The disappointment that this was NOT politically motivated is palpable. 'Not completely'? How about 'Not at ALL'.

Most of us share his sentiments. We want them all out of office, but fire bombing is not the way.

I'm not sure I trust that they got the right person or that the person was manipulated into committing this act.

The media again have egg on their faces. They just knew it was politically motivated, until reality set in. Similarly, they were giddy with the prospect of the motorcycle shooter at a Jewish school in France being a neo-Nazi or some such far right nationalist, and of course the coward was on a jihad against the West.
Either way, the Davis Campaign sees this as a good reason to step up their fundraising efforts. Maybe the aliens will kick in something...

I wonder how much Wendy paid the homeless man to do this act for her. She and the democrats are playing the public for suckers. Can anyone tell me why a homeless man would do such a thing???? Um I bet if the law investigates deep enough they may find out why this homeless man would have a reason to to a crime to her.
Folks this does not add up and I hope Fort Worth finest will follow through on this case no matter were it goes.
We are all waiting to see the results.
I hope there is no cover up on Fort Worth behalf
Anyone BUT Obama and democrats
