18. Okay, someone unrecc'ed this? Hmm... Why?

Now, I'm certainly not trying to promote this story as "truth", but it is a story that's wandering through right wing fantasyland that's also being fed the other stories of Eric Cantor, etc. too. Now you might not like it, and I certainly don't, but we ignore stuff like this at our peril.

If we'd allowed the Cantor story to stay under the radar and not be questioned, just think of what the wingnuts would be doing now with stories of his, and stories from Beck, amongst others fueling their propagandized anger just that much more.

We need to talk about what's going on here, and find holes in what's going on, so that we can find ways of diffusing this story with anyone on the right that still has an ounce of brains left.
