David Vitter's war on Christmas

Why does Vitter hate Santa?

Robert Frenzel was booked on one count of criminal mischief, a misdemeanor, after deputies found him hiding in the neighborhood around the Metairie coffee shop where he recorded Normand's group, said the report released Tuesday.

Frenzel told deputies "he was on assignment to conduct surveillance on a subject with a white beard," said the report. "He did advise that it was not sheriff Normand that he was assigned to follow."
