The race for Arkansas' third congressional district took a gruesome turn Sunday, when the campaign manager for Democratic challenger Ken Aden found his cat slaughtered with the word "liberal" painted on the corpse. Jacob Burris said that his cat was killed and left on his doorstep, where it was found first by his five-year-old son. "The thought of brutalizing any animal to make a political statement, no matter what that statement is, is beyond any standard of decency," Aden said.
