McCain and A Telecom Bill
Thursday, December 20th, 2007
Is McCain in bed with a telecom lobbyist? We mean that in a metaphorical sense, obviously - the man would need more Viagra than Bob Dole, even. That being said, the world is a-buzz with rumors that McCain maybe did a couple of favors for a girl lobbyist and his campaign is trying to strong-arm the NY Times into sitting on the story. The McCain camp is denying everything. But, having been a girl-lobbyist, Drudge’s story smelled possibly good enough to be true, so I did some digging and made some phone calls and I didn’t find a smoking gun but I do smell something maybe a little fishy, too.

So, Castro. Dead? He’s writing columns, apparently, but hey, the Family Circus still runs too. Anyway, no one knows if he’s alive or dead or what, though we’re leaning towards “alive.” Because did you know that Fidel Castro is the Highlander? It’s true!
