SARASOTA - A 46-year-old man has been arrested in connection with an aggravated assault incident against U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris (R-Sarasota).

The incident happened when Harris and several supporters were campaigning on the northwest corner of the intersection at Fruitville Road and North Washington Boulevard Tuesday evening, according to Sarasota police. A vehicle headed toward them and swerved at the last moment and drove off.

The police got a good description of the car and the suspect was brought in for questioning before being arrested. Barry M. Seltzer of Sarasota was arrested and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and was taken to Sarasota County Jail.

Actually this is all of the article...

ROFPMP!!!...rolling on the floor pissin' me pants...

Grrr...

Thanks for posting the pic!

:bounce:

Damn he looks woofy there!

stole his vote in 2000.

Thieves tick people off.

Maybe he thought he saw a hideous beast and was trying to hit it..I know if i saw a site like that it would scare the bejeebers out of me.

On behalf of the citizens of the State of Florida....

in the whole thread. If the trial was held in Palm Beach County
he would likely get off.

Damn fine stuff!!

God, I am glad I am out of Florida with her on the road.
I agree it was a drive by Botox attempt !

Mental images of a swerving pink Mary Kay Cadillac :7

fraud after Kerry is elected and she is indicted by the new Attorney General?

Seriously, could this be a bid to get headlines and sympathy before the election? I would put nothing past these nefarious beings...

sorry I don't remember the name of that "sympathy leech"

:puke:

there's a mental picture I did not need!

Something about a missing codex? Is it my media viewer or the file?

for assaulting the woman who is single-handling responsible for the entire destruction of the United States for the last four years.

Hell, he should be hailed as a hero.

(While we're at it, throw a Purple Heart for having to touch the slime of a woman)

Instead, let that woman rot in jail for 100 million years.

Hawkeye-X

She is so hateful and sinister.

"A bee flew into my car!"

"I was swerving to avoid the small child who had darted in front of my car!"

"I thought she was a hooker and was going over to check her out. As I got closer, I realized that if this woman was a hooker she was going to starve to death, so I drove on!"

"I've recently lost my dog and I thought that I had found him, I got closer and realized my mistake. My dog is really pretty!"

And why would Katherine Harris be standing on a streetcorner anyway?

Probably just second nature for her to be there. Kinda feels like home to her...

He came to the police station Wednesday and complained to officers that Harris' supporters had impeded traffic.
"I intimidated them with my car," Seltzer told police.

Seltzer and KKKoulter pie throwers get our jailbird heroes of the month award.

And he shouldn't have swerved.

:bounce:

I can't condone this behavior AND most likely he'll stay in jail, it's one less voter in FL.

SS doesn't protect anyone but Pres/VP candidates. Guess she'll have to hire her own. I know this is inexcusable behavior, but I guess I'm a bit surprised she hasn't been threatened in the past too. Her actions pi**ed off a lot of people, and not only in Florida!

been threatened. I'm sure she feared for her life and that of her family after the last election. I think I would have left the position! This election has got to be her worst nightmare come true.

I've known people like Kathrine before. They're only interested in their own success and popularity, and will cozy up to anyone who can get them there. If shrub looses, and his little bro looses the gov. of Fl, she'll switch to anyone who can help HER!

That's a far bigger travesty of justice than somebody scaring her with his car.

:)

maybe she was just starting her night job.

to go take some hits out there on opponents? Fragile minds in fragile times.

:P

caused himself. The all around low value of people like harris normally keeps them safe and guarantees a long life.

in this manner, it doesn't result in aggravated assault charges!In fact, the police just say they can't do anything and no one was hurt so there's no crime.

This happens all the time nowadays - mostly for the crime of daring to exercise one's right of way. I absolutely support charging drivers with aggravated assault as threatening a bicyclist or pedestrian in this manner is exactly that - however, let's not have one law for the Republicans and another for the rest of us!

that never ends. She is a blathering kiss ass for *.

HAHAHA

I'm thinking that there isn't a car bumper made that would stand up to a 5 MPH impact with Katherine Harris's makeup.

AND A Hammer.

That's the only way to stop this foul smelling piece of human garbage.

I mean, why was he arrested?

:evilgrin:

No matter what she may be responsible for, she does not deserve to be run down by some lunatic in a car. This gives our side a bad name, and cements in the minds of the repugs that we will stoop to any level to get what we want.

:evilgrin:

The BFEE telling Harris there will be no tell-alls published should she lose this election.

Of course the lapdog corporate media will not cover it, but the same guy who PROVED the election was stolen in Florida 2000 has the scoop again:

A secret document obtained from inside Bush campaign headquarters in Florida suggests a plan - possibly in violation of US law - to disrupt voting in the state's African-American voting districts, a BBC Newsnight investigation reveals.

Two e-mails, prepared for the executive director of the Bush campaign in Florida and the campaign's national research director in Washington DC, contain a 15-page so-called "caging list".

It lists 1,886 names and addresses of voters in predominantly black and traditionally Democrat areas of Jacksonville, Florida.

An elections supervisor in Tallahassee, when shown the list, told Newsnight: "The only possible reason why they would keep such a thing is to challenge voters on election day."

Ion Sancho, a Democrat, noted that Florida law allows political party operatives inside polling stations to stop voters from obtaining a ballot.

Mass challenges

They may then only vote "provisionally" after signing an affidavit attesting to their legal voting status.

Mass challenges have never occurred in Florida. Indeed, says Mr Sancho, not one challenge has been made to a voter "in the 16 years I've been supervisor of elections."

"Quite frankly, this process can be used to slow down the voting process and cause chaos on election day; and discourage voters from voting."

Sancho calls it "intimidation." And it may be illegal.

In Washington, well-known civil rights attorney, Ralph Neas, noted that US federal law prohibits targeting challenges to voters, even if there is a basis for the challenge, if race is a factor in targeting the voters.

The list of Jacksonville voters covers an area with a majority of black residents.

When asked by Newsnight for an explanation of the list, Republican spokespersons claim the list merely records returned mail from either fundraising solicitations or returned letters sent to newly registered voters to verify their addresses for purposes of mailing campaign literature.

Republican state campaign spokeswoman Mindy Tucker Fletcher stated the list was not put together "in order to create" a challenge list, but refused to say it would not be used in that manner.

Rather, she did acknowledge that the party's poll workers will be instructed to challenge voters, "Where it's stated in the law."

There was no explanation as to why such clerical matters would be sent to top officials of the Bush campaign in Florida and Washington.

Private detective

In Jacksonville, to determine if Republicans were using the lists or other means of intimidating voters, we filmed a private detective filming every "early voter" - the majority of whom are black - from behind a vehicle with blacked-out windows.

The private detective claimed not to know who was paying for his all-day services.

On the scene, Democratic Congresswoman Corinne Brown said the surveillance operation was part of a campaign of intimidation tactics used by the Republican Party to intimate and scare off African American voters, almost all of whom are registered Democrats.
