BREAKING: Rep. Carnahan Admits Staffer Was Suspect Behind Office Firebombing!
by Jim HoftThe suspect who firebombed Rep. Russ Carnahan’s office last week was reportedly a disgruntled progressive activist employed by democrats. An unnamed source familiar with the case released the information. Suspect Chris Powers reportedly was upset because he did not get paid so he firebombed the Carnahan finance offices at 2 in the morning.
What a complete shock.
Dem operative and firebomber Chris Powers is the sweaty one pictured here on right during a rally for nationalized health care. Powers is was a paid canvasser for Russ Carnahan.
The RFT reported:
Congressman Russ Carnahan held a press conference confirming that the person St. Louis police arrested and released for last week’s firebombing of his campaign headquarters did in fact work for his re-election campaign.
Carnahan did not say the man’s name but did confirm that the name Chris Powers made public this morning on a right-wing blog was accurate. According to Carnahan, the suspect volunteered for his campaign in July and was hired this month as a political canvasser — a job he kept for five days before being let go for “failing to do his job.”
This afternoon Daily RFT left a message with a Chris Powers listed in the St. Louis phone book but has heard no response.
Russ forgot to mention that this radical staffer also also has a history of harassing tea party patriots.

So, when will the apologies be forthcoming?
Ooops.
Not only was it one of Russ Carnahan's own people, but the muslim slashed today with a knife in NYC was done in by a 21 y.o. liberal volunteer of "Intersections International" which is and interfaith organization for social justice. The media immediately tried to blame a T-Partier or conservative.
And then there was Maurice Schwenkler, a gay transgendered SEIU member, who got caught red-handed bashing in the windows of the Democratic headquarters in Denver, CO and admitted it was done to blame the Tea Party.
Meantime, I don't think Sarah Palin ever got an apology from the marxist thugs for burning her church down 5 weeks after the presidential election. Propagandavision won't report it, but we know and we can't wait until November 2nd.

