#3 What do you EXPECT from Barack Hussein, considering where he comes from?

or for that matter, what do you really expect from Democrats? I mean, really.

They ARE Democrats, you know. ACORN, ring a bell? SIEU waiting for you in the alley? That sort of people.

How about Nancy Pelosi's smile? Or Harry Reid's charm?

They will if they can. They will if they can.

#4 I've lived in or around Baltimore for 27 years and this is the first time I've run across the Baltimore Chronicle. I looked at their web page and it looks like excerpts from Indymedia.

I can go another 27 years without running into them again, thankew.

#9 There was an article on this at the Mudville Gazette (it's the impossibly skinny article on the left, at least on my browser), and someone claiming to be Ellie Light responded.

A previous commenter noted that the real scandal wasn't that dozens of identical letters has been sent, but that they'd been published. It's hard to get a letter published. What was so special about this one that it got published dozens of times? "Ellie" replies that her letter got published because it was all thinky and stuff. Try it!

...signed Ellie J. Light...

Another Mudville commenter wondered if Ellie's middle initial was D.
