Whodat, have you become a partisan yourself?
Remember, attacks on your fellow Republicans must be open, above board, and made with the aim in mind of severely undercutting the Democrat enemy that's overrun our country.
From best I could tell the "news" regarding Wooten is about as well sourced as something from, let's say, the Washington Post, and given the burning of Governor Palin's church and the other attacks on her, I'd suggest that things of this nature are definitely "news of interest"!
You might well pass that thought on to your girlfriend.
