An Open Letter to Bob McColloch:

Hey Bob,

While dropping my kids off at school this morning, I heard a radio commercial that was full of lies and complete mis-statements played on KMOX radio. You need to take action NOW as a Truth Squad enforcer. The ad lied about John McCain’s position on stem cell research. As you well know, Sen. McCain favors stem cell research. However, this ad had someone acting as the mother of a juvenile diabetic, saying she JUST HAD to vote for Obama because he favors stem cell research and Sen. McCain does not. THIS IS A LIE and it violates those Missouri Ethics laws you are so damned concerned about. Why, I’ll bet the lady in the ad is an actress and doesn’t even have a child with juvenile diabetes! The ad ended with a voice over stated it was paid for BarackObama.com. Go get ‘em, Bob. Do your job and prosecute these liars now! Nip it in the bud, Bob. We just can’t have politicians saying things their opponent might not like to hear. Good thing there is a Truth Squad to protect us, the stupid electorate, from campaign distortions and lies, eh Bob? Let us know how it goes, Bob. Thanks for all you do to see to that we are not exposed to campaign lies.

An anti-Orwellian citizen of the Republic,

I hope you didn’t use your real name in this post.

“I hope you didn’t use your real name in this post.”

Did you hear the one about the cross-eyed judge and the three cross-eyed defendants? The judge asked the first, “Do you plead guilty or not guilty?
The second one answered, “Not guilty, your honor.” The judge looked at the second one and said, “I wasn’t talking to you!” The third looked at the judge and said, “I know, I wasn’t talking to you either.”

Make whatever connection with McCulloch you want but be sure to tell the truth.

Or maybe we should refer it to the Attorney General of South Carolina… HE’s on the McCain “truth” squad…

You were probably one of those folks that DID believe in the lies from the swiftboaters.

“Stupid Electorate”? You tell me.

Frank, McCain did vote twice to expand federal funding for stem cell research but, now says he doesn’t think he supports it anymore so he can coddle up to the pro-life folks (at least until the election is over!).

Priests for Life endorses Mccain because he does NOT support stem cell research, unless McCain would just lie for votes, eh?

Stem cell research is one of those issues that Sen. McCain’s stance varies with according to what group he’s speaking to (which way is the wind blowing?). Frank, you sound like one bitter, jaded man to express such hatred for a man who you don’t even know. Or, maybe you do?

I could not have said it better myself. Thanks.
