mouth emerged from the White House gate and walked over to the man holding the candle, and suddenly grabbed the candle man's arm and held it firmly immobile. While continuing to hold the man's arm, he then used the candle to light his cigar. He then let go of the arm and looked into the candle man's eyes and said, "There. Now you've been useful."

I don't know who the Candle Man was, but the Cigar Man was G. Gordon Liddy.

And now you know the rest of the story.
