Father Knows Best?

It sounds like a lot of folks are hot and bothered about this photo from a John Edwards campaign event where Democrat thugs tore up the George W. Bush sign of a 3-year old girl:



Some snippets from the story in the Washington Times:

"They just pounced on us," said Phil Parlock, who took his 11-year-old son, Alex, and 3-year-old daughter, Sophia, to the Democratic rally at Tri-State Airport in Huntington, W.Va.

..."She was crying; they were pushing and shoving her," said Mr. Parlock, a Huntington real estate agent. "She was scared."

...The Parlocks went to Mr. Edwards' airport rally yesterday "to support the president," Mr. Parlock said, and brought nine Bush-Cheney signs with them.

Obviously, anyone who would threaten a little kid or tear up her sign is a vile reprobate. But I have to ask: what kind of jackass shows up at a Democrat campaign event and sticks Bush signs in his kids' hands? What kind of parent puts his kid in this position?

As long as we're venting outrage, let's save some for this utter moron of a father. You've gotta wonder about a putz like that a little bit.
