Bible Burning Smear Campaign Against Republican Candidate Karen Harrington

By: Javier Manjarres (Cross post-Shark Tank)

Republican congressional candidate: Karen Harrington, the front runner in the primary race to unseat Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz is being targeted by a smear campaign that has crossed line from between being juvenile to possibly being a matter of public safety for law enforcement. : Over the past several months, the reported smears against Harrington’s character and campaign have been posted on the free public website Craig’s List. Until now, the rants have been nothing more than harsh but unsubstantiated political rhetoric aimed at damaging Harrington’s good name.

Today a note was posted on Craig’s List asking for Muslims to attend a ‘Bible Burning’ event at one of Harrington’s restaurants. The post lists the restaurant’s address and states that the ‘burning’ will take place on Saturday February 25th between 1-3pm. : The Pembroke Pines police have been notified and they are treating this as : serious public safety issue. The Pembroke Pines Police Department will have a presence between those hours listed in the post and they have opened up an investigation into the author of the post.

We can speculate that the author of this post is either one of Harrington’s competitors in the primary race or one of their misguided loyal supporters. : Several of the candidates in the race could be brought into question since some of them have a history of making false and demeaning remarks toward Harrington or towards women.

Joe Kaufman has been going around telling Rabbis and anyone who will listen that Harrington is a supporter of Hamas and has actually hired an CAIR/Hamas sympathizer to her campaign. : Joe Goldner has called Harrington a “Political Whore” on many occasions and also spews the same Hamas rhetoric about Harrington as Kaufman has. : Ozzie deFaria has also taken a leap onto the fringe, proclaiming that a certain female elected official whose initials are ‘DWS’ needed to be sent back to the pound and featured a political ad that drew: a dog collar around her neck.

It remains to be seen who is actually behind smear campaign. : Here is the Craig’s List post in question:
