Another Republican campaign office, this time in Oregon, has been vandalized. Maybe this is taken out of context, but the Democrat's repsonse sure doesn't sound like he's really sorry.

Patrick Donaldson, volunteer chairman of the Bush campaign in Multnomah County, said the broken windows, discovered early in the morning, follow weeks of harassment, including threatening phone calls and people walking into the office and ripping up signs.

"Any Bush supporter will tell you the various levels of disdain from co-workers and complete strangers when they assert they're Republican, that level of disdain was nowhere near this in 2000," Donaldson said. "I'm not saying we are without fault, but these efforts to try to intimidate us and frighten us . . . it really upsets me."

Oregon Democratic Party officials said they do not condone smashing the windows of Republican offices and discourage such acts.

"But the fact is that the reason the Republican Party is feigning righteous indignation is because they don't want to talk about the 30,000 jobs lost and the 180,000 Oregonians who have lost health care," said Neel Pender, executive director of the state Democratic Party.


Huh?
