Forget the facts, just blame the left

You know what, I'm a lefty and this makes me sick. Furthermore, I don't know a single progressive liberal who would participate in or condone such an action.

FAIRFIELD - American flags, lining the lawn of the mother- and father-in-law of fallen U.S. Army Pfc. Timothy Hines Jr., were heaped in a pile early Saturday and burned under a car parked in front of the home - less than 24 hours after Hines was buried in Cincinnati's Spring Grove Cemetery.

Jim Wessel, Hines' father-in-law, said he thinks that the fire was a random act of vandalism.

Of course the right wing noise machine immediately went into overdrive and there's probably a thousand posts out there already blaming this senseless vandalism on "leftists." Maybe some of these clairvoyant bloggers could help out the local police then, since they don't seem to know who the perpetrator was.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Fairfield Police Department tip line at 896-8200.

Seems to me, it's just as likely that some crazed war-loving rightie could have committed this act. It's the right that glorifies war and excuses its atrocities. Leftie's are anti-war because we're against senseless violence - remember?
