Ricin screening often yields false positives.
However, given that there seems to be a lot of this going around, and given that it does not seem to be constrained to a particular party, and given the belligerent rhetoric out of NoKo, I’m starting to wonder if this isn’t something they and their fellow travellers cooked up.

Of course it tested positive. How dare they leave the attention whore out of the mix. It wouldn’t be a right wing conspiracy if he didn’t get one.

Geez, it’s not like he opens his own mail but some lowly worker. So, it was them who was in jeopardy not ‘the boy’.

Endless FReepathons
Do you Know Why?
There are loyal posters that donate every FReepathon. Some donate several times during every 'thon. But others never donate. Why?
1 My enemies haven't been zotted.
2 The owner doesn't support my candidate.
3 FR won't "upgrade" to "Like" buttons and blinky crap.
4 Someone else will donate.
5 My friend was zotted.
6 I lost my job and have no income.
Only one of those is a legitimate reason.

Come on people. This is serious. I despise the president but cut the DU nonsense. There’s no conspiracy by gov or Uhbama. It’s not nice it happened, either.
