    • drum_bum, on 11/30/2007, -13/+50What the ***** is wrong with you? Sure you might not agree with some of her politics, I certainly don't. But you don't wish harm upon her, let alone some volunteer staffers.
      • sovereign3, on 11/30/2007, -5/+21This, from the same community that nearly celebrated when Dick Cheney had to seek treatment for an irregular heartbeat.

        • wendelgee2, on 11/30/2007, -0/+6He's a despicable criminal who is ruining our country; campaign voluteers are not.
      • NonServium, on 11/30/2007, -16/+3Why not, she supports harming innocents and has used her power to help cause it.
        • thotpoizn, on 11/30/2007, -2/+10Hmmm, that certainly justifies terrifying and/or killing all those people working at her campaign office, eh? You do realize she isn't even in the same State right now, right?
        • NonServium, on 11/30/2007, -10/+2Cooperating with the fascists is not acceptable.

  • AnarchyReigns, on 11/30/2007, -15/+72Send in the police with their tasers!!
    • dondara, on 11/30/2007, -9/+81Didn't you read the "armed" part? The cops are cowering behind their cruisers. They only tase old women and kids.
      • andshewas, on 11/30/2007, -1/+18Don't forget pregnant women, also.

        • fotbr, on 11/30/2007, -0/+5so is tasering a pregnant woman a two-for-one special since they get the old lady AND her kid at the same time?

  • toastgodsupreme, on 11/30/2007, -15/+62Is it bad that I'm not moved by this? Like, I just shrug and go, "Yeah, that sounds about right."

    I dunno, my bet is the bomb is fake. I mean, there are a lot more useful places a bomber could go other than a campaign office. This guy is merely cooking up press for Hillary now.
    • lordtyros, on 11/30/2007, -17/+15What is wrong with you people?
      • NonServium, on 11/30/2007, -20/+6What is wrong? Our government attacked us on 9-11, and continuously in many ways since then, and Hillary has supported and helped cover up all of it. That's what is wrong.
        • TheG2, on 11/30/2007, -8/+20Oh seriously, just shut the ***** up.
        • NonServium, on 11/30/2007, -7/+2You'd have said the same to Thomas Paine, loyalist *****.
        • thotpoizn, on 11/30/2007, -5/+2Look, you obviously have a lot in common with this nutjob, I bet you two would have a lot to talk about. You could probably even get to the bottom of whatever is bothering him, maybe while comparing conspiracy theories. If I pay your air fare, would you go and talk to him please?
      • toastgodsupreme, on 11/30/2007, -0/+3What? It was bound to happen. With the way our society is going. I honestly have more support for the people who are brave enough to do stuff like this, than I do for our govt. At least they're taking action. I'm still waiting for a coordinated terrorist attack on the US. I won't be surprised when it happens.
    • SIRBERUS, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2It'll be interesting to see how this is later reported on...

      -"Hillary negotiates with terrorist."
      -"We are fighting them there so we don't have to... oh, this just in..."
      -"Terrorists fear Hillary so much, they have to attack her"

      I hope it all ends well and the douche with the bomb is alive and talkative in the end so no one gets to play the assume game.
    • xenlab, on 12/01/2007, -0/+1Don't any of you read the article anymore? Or do you just comment out of your ass based on the summary?
  • alexbox, on 11/30/2007, -16/+100I hope that this situation ends peacefully very soon.
    • thcobbs, on 11/30/2007, -5/+26Definitely, those volunteers don't deserve this...

      even if they did volunteer for Hillary :)
      • ricksite, on 11/30/2007, -2/+9I have worked in many campaign offices and they tend to be shielded from all of the stuff you see in the media (Name calling, negative ads, etc...). They are a pretty positive environment filled with a bunch of hard working volunteers stuffing envelopes and making phone calls.
    • kubedawg, on 11/30/2007, -0/+1I agree, I mean, most people I know despise Hillary, but this is clearly not political, this is more of a deranged man who's been drinking for the past few days, and according to his step son, is only looking for attention. I seriously hope the step son does know the correct info about his dad, and noone gets hurt.
    • r2debo, on 12/01/2007, -1/+1Incredible. A bomb threat from a man who "couldn't get health care". Is it crazy to think Hillary planned this? Sadly, I say no.
  • dizilbdog, on 11/30/2007, -7/+14Uh Oh and So it Begins!!!!
    • insomniacal, on 11/30/2007, -0/+4... only the next step in the ever-plummeting character of American politics: lies, mudslinging, swiftboating, fearmongering, and now death threats. Our discourse is reaping what it deserves.

