    Swiftboating is lame...

    Swiftboating is lame. Shame on Salon for participating.

    George Allen is asshole #1 in my book, regardless of whether or not he used the "n-word" back in college. The very idea, however, that shadowy figures from 30 years ago are coming forward and regurgitating this filth - true or otherwise - turns the stomach.

    Disappointing.
