Vandal throws eggs at (Former Senator Norm) Coleman's house, Coleman ducks in a "George Bush move."
Edited on Sun Apr-19-09 01:53 PM by usregimechange
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Former U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman says a young man on a bicycle threw eggs at his St. Paul house - one day after judges ruled Democrat Al Franken won last year's Senate race.

Coleman, a Republican, told police he heard thumping Tuesday night and when he went outside, a man launched another egg - and obscenities.

Coleman told the Pioneer Press he ducked in a "George Bush move," referring to how Bush dodged shoes thrown at him...

14. He as a kid who was probably angry at having no representation for hmmm..almost 5 months.
It shows some serious self-restraint for being denied a right because someone can't admit they lost.

16. Shoes would've been better
since they're the international symbol of disgust.

8. So you're saying that any one's life or property is justifiable?
I didn't. 

Are you implying that some one should egg teabaggers or worse?

Your thinking is on thin ice here

9. wow, you can't even type coherently
what exactly is your point, again?

"any one's life or property is justifiable?" is justifiable what? You're missing some nouns and adjectives, or something.

but hey, you're quite amusing.

11. I feel any violence done against RWers is entirely justified by
their own inflammatory speech and conduct.
Fuck them.
They are fucking scum and deserve nothing.

Welcome!

13. what's interesting is that is nothing like what I said
the person with the courier type was just pulling stuff out of their butts. Methinks it sometimes becomes too tempting to "monitor" DU without saying something once in a while before returning back to your home site.

25. I agree, and I certainly have no sympathy for those RWers - with
all the hate they called up, they should be prepared to have some of it come back to them. You can't really expect to do all that evil to people and to provoke such anger and have no result from it.

It's like Palin saying she wa persecuted by the liberals....not nearly enough, IMO.

12. Next time, rotten tomatoes. Shaving cream pies are too cumbersome.

20. If nobody saw Norm duck an egg, how do we know

that he ducked an egg? (And did it make a sound in the forest?)

At least we all saw * duck. Twice.

24. right--no proof eggs were even thrown--or that he did successfully duck!
I hope he didn't duck.

26. Ample proof he's a rotten egg, though. To quote

James Baker "The votes have been counted and recounted and counted again."
Or something like that. Anyway, Norm lost. And do did George.

22. The funny thing is- not only has this guy lost his Seanate seat- but he's trashed any influence
He might have had as a lobbiest.

I suppose some bussiness might hire him for something.

28. How do we know if this really happened?
I have a hard time believing this after how desperate Coleman has been acting over the Senate seat.

29. Note to Coleman: If you find yourself needing to make a "george bush move"...
You've already lost.
