I've never seen white garlic powder. It's always a light tan color.

After all, isn't Marion Barry still the mayor?

He is actually running for a spot on the DC Council these days.

Hmmmm? Just how far would the Kerry bunch go to get media attention ..??

Especially .. since Sandy Burglar is such a glaring story right now .. and reflects very badly on the Kerry campaign.

Would not surprise me at all.

hmm, has Bergler actually been seen today? Maybe it's really toast crumbs - a subtle message from Hillary.

Who'd believe that white powder would be found lying around at Kerry's place? it all goes up their noses right away.
