CARNAHAN ADMITS STAFFER WAS BEHIND OFFICE FIREBOMBING!
The suspect who firebombed Rep. Russ Carnahan’s office last week was reportedly a disgruntled progressive activist employed by the democrat. 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.

I thought “failing to do his job” was a prerequisite for Democrat Socialist Workers’ Party personnel. What gives?

You go, Jim!

This is no shock, especially when the “suspect” was released. Had it been who they hoped it was, that person would have been on a one way trip to Gitmo.
sliderblaze commented:
so it’s seems im having trouble posting a comment over at RFT.. lol, oh well to that clown making a political statement = insane but fire bombing a political figure = sane BRILLIANT
down with dems commented:
But will charges be pressed? Haven’t heard a thing about that. Keep on this story… see if Russ lets him off.
charlie commented:
Why are Republicans even paying attention to this story? I don’t see what the controversy is and why conservatives are wetting their pants over this.
gus commented:
Chris Powers = Sweaty Libtard.
gus commented:
Charlie???? Do you have a pony tail sissy boy??
SM-Illinois commented:
How’s that for transparency & honesty!!! After he got cornered, exposed and outed….by jove the loser slimeball weasel finally coughed up! (No insult to weasels intended!)
sliderblaze commented:
Charlie… you must not have been paying attention. Tea party (conservatives) have been pegged as violent and when a violent act happens, they are suspect number one and time after time it turns out it’s leftists that are the violent ones… it fits the bigger narrative that dems and the media have been hatching and failing at EPICALLY i might add. If it was an isolated event, nobody cares, but it’s not, it’s cumulative.

==============================
Of course you don’t Chuckles…. violence and bombings are standard tactics for you lefturds.
gus commented:
Charlie. Did you see the SWEATY LIBTARD?
Dripping in sweat. Psychotics often use drugs that disable their ability to sweat.
Chris Powers must have stopped taking the meds. It’s classic Charlie, but don’t worry, Chris Powers will get excellent health care in the “JOINT”.

Paging Russ: pay the people who work for you.Moreover,how many reports did you recieve from the field about Mr. Powers behavior and how it reflects your judgement?
Charlie close your eyes ,and pretend this was any Republican running for office and this story was posted, what would be the narative the next day by our vaunted “fourth estate?”

If somebody sweats profusely and likes to play with fire, are they not a soul headed for the underworld ? A perfect member of Obama’s minions.

Now watch Russ “Reichstag” Carnahan squirm as he explains how his whackjob ex-employee was driven insane by Palin, Limbaugh, and Beck
Palinfan commented:
The Left was in an uproar about how some crazed teapartier was responsible. Whoops!
myohmy commented:
Russ Carnahan must be disappointed.
Opus #6 commented:
Boy this is another in a long line of false accusations against Tea Party members. FAIL!
Jack Savage commented:
Wow – he’s awfully sweaty in the video too. Maybe the bloodhounds tracked him down. Or other staffers who detected a faint, yet familiar odor…

kato commented:
The trouble with progressives is that they’re all disgruntled.
They’re good at tearing things down. Their track record at replacing what they’ve destroyed with something better is terrible.
Blue Collar Todd commented:
What we really need to be worried about is when there is a high level attempt to do something like this and it is not so easily identified. I think the Left is more that capable of mimicking a Reichstag Fire “crisis”.

jorgen commented:
Since the office doesn’t really look firebombed and since the police didn’t keep him, I wonder if the whole thing isn’t a setup by the Dems.
scottraide commented:
So Russy had security cameras installed.
I feel sorry for who ever did the work, they’ll never get paid.
It will be interesting to see how Carnahan’s comrads at the union thug rag, The St. Louis Labor Tribune spin this one! Remember when union thugs beat a black tea party member at Carnahan’s townhall meeting? That union rag claimed it was tea party members who beat the union thugs! So I would not be surprised if that rag lies again and claims the Carnahan arsonist is a “Teabagger” in their words.
Interestingly enough, this same union rag is all for illegals coming across the border and slams Arizona for its new law.

Was he perhaps looking for his favorite red stapler as well?
