Bush Campaign Offices Burglarized

DesScorp writes "The Washington State offices of the Bush campaign were burglarized, and computers with sensitive campaign data were stolen. The computers belonged the executive director and officer in charge of the 'get out the vote' campaign; one was set to be delivered to another office within the state. The staff says that secret strategy information and voting data are on the computers, and ironically, they're comparing it to Watergate. The staff blames Democratic Party activists intent on stealing the information. Of course, they deny this."

    It is just as plausible to say that Watergate was a Democrat plot to make Nixon look bad.

    Everyone here needs to read my journal

    I'd vote for the guy who got three purple hearts, a silver star, and a bronze star, anytime, over the guy who took the rich boy coward's way out and won't admit there was anything even remotely improper about it.
    I do *not* want to compare anyone to Hitler, but I'd like to point out that if Hitler was an American soldier in WW1, he would have gotten at least two purple heart for his injuries on the front. He was a dedicated soldier and a war hero. This didn't stop him from creating a dictatorship in a democratic country, go to war to most of the world, and orchestrating unspeakable atrocities to jews, gypsys and a lot of other innocent peoples.
