ORLANDO, Fla. -- Vandals spray-painted "Obama Smokes Crack" and other hate messages on 60 city vehicles parked across the street from City Hall in downtown Orlando.
Investigators said the vandals painted the messages -- which appear to be politically motivated -- after dark Saturday night.
Local 6 showed several vehicles covered in different colors with the "Obama" messages.
A passing motorist initially spotted the damage and called police.
"I'm driving by and every car I see has been hit with spray paint," witness Mike Lowe said. "There is so much damage to them. There are messages written on them and the vandals left their business card, which is crazy."
Special business cards left near the damaged vehicles contained negative messages about Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain. However, there were positive words about Sen. Hillary Clinton, Local 6's Kimberly Houk reported.
Some of the vehicles also had opened gas tanks.
Orlando police are investigating the incident and the business cards left at the scene.

5. Nah. It's a little more simplistic than that.
There are a lot of our high-school-age people who have been totally and completely indoctrinated into an extremely far-right mindset. From what I can see, it is caused by a mixture of right-wing DJ's on the "morning zoo" types of programs, some O'Reilly(who they seem to listen to), definitely Savage, who they listen to and quote chapter and verse and use dog-whistle racism in their invective, and peer pressure that grows the mindset in a cross-pollenating fashion. You also have racist and/or skinhead groups that are quite resurgent and every kid wants to be part of a group.
For some of them, it is all they have known for the last 8 years. It has just been the way things are and they way things are supposed to be. Without any thought of question. These are some of the most intolerent, racist, violence-loving people I have ever seen. Thouroughly indoctrinated and each one trying to outdo the other. There is going to be some big problems with them. They are totally and completely incapable of recognizing any of the challenges facing this nation. They are completely wedded to a status quo that doesn't exist, except in the minds of the right-wing squawkers that fill their heads with an agenda that runs directly counter to their own best interests. They support a militaristic, violent and authoritarian government. They consider it just peachy to go to war with any country that has oil, to make it ours.
They are well worth NOT ignoring.

33. To put a finer point on it
They support a militaristic, violent and authoritarian government. They consider it just peachy to go to war with any country that has oil, to make it ours.
...so long as someone else is doing the actual bleeding, hurting and dying. Right-wing types never dirty their own hands when it comes to actual work. Never have, never will. This strikes me as another typical right-wing operation -- underhandedness under the cover of darkness. Sociopaths, liars, and worst of all, cowards.
What these little thugs fail to realize is that since the dawn of human history, types like them have been used to promote tyrants who will never ever let them have the crumbs from the table they help to set up.

Simply insanity. That is the only way I can figure it out.
One guy tries to talk sense, but is drowned out by the crazy shouting

26. Doubtful that it is right wing
Whoever did it must be a real sick individual. But what kind of right winger would leave business cards saying "legalize marajuana" and "stop building prisons"? To my best knowledge I don't think a right winger had anything to do with it if they left those messages.

32. Strange, huh?
Perhaps it was right-wingers trying to frame lefties?
All in all, whoever they were, they were a bunch of idiots: witness Obama spelled "Oboma" on one car...

42. false flag operations
just like those "eco-terrorist" groups that you never heard of before Chimpy was in office, and don't know anybody who belongs to them, regardless of how many actual left wing activists you know.
These alleged "eco-terrorists" have even been known to "torch" new subdivisions of McMansions that weren't selling after the sub prime mortgage scam collapsed. When did insurance fraud become an "environmental" cause?

59. Probably not Rove
Karl Rove? Please dude... Robert Byrd would not be in the Senate if he was a Republican and of course that would be the right thing to do.
OOOPs, someone is getting a tombstone soon...

16. Not so sure. If you visit some Hillary sites, their seething hatred is palpable.
Please note that I said, some. Head on over to hillaryclintonforum.net and tell me that folks posting there aren't capable of this outrage. Of course they are.
No shit, They hate Obama. HATE. H.A.T.E. him.

30. They aren't really Hillary supporters
they are right wing trolls trying to stir shit up. Two of the leaders were interviewed on Fox. One second, the guy says he has always voted for the Democratic ticket. Not 30 seconds later he said he didn't want the DNC to do to him what the RNC did to him in 2000 (support the "wrong" candidate). He couldn't keep the facade up for a 5 minute interview.
The ones who did this vandalism are RW trolls, too. They want democrats at each others throats.
Just keep thinking that. All those hillery voters aren't voting for McCain...really...

34. The attitudes on hillaryclintonforum.net are unbelievable.
I just spent 10 minutes reading posts over there and it is unbelievable. I had no idea how bad the situation is with some of the HRC die-hards. Worse than I could have imagined. In the interest of NOT stirring up division over here, (I'm a former HRC supporter, now an Obama supporter) I'll refrain from saying anything more.
But just permit he to shake my head here silently. Wow.

63. Yes, it HAS to be right wing lunatics that did this
There's not a Dem that would EVER do something like this, it has to be some elaborate right wing plan to frame up Hillary supporters while dividing the Dem party some more.
Or could it just simply be disgruntled Hillary supporters?
No, it has to be Repubs, they are behind everything with a devious scheme......
Some of you people really make me laugh.....
