    Question

    I've heard about and seen some of these smear e-mails about Obama, but I've never heard of any about John McCain. It's not as if we couldn't come up with some questionable moments in St. John's background to expose and twist and lie about.

    Gee, I think that says something about the right-wing nuttery in this country: they are scumbags.