    • CarlH2007, on 11/30/2007, -1/+8It could happen. Phone perhaps?
      • NachoBusiness, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2that's about the last thing a hostage negotiator would allow... the trick is to give them nothing but make them think they're in charge.
    • NonServium, on 11/30/2007, -6/+8Will Hillary let those people die just to avoid potentially answering some real questions?
      • Rahodeb, on 11/30/2007, -2/+15Bah, they guy with the bomb was a plant by the campaign to ask pre-assigned questions. He's going to get her on the phone and ask her about her plan to provide healthcare to poor children.
        • bloominoctober, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2To which she'll reply "I don't have a plan ... at least not one that will work."

    • ufia, on 11/30/2007, -18/+8Who else?
    • NickSpinner, on 11/30/2007, -10/+23theyre gonna blame it on a ron paul supporter for sure
    • MindStalker, on 11/30/2007, -7/+33Na, the real big Ron Paul supporters would never be caught dead without a Ron Paul T-Shirt on, and this guy is definitely going to be dead soon.

      Also Ron Paul supporters don't hate Hillary at all. We kinda like her, IF we can get the Republican Nomination she would be easy to beat.
      • Frostman3D, on 11/30/2007, -6/+6Speak for yourself. I hate Hillary and hope this has a negative effect on her campaign.
        • fotbr, on 11/30/2007, -0/+7it wont
          • LeeSoong, on 12/01/2007, -0/+1But what about wearing your Ron Paul Thong?

            A Real Ron Paul 'supporter'! Sound off like you got a pair!
      • F0RMLESSNESS, on 11/30/2007, -1/+0perhaps he planned for that ahead of time and is wearing his ron paul t-shirt?
      • swiftekho, on 12/01/2007, -0/+1Actually... Think how much easier it would be if a John Edwards some how got the Democratic nod... America still has family values at its core and when we realize that someone like John Edwards (the government has more control over their lives than he does) is running, Ron Paul will run away after a single one on one debate
      • BabyWookie, on 12/01/2007, -2/+1You are delusional. Any dem candidate would defeat Ron Paul in a land-slide. You people are the fringe. Very few Americans share your twisted, hateful right-wing Libertarian views. Why can't you get it through your head?
    • rhabd0mancer, on 11/30/2007, -22/+7It might be Ron Paul himself.
    • Shorties, on 11/30/2007, -6/+1Haha I had the same thought.
    • dawgma, on 11/30/2007, -7/+23Conspiracy Theory Of The Day:

      GOP pays desperate man to wear a fake bomb, take hostages in a democratic campaign office, identify himself as a Ron Paul supporter and proclaim "The Revolution is NOW!".

      GOP has everything they need to launch a smear campaign to discredit Ron Paul. Giuliani goes on to win the Presidency by evoking fears of homeland terrorism.

      Meanwhile, man is arrested, put up on charges for a crime that could put him in jail for a dozen years or more. Somehow the man retains some unusually high powered lawyers for his defense and he gets only 3 years. Conveniently, when he is released he finds his previously pathetic bank account looks more like a plush retirement nest egg.
      • answin, on 11/30/2007, -3/+0i wouldn't doubt it...
      • malakite33, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2Honestly, I feel terrible but that was the first thing I thought of. If that happens then it would be so ghostly transparent I think it would hurt Hillary more than help her
        • LeeSoong, on 12/01/2007, -0/+1Well, once the feds shut down Liberty Dollar and took all the Ron Paul gold, silver, and copper - what should the people think?

