I understand that Republicans carry a lot of hatred, inflamed as they are by disinformation from their candidates for office, and by even more extreme lies from the Republican Ministry of Propaganda, aka Fox.  However filled with hate they may be, there is absolutely no excuse for them to express it in a hate crime against a defenseless animal, just because the pet\u2019s owner is the Campaign Manager for a Democrat.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"24liberalcat\"The campaign manager of Arkansas Democratic congressional candidate Ken Aden arrived home last night to find his child\u2019s pet cat murdered on the front porch with the word \u201cLIBERAL\u201d scrawled across its lifeless body.<\/font><\/p>\n

Aden\u2019s campaign manager, Jake Burris, lives in central Arkansas with his four kids. Blue Arkansas<\/a><\/font> has more on the scene at Burris\u2019s home (emphases are ours):<\/font><\/p>\n

Last night, Jake and his four kids had come back to their Russellville home. As they were getting out of the car, one of his children discovered their family cat dead on the front porch. One side of the animal\u2019s head had been bashed in and an eyeball was hanging out of its socket.<\/strong><\/span> But there was something even more horrifying to be found on the corpse. Written across the animal\u2019s fur in black marker was the word \u201cLIBERAL\u201c.<\/font><\/p>\n

…<\/font><\/p>\n

…Pope County, where Burris lives, is a highly-conservative area of Arkansas\u2026 [emphasis original<\/em><\/span>]<\/font><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Of course the Republican candidate running against Aden disavowed and denounced the act, to save face, but the tenor of Republican hatred building up ever since Obama and Biden defeated McConJob and Mooseolini fueled this act.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
