Did Al Franken's liberal radio network Air America divert city money for the elderly and inner-city children to itself?

Looks as if it came from The Washington Times. At least that's what's on the dateline.

Yes.

That much has already been fully established. The real question now is, what will happen to Err America after this revelation?

If only for the formatting...

No kidding...proper formatting makes a good read a lot easier to read.

I have a feeling O'Reilly's going to have something to say about this.

It must suck to be a lib. They put so much time, energy (and money) into Ohio, DSM, Rove, et al and all they get is essenially a pig poke in the eye with a recess appointment. OTOH, most cons could care less out ErrAmerica, and yet, we get a nice juicy (and typical) lib funding scandal thrown our way.

If FoxNews jumps on this the MSM will soon have to follow suit. If that happens, I smell blood in the water!

And in other news from the World Of Hypocrisy, the French are trundling granma and granpapa into attics as they prepare to take off for summer vacation. Around the World . . .

Let's hope so...of course, the DUmmies will be whining about it all being a way for Fox to take attention off the Rove "case".

Jeez Louise, I clicked the link to read the full article and a McLame for President ad popped up! On second thought, maybe there is some symmetry there ... nah. Time for an anti-excerpting rule if a click reveals a picture of a RINO.

Al Franken's possible response...