          You're allowed to buy foreign gold - but American gold is illegal?

          If anything the USA should be promoting the sale and trade of gold to strenghen the economy and fight inflation.
      • seandaly, on 11/30/2007, -2/+3You thought that because you know that there are some RP supporters are actually crazy enough to do it!
        It's fun to watch the RP spin machine's wheels turn even before just to be sure!
        • dawgma, on 11/30/2007, -2/+1Of course there are RP supporters crazy enough to do that. There are also Giuliani supporters who are murderers and Clinton supporters who are rapists! Any candidate could have supporters crazy enough to do something this drastic.

          But what is important to note is that if it turns out the hostage taker is a supporter of Hillary or Giuliani, those candidates can easily distance themselves from this event. EVERYONE is already aware of Hillary and Giuliani. We are familiar with who they are and, despite their conflicting views, we do not think of them as radicals.

          However, RP's image is considerably more fragile. There are still a lot of people who don't know about him. If people's first exposure to the Ron Paul campaign is brought to them by this crazy hostage taker, then it will cast a negative light on RPs campaign. Their first thoughts about RP will be related to radicalism and terrorism.

          THAT is why you would see more concern from RP supporters than any of the other top tier candidate supporters. You dig?
    • davidg11, on 11/30/2007, -2/+12I fear seeing a picture of the guy with a Ron Paul REVOLUTION shirt. Funny, today is a day of a Ron Paul "MONEY BOMB". I hope everyone got the right memo. Today isn't "REAL BOMB" day.

    • F0RMLESSNESS, on 11/30/2007, -10/+2I'll bet it's a Ron Paul supporter

      by the way jerkoffs. There are a lot of things worth praying for in this world..... peace, equality, happiness, or for those hostages to be released safely. But praying that a man threatening to kill people is not a supporter of someone you support, now that is a selfish and stupid prayer. But I know why you worry, clearly I can see a Ron Paul supporter being behind this.
      • tubeblender, on 11/30/2007, -2/+0Hate to break it to you but god doesn't exist, and your religion is a fairy tale told mostly by boy molesting assholes. TFSM told me so from a pot of boiling pasta.
    • lasenorita, on 11/30/2007, -1/+7Why would it be a Ron Paul supporter? To deprive another person their liberties and rights would be anti-Ron Paul and is totally against the message of peace and non-intervention.

    • flahavin, on 11/30/2007, -9/+4yeah.. the Clinton News Network was actually operating the in the basement of this office, so they're playing repeats of republican bashing until further notice.
    • insllvn, on 11/30/2007, -4/+3CNN know how it will end, this guy is a plant. Clinton will decide she "has no choice" but to talk to him, and then will proceed to convince him to amend his ways. There will be a Lifetime movie.

    • bloominoctober, on 11/30/2007, -2/+1RTA ... they were all evacuated. Since CNN is run by Clinton, there's no one there to cover the story.

      • dawgma, on 11/30/2007, -0/+1I responded to you in a different story related to this event, but it's worth repeating:

        Of course there are RP supporters crazy enough to do that. There are also Giuliani supporters who are murderers and Clinton supporters who are rapists! Any candidate could have supporters crazy enough to do something this drastic.

    • objectcode, on 11/30/2007, -0/+10yeah, im glad all that wire tapping is paying off
  • JerodSlay, on 11/30/2007, -7/+24People's lives are at on the line here and all you can think about is "I hope it doesn't hurt Ron Paul?" It can wait, my friends, it can wait. Don't be guilty of politicizing a potential tragic situation. Leave that for the others to do. Be better than that.
    • siszam, on 11/30/2007, -8/+1Our soldiers lives are on the line every day and no one cares of stops it. Don't act like this is important at all in the grand scheme of things. Hillary walked out on a group of anti war people and parents who were begging for the lives of the soldiers. Hillary wasn't. "better than that".

