A Third-Rate Burglary?: Bush's Washington-State Campaign Offices Ransacked

Via Jim's tip, over at Powerline:

State Republican Party Chairman Chris Vance called it a "Watergate-style break in" and said he suspects Democrats are behind it.

"If you're just some burglar looking for computers to sell to buy drugs you take every laptop in the office maybe," he said. "But they knew exactly whose computers to get. They got the executive director's computer and the get-out-the-vote director's computer."

If any of you haven't registered to vote yet, please think about what these guys are up to, and consider taking the five minutes to sign up to vote.

I'd be shocked and outraged if I hadn't already grown used to this kind of bullshit. Now I'm just sad and tired and disgusted.

Every person on that stolen volunteer list is in danger of a violent attack.

Posted by: Jake on October 1, 2004 07:55 PM

I hadn't even thought of that.

Worse yet - they're in danger of being told not to come to the polls on Election Day because their registration is invalid... and equally contemptible ideas.

I swear, at this point I'm more worried of mass voter fraud than I am of Bush losing. It'll tear this country apart in a way that'd make Florida2000 look like a neighbors' fence squabble.

Guys, whats the deal with Polipundit? I clicked on their link and it says their account is suspended. I hope no trouble is afoot....

TBR: Unfortunately, Florida 2000 was just a stupid squabble turned into "evil republicans steal elections". Voter fraud is going to be a problem, as always. I hear Kerry gets 90% of the dead vote.

They have a bad case of popularity. They are busy moving their blog to a dedicated server and will be back shortly.

Black Republican. I am with you.

Just as Robert Kennedy was the first Attorney General to standup to the Mafia, we need an Attorney General that will put an end to rampant voter fraud.

I suggest that the police enquire as to where Kerry's brother is?

Seems to be a running theme

Hey, lets get Dan Rather on the job, he can re-live watergate before he stars in his very own version.

Sounds like a dirty trick, especially given the string of burglaries that seem to have followed Kerry throughout his career.

But, whoever's in charge of the computers at the WA Republican Party should have encrypted everything---just in case. In fact, they may have. But probably not.

Yacht or Nyacht?
With a combined score of 49.5 on Yacht or Nyacht, I'd say this one is a "Nyacht." No Hoe Snow snap. Not bouncy. Pretty dreary. No smooth groove. You won't be able to snort cocaine out of the cleavage of a "Naval Mabel" or "Poopdeck Patty." Or even if you do, it will be half-hearted at best.
From Instapundit, a Free Beacon Fact Check:
Joe Biden, nominal president of the United States, sat down with the ladies of The View for an interview on Wednesday. "It's like having one of the Beatles at the table," co-host Sarah Haines said as the audience roared and her colleagues cackled.
Haines wasn't entirely wrong, according to a Washington Free Beacon fact check. Biden doesn't have much in common with the Beatles, but they're both half-dead, half-octogenarian relics who haven't accomplished anything of substance since the 1970s. We rate Haines's claim "mostly true."

I guess that's true if you're talking about the Beatles. But individual members of the Beatles did some decent stuff in the 80s.

To state the supremely obvious, eliminating the filibuster to codify Roe v Wade also enables a future Congress to ban all abortion nationwide.

What an absolutely terrible, shortsighted idea.

This is a fantastic (casual) driving song, when you're actually driving a little below the speed limit because you don't really have anywhere to be.
Going forward, if we have any arguments about what is or what is not Yacht Rock, we can just consult the Yacht or Nyacht? website, which has ranked hundreds of songs according to their Yacht Quotient (YQ). I can see this website stopping arguments, fistfights, and formal duels.
In solidarity with the MSM, Rich Lowry and National Review vilified the Covington Kids as racist agitators back in 2019. Now, it’s Rich Lowry being canceled for an accidental slip of the tongue that sounded like a forbidden word. There’s a lesson here for the Polite Right, but they won’t learn it. [Buck]

I'm not sure this is even Yacht Rock. This might just be very soft rock. I can't see myself sniffing cocaine from a Boat Hoe's cleavage to this song, which is the primary criterion of Yacht Rock.
But I think this song more crosses from the shallows of soft rock to the cresting majesty of Yacht Rock. This is definitely bouncy enough for Hoe Snow. Very smooth, a little folky, a little jazzy. It's got that Hoe Snow snap.

FAA fines SpaceX $633K for acting without its permission "These fines therefore are simply because FAA management has hurt feelings because SpaceX wouldn't wait for it to twiddle its thumbs for a few more weeks. The fines also suggest that FAA management is either being pressured to hinder SpaceX's commercial operations by higher ups in the White House, or that management itself is trying to exert more power over the company, for apparently very petty reasons."

1) Individuals, on camera and audio, stating what they saw is "unconfirmed" with "no specific reports"

2) anonymous bomb threats with no arrests or suspects is "Republicans threatening Haitians."

Well fuck them, I called the hospital and they said there's no confirmed reports of specific individual Republicans making any bomb threats.