Sooooooooo.
The fire-bomber wasn't a card carrying member of the NRA, the Tea Party, or any of the other "subversive" organizations that the MSM normally point a finger at.
No wonder why they have been strangely silent on the matter. I thank the author here, and Big Government, for reporting news.
Was Chris Powers vetted by Carnahan's campaign office before he was hired,
or did he fit the template of the agitators Carnahans people wanted on staff,
never imagining he who firebombs others, will fire-bomb ye.
Wouldn't surprise me to find there is a whole crop of these type of folks who work
the Democrat campaigns regularly.
He looks like a dork to me, but then I've lived a sheltered life, I've never known a Dem fire-bomber
.
Dont worry anytime now we will hear that its Bush and the republicants fault! They made him do it…
An unhappy slave.
If it was a Conservative the leftwing media propagandists would be howling from the tops of every minaret. Since it's one of their own it's a non-story.
FOX News: the only reputable name in cable/tv news.
Apparently this feller was on a one man stealth jihad against Carnahan.
Gotta love those disgruntled Progressives!
At least he didn't pull a Richard Pryor and set himself on fire. That would have been poetic!
wait until the story has gone away, then make your mea culpas…
Pretty standard fare, here. Remember, Mel Carnahan got elected as a DEAD man. Only in America. Only in the Democrat Party. His widow, Jean served his term, and his useless bum son Russ is now carrying the water for Missouri Progressives.
You might remember ol' Russ from his tea party/town hall meetings last summer.
Oh, and that nasty SEIU business with the beating of one Kenneth Gladney. THAT Russ Carnahan…
Never.
This just goes to show you that when a single, solitary liberal plant (or garden variety racist) shows up at a Tea Party Rally with a swastika painted on his forehead and some incredibly disgusting slogan painted, the entire Obamamedia is a-twitter for weeks on end about how this is “evidence” that the entire Tea Party Movement are “dangerous extremists”.
Of course they all, including Media Matters, funded heavily by a known and proven WWII Nazi collaborator, George Soros, helpfully edit out the inevitable ass-kicking that said racist clown gets by everybody else at the rally since it doesn’t fit the narrative.
On the other hand, when over 15,900 murderous terrorist attacks are committed in the name of pisslam and barely a murmur of disapproval is heard from the 1,000,000,000+ adherents of said “faith”, all of us are endlessly lectured how the actions of a “few” cannot, must not indict the beliefs of the many and that to even think about drawing a connection is “racist” and “unAmerican”.
That said, I'm very surprised Russ Carnahan allowed this tidbit of "truth" leak to the media. Don't count on none of the alphabets to pass the word….
How apropos!….Like Michael Savage says, Liberalism is a mental disorder…..They
completely crack-up and attack each other…..
Progressive
Democrat
Activist
Firebomb
I can definitely see the pattern here. From what you hear from the idiots on ABC, CBS, NBC these are supposed to be Christians blowing things up.
The progs are their own worst enemies, but they cast the blame onto conservatives to deflect and to cover their own failures. Surprised they haven't blamed Bush for the fire bombing.
Conservatives don't burn, break windows, slash people or beat people because they are mature.
Every report I have heard on radio all day has mentioned hate crime and tied the cabbie/knife attack
to the strife over the GZ mosque, even admitting there was no proof of any connection. Why men-
tion the GZ mosque at all if there is no proof of a connection?
Because they WANT it to be SO with all their souls, and if someone is half listening they might pick
up the incorrect message these folks wish to spread.
I want to know how bad the cab driver was hurt. Could this incident be a little one act play designed to
get the GZ mosque protesters off their game?
.
In a dark room, lighting up a Bic and lifting it up and down… Richard Pryor running down the sidewalk.
But we will shoot an intruder.
Aha! Another successful infiltration of a liberal organization by the TEA party movement! (Don't believe me? That's what the MSM will be saying tomorrow. I should know….).
Remember, liberalism means peace. Just like islam.
Maybe even longer than that.
I did not hear word ONE all day at work from the radio division of the MBM…("Make Believe Media".)..
Let play pretend!!! …If we ignore it, well, it just didn't happen…
Just wait until all them women Dem's realize the Republicans progressively pay their female employees more.

In a heartbeat, it's the mature thing to do. Recognize a real threat and take action.
THIS IS GETTING GOOD…………
DEMocRATS ARE EATING THEIR OWN………..
YEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA……………………
Now, MSM, who were the violent ones, again?
Eveyone copy this story then go to http://www.cbsnews.com http://www.abcnews.com http://www.msnbc.com and look on bottom of page for contact us and leave this story on there so they'll know it's not a secret. Go to http://www.cnn.com look for Ticker and go to Ticker page click on any story then look in right hand corner and you'll see send news tip or feedback. Come on folks I do it all the time but we need to show them by the number of people.
Nice reporting job!
If they'd all eat their own, that would save us the work. They'll cover this over, unless we do what BrendaC say. Great idea.
NOT A SINGLE TROLL………..
IT'S PRETTY SILENT IN PROGRESSIVE LAND TONIGHT.
I am looking forward to more attacks from within the progressive party. Sorry, but thats the way I feel. If they are eating their own, goodie goodie. Popcorn anyone?
Then the muslim who killed the solider in Little Rock…

