Tombstone of Hillary Clinton's father knocked over

Wonder how that happened?

Police in Pennsylvania said on Tuesday that the tombstone of Hillary Clinton's father had been knocked over in a possible case of vandalism, the Scranton Times-Tribune newspaper reported, days after she announced her presidential bid.

A person at the Washburn Street Cemetery reported that the gravestone of Hugh Rodham had been overturned, Scranton Police Chief Carl Graziano told the newspaper.

Graziano said the tombstone may have been vandalized. "I'm not sure how else it would have fallen over," he told the Tribune.

The police department in Scranton could not immediately be reached for comment.

Hillary Clinton, who begins the 2016 presidential race as the Democratic front-runner, revealed her candidacy on Sunday. She ran for president unsuccessfully in 2008, losing her party's nomination to then-U.S. Senator Barack Obama.

Cemetery caretaker Paul McGloin said it was later righted, according to the Tribune.

"I hope this had nothing to do with politics because that's just wrong," McGloin he told the paper.

White trash dope addict Limbaugh must be inciting his flock of mindless sheep again.

A hundred or so knocked over? Vandals on a spree. Just had a case like that here.

Just that one? It was ideological argument.

Ironically.................

Quote:
Rodham was a staunch supporter of Barry Goldwater’s 1964 presidential campaign and remained a committed Republican until his death. Even after his daughter married Democrat Bill Clinton, he (according to Bill Clinton) "never gave up hope that his son-in-law would join him in the Republican Party and support a cut in the capital gains tax."
