ORLANDO, Fla. -- A group of protestors stormed and then ransacked a Bush-Cheney headquarters building in Orlando, Fla., Tuesday, according to Local 6 News.

Protestors Storm, Ransack Bush-Cheney Headquarters In Orlando

Local 6 News reported that several people from the group of 100 Orlando protestors face possible assault charges after the group forced their way inside the Republican headquarters office.

While in the building, some of the protestors drew horns and a mustache on a poster of President George W. Bush and poured piles of letters in the office, according to the report.

"We told them to leave, they broke the law," Republican headquarters volunteer Mike Broom said.

Two protestors received minor injuries when the crowd stormed the building, including a Republican volunteer.

One of the protestors said she wanted to send a message.

"We want to send a clear message to Bush, we want him to take his hands off our overtime pay," protestor Esmeralda Heuilar said.

Local 6 News learned that most of the protestors were from the AFL-CIO and were taking part in one of 20 other coordinated protests around the country.

A spokesperson with the AFL-CIO told Local 6 News that the Orlando protest did not go as planned.

A protest similar to Orlando's demonstration was held at a Bush-Cheney office in Miami at the same approximate time, Local 6 News reported.

You're confusing Liberals and Labor. If you ever have to choose between getting hit in the face by a Liberal or someone from Labor, go Liberal. We hit like girls.

Oh, wait a sec, you didn't put *this is not a joke*. I can't remeber, does that mean you DO take this story seriously, you DON'T take it seriously or you posted it because you hav no plan B and don't think who gets elected will make much difference in your life?

Union guys usually have a brick somewhere.