Dam .. we almost had a Shirley Sherrod moment !!! Ya know Keith Overbite was drooling to report on this ….
I hope you do not plan on holding your breath.
Its obvious the guy wasn't part of the tea party or NRA. Someone from the tea party or NRA would have gotten the job done and burned the whole place down instead of scorching a table top. People who work get the job done.
Now collecting unemployment for at least 90weeks, maybe he should call the USDA I hear they are hiring after firing.
Hey there! I just noticed you changed your avatar. Must not be afraid of those Prog Clowns any more?
The new one is awesome wicked!
Bwahahahahahahaha
damn straight!
They always look like dorks. Impotent rage filled dorks. Like Bill Ayers.
Conservatives don't burn, break windows, slash people or beat people because they are mature.
That's really it, in a nutshell. Leftism is, at its root, petulant covetousness. They may be eloquent, articulate, even clean, but in the end they're more childlike than anything else, and when the mask slips, the face revealed is a baby screaming for the nipple.
Leftist-fed leftist. Ick.
Do that too much, and you get Asinine Marxiform Encephalopathy.
Isn't he just the type of puss that makes you want to pee on his leg and then say, "What are you gonna do about it?"
Some of my friends are leaving tomorrow morning for DC. I told them to be armed with cameras, call out any infiltrators and be prepared to send their footage here next week if things are portrayed even one tiny bit wrong. AB, please open up your servers!!
heh, heh, heh……"Impotent" being the keyword…
In my dorky voice (Barney Fife) Hey, I'm gonna go to a rally in Mo in July,,,,
Think I'll wear my black shirt. Dumbass…….

This isn't even new anymore. The guy who shot up the beer place, he was a Lib, people said the white man made him do it. The Times Square Bomber, Micheal Bloomturd said it was probably a Tea Partier. What were the other ones? I have yet to see a real Tea Party Activist being fingered for any of this crap. Well now they can give us credit for something real. This weekend in San Diego down at the Star of India the Impeach Obama Group is holding an Impeach Obama Street Fair. I will be there with film and signs. I know it won't make it to the Lame Stream Media so I plan to use someone's idea up above and send it to the media outlets. If you are in SoCal join us for Impeach Obama http://www.meetup.com/Santee-East-County-Tea-Part... or here http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=13548773… This is my 1000th post…….
Isn't it interesting how the Riverfront Times is comfortable with a little racial profiling?
White? Middle-aged? Angry? Yep, sounds like a Tea Partier, all right.
Just another example of leftist projection.
/not to mention a little ageism and temperament-ism, too
They were hoping it was someone from the Tea-Party in regards to the “firebombing” of Russ Carnahan’s office. If it had been, the so-called mainstream media would have made it a National Story. It would have been in the papers as well as the so-called news networks (propaganda wing of the Obama Administration). Look at how they handled the BIG LIE by the black congressman who claimed they were called the N-word by Tea-Partiers during the healthcare debate.

I think he needs his sweaty ass kicked. I'd love to cross paths with him sometime.
I'd put some lumps on his head that got "progressive"ly bigger, and then blame it on George Bush.
That's seems to still be in vogue…………………………just ask president asskicker, after he gets back from hacking up all the golf courses on Marthas Vineyard.
The best way to help is to donate to Mr Carnahans Republican opponent, Ed Martin.
See how much Russ and Chris Powers appreciate that. Be careful though and make sure your fire insurance premiums are all paid up. It seems you never know with these assholes.

This story, coupled with the story of the attack on the muslim by a ground zero mosque supporter, shows how quickly the progressives are unravelling. This could be a very interesting, and dangerous, couple of months. They are getting desperate and desperate radicals are dangerous.
Is this an example of the homegrown terrorism Janet warned us about ?

