Seems like Betty McCollum is the only one who was spared
the graffiti on her home and who lives in the Metro area.

Coleman, Klobuchar, Bachmann, Ellison, Ramstad and Kline got it.

1. So...did Betty say where she was?
I think someone just jumped to the top of the suspect list.

2. They think McCollum was spared because she lives in a condo

and the others are in single family homes (or maybe townhomes as it looks like garage doors were hit).

Personally, I suspect Bachmann what with the graffiti citing a Bible verse and she just did her own home as a cover.

I edited this because I looked up "Psalm 2" which is part of the graffiti on most, if not all, the homes hit:


Psalm 2 (King James Version)

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.

Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.


Oh yeah, it was Bachmann. :evilgrin:

4. Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling?
No thanks. The God I believe in doesnt demand worship like a psycho killer.

6. I think in the days when the King James version was written "fear"
also meant respect and did not necessarily translate to being fearful as we use the word today. Just as the KJ version says "Suffer the little children to come onto me." In today's English it would mean "Be patient with the little children who come to me..." and not have anything to do with suffering (unless we have to listen to some lunatic like Bachmann ranting about her interpretation of the Bible).

7. So, since this happened the victimized poltician we've seen the most of
is Normie both on local TV and in the Strib. And every bit of coverage has stressed how Laurie and their daughter were the only ones in the house when this happened (no mention of why the weasel wasn't home to protect his women-folk). I've begun to think I was premature "accusing" Bachmann - perhaps Normie did it so he could get some air time about Laurie being home? :evilgrin:

Note any lurking MDE trolls: JOKING - I don't really think either Norman or Michelle did this and whoever did is too low for words.