  • mongoloidplease, on 11/30/2007, -4/+5This scenario was always how I imagined Taxi Driver would end.
  • cheese06, on 11/30/2007, -10/+11this is all just a ploy by the clinton news network so that she can turn into a hostage negotiator and become a hero!
    • mongoloidplease, on 11/30/2007, -3/+2more like an hero amirite?
      • soot, on 11/30/2007, -2/+1No, that will probably be the hostage taker.
    • laserdog, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2Honestly, the problem with politicians is they are stuck in the rut of committee blandness and a desire to micromanage things.

      Giving a single stooge the leverage to bring down their campaign isn't something they would ever agree to.

      Hi, I'm basic risk vs reward analysis. Feel free to use me if you like.

  • dylr91, on 11/30/2007, -8/+5Hmm... Here is a great opportunity for Hillary to call the man taking hostages, calm him down and save the day. Then the American citizens can vote for a real hero who saved the innocent people. It would not surprise me at all for Hillary's campaign team to arrange this for the good publicity... or they can blame it on a Ron Paul supporter and make it look like the average Paul supporters are lunatics.

    Dupe. :-) But I guess since it's Fox News, it's not actually news.
    • bittwist, on 11/30/2007, -4/+1That one looks like it was submitted around two minutes later. Also yea, lol, faux news.
      • OverkillTASF, on 11/30/2007, -1/+4No, it was submitted 2 minutes earlier!
        • bittwist, on 11/30/2007, -1/+3Ugh, your right. dugg up.
          I stand by my "lol faux news" though :D
  • gregm11, on 11/30/2007, -6/+4The authorities will shoot the guy dead and it's operatives in the media will tell whatever story best suits their interests.

      • laserdog, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2I don't support ron paul or his beliefs, but I can say for a fact, that while his supporters can be, ahem, over-enthusiastic, I have never heard of them being misogynistic.

        I can't say the same of the John "What do to about the Bitch" McCain, Romney "No Women in Religion" or Guiliani "Who I'm too lazy too look up relevant comments on Clinton about".
        • tubeblender, on 11/30/2007, -0/+0"No women in religion" Isn't that a statement that can also blanket all priests as well?

  • locux, on 11/30/2007, -11/+21BREAKING: hostage situation staged by the Hillary campaign just like her questions during her interviews. [/sarcasm but probable truth]
    • sethaldridge, on 11/30/2007, -0/+3I think she's the devil, but it a ***** situation no matter who you are, however, I could see her campaign trying to use this as her 9/11...show what she does in a time of crisis, situation.
    • cheese06, on 11/30/2007, -0/+1and since the man in question has a history of mental problems, she is going to politicize this event and talk about how there needs to be universal healthcare! just watch the next few stump speeches after this event, she will definitely capitalize on it.

      • MikeFallopian, on 11/30/2007, -1/+0I disagree with almost all of Hillary's policies... but if she personally tases the ***** out of this guy I swear I'll vote for her. Twice.
        • republicker, on 11/30/2007, -0/+2Your votes gonna get counted twice anyhow.
  • cambob76, on 11/30/2007, -3/+6How can they call them hostages until they come out and say,"Gee, I wanted to leave, but the crazy guy with the bomb wouldn't let me."? Maybe they're just hanging out, trying to convince the bomber to vote for Hillary.
  • greendalek, on 11/30/2007, -2/+4Looks like both hostages are out --but of interest is the fact that the second released hostage, a woman, was immediately bundled into a police cruiser and whisked away. Is that standard police procedure? You'd think the woman would just want to go the heck HOME after an ordeal like that.
    • soot, on 11/30/2007, -0/+4No, she probably has valuable information to share with them about the people in the building or what the guy is armed with.

        Want to Work for the Clintons?

        Whitewater partner died of an apparent heart

        2- Mary Mahoney - A former White House intern
        was murdered July 1997 at a Starbucks Coffee

        investigation reported that there was a hole in the

        top of Brown's skull resembling a gunshot wound.
        Also confirmed by six nurses. At the time of his
        death Brown was being investigated, and spoke
        publicly of his willingness to cut a deal with
        prosecutors. The rest of the people on the plane
        also died. A few days later the air Traffic
        controller committed suicide.
