Thread Name: BS: Democratic Party Terrorist Organization?
Subject: RE: BS: Democratic Party Terrorist Organization?
Repblican congressman Eric Cantor claims someone shot at his office. He surmised it was because he was leading opposition to healthcare reform. As it turns out, a preliminary investigation shows that a bullet was fired into the air and struck the window in a downward direction, landing on the floor about a foot from the window. The round struck with enough force to break the windowpane but did not penetrate the window blinds. There was no other damage to the room, which is used occasionally for meetings by the congressman. A spent bullet that had been randomly fired into the air happens to hit the window of a room that isn't even in his main office and Cantor uses it to create a false equivalency with the Democrats who have been targeted by anti-reform extremists. So why isn't the OP of this thread calling the Republican Party a terrorist organization.
