Swastika Painted On Dem Rep's Door After Testy Town Hall

[Political Tiger]

Rep. David Scott (D-Ga.) was introduced on a Fox News appearance with the announcement that his office had been vandalized. A giant swastika was painted on the door.

"It is very unfortunate," Scott said. "I feel very bad about it."

Fox News said the incident has been reported to Capitol Hill police and that an investigation will be launched immediately.

At a turbulent town hall meeting last week, Rep. Scott accused disruptive attendees of being outsiders who "hijacked" the event. Asked about his response on air, Scott explained, "I was standing up for the people of Douglasville. They were disrespected."

1. So if the Dems are the Nazis ...

how come it's the RWers who keep painting swastikas?

2. LOL. Exactly. They bring this Nazi crap to the table because obviously

they do not know the difference between fascism, communism, socialism and capitalism. And like it or not we have not been a pure system for a very, very long time now. If we were then big corps would not get govt. help, there would not be farm subsidies, etc. Utter stupidity.

7. WWHD?

What would Hitler do? I think he'd approve of the poor - especially those who weren't of the "Aryan race"- dying off from lack of health care.

So who's the Nazis, Freeps?

9. this office in smyrna, ga., next door to marietta, infamous for being a former klan

stronghold and for the 1920 lynching of leo frank.

"A website has allegedly named some of the Mariettans involved in the lynching of Leo Frank, and what an interesting list it is. Famous names like Clay, Morris, Sessions, Dobbs, Frey, Manning and more are accused of being the culprits.

The site says the alleged lynchers include a former speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives and president of the Georgia State Senate, and other members of the Georgia House of Representatives and Senate, mayors of Marietta, as well as judges, prosecutors, and other members of the local judiciary.

In 1913 Leo Frank, a northern Jew who had moved to Atlanta to manage a pencil factory, was accused of murdering a 14-year old girl named Mary Phagan of Marietta who was employed at the factory."