ooops … Boy the leftists are sure trying their best to fake crimes and setup the tea party people. Doing what Democrats are best at, lie, cheat and steal.
And the FBI said ??
I read that article. They had nothing on which to base their wild speculation, but he did fit the profile of a Tea Partier. It apparently never occurred to them that it might be a deranged liberal activist.
"We rounded up twice the number of usual suspects, Major Strasser."
He didn't get paid because his wealth was redistributed. Sorry.
Whoops! You would think the wack jobs would be better at deceit since they get so much practice at it working for the Dems……
The day that Copernicus and Galileo are proven wrong after all and we discover that the sun revolves around the Earth.
Why, Left wingers! Is that egg on your face?
Good luck getting him impeached.
It may be possible, but ony after we make poor golf skills, tin political ears,
marrying an alien, and excessive vacationing, on the taxpayers dime, high crimes and misdemeanors.
Until then, we are so screwed…
Congrats on 1000 very poignant posts…!!
I guess it's pretty hard to spin a defense for this one. All I can say is it couldn't have happened to a more deserving group of people.
All I can say is, it couldn't have happened to a more deserving group of people.
The man should be put on disability social security because he is obviously suffering from the effects of Bush Derangement Syndrome, so its BUSH'S FAULT!!! Please November, get here ASAP so that the loon progressives (a redundancy, I know) are defeated and they go into full revolution mode so that even the media will not be able to ignore them.
It is interesting that the SEIU and other thugs from the swill who inhabit the left never attempt to harass or physically intimidate Tea Party/Patriot rally members here in Virginia. I wonder if it's because we have very high quantities of Concealed Carry Holders here? Do you think that the leftist cowards, and they are all cowards, as you certainly can not be brave, to be a leftist, realise that?
How many times now have we heard the lame stream media and MSLSD clamor how those Evil Tea Party People must have done this terrible deed only to find out it was another lefty Moonbat? Geez when are they going to learn"it's one thing to have someone think you're an Idiot than open your mouth and prove it"? I can see November from my house.
I know, I know it will be very difficult to get him impeached but ummmmm what did they impeach Clinton for? Obama is a traitor. He is siding with a Foreign National (Calderon) against the State of Arizona. THAT alone should call for an impeachment. SINCE WHEN does an American president side with a foreigner over one of it's very own states. More recently his 'hawking' of his crappy healthcare plan in ways he was not suppose to. At least 70 people who raised funds for him now have high influence positions. And Clinton was impeached cuz why? Thank you HPD it really killed me to make that 1000th post. I wanted to stay at 29 oops I mean 999 forever.
I'm sure that MSNBC bimbette, Contessa Brewer will be so relieved that, at least, it wasn't a Muslim this time.
Come on Missouri you can do better then the Carnahan family.
Put these bums to the curb once and for all.
Make him pay for his voting recorded in congress. He voted lock step with Pelosi, Reid and Obama…….
This november say adios to Russ and his family once and for all
From what I've heard, arsonists are just a rung or two above pedophiles in the criminal pecking order. This guy looks like he could use a hot meal and a bath.
There's going to be more things like this leading up to November and then the left is going to turn its knives on Republicans. Violence is a tool of the left since they can't win the battle through ideas.
Where are the usual suspects like "anon" with their witty remarks? Oh! perhaps "anon" is in fact this "fine-young" progressive democrat. Who'd a knew?
He was hungry – didn't even have enough money to buy a package of Ramen noodles (must address the "underlying causes").
Like in "The Quiet Man" when Victor McLaglen's character accuses the IRA of interfering in his family problems, the Commandant (Hugh Forbes) replies "If it were, Red Will Danaher, not a scorched stone of your fine house would still be standing. "
That is one thing that makes me sick about MO. We have two family rule here. On one side, you have the Carnahans: Mel, Jean, Russ, Robin … On the other side, you have the Blunts.
That's what I keep saying. Conservatives are serious. If we ever take action, there will be no doubt.
C'mon, this is MO we're talking about. The Blunts don't have that many relatives.
I've long believed that Liberalism is the product of an adolescent mindset: idealistic to the point of unreality, focused on a few broad ideas lacking in nuance, bent on having its own way NOW, resistant to considering any point of view that threatens its own moral certainty. This incident is merely an example of the typical adolescent response to a disappointment: temper tantrums and wanton destruction of the object of frustration.
Obama's doing the same thing to the entire country…
Our Coach bags are owning people's preference. Ask the woman will not miss any quality, even the light travel resort will show special Coach bags glamour everywhere.You possibly can normally come across a Coach Handbag outlet in many cities in a lot of countries, but there can be frequently Coach Outlets store for individuals who would choose to purchase on line. In fact, there are thousands of cheap Coach bags cropping up all over the city and many tourists come for them as well.
