    Sigh, yes, I got one today

    From my Mother...the woman with a Master's degree who believes anything you send her in an email. The Obama family portrait and lots of other pictures insisting that his Kenyan family members are all criminals and terrorists. Since CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN won't tell you about these "awful things", you're exhorted to send the pack of lies on to the other 200 million Americans with Internet access.

    It boggles my mind that people believe this crap.....
