As Blitt mentions in the passage you quote from him.WLWoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641349431429568799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706678653651301316.post-53172228737094294762008-07-15T05:30:00.000-07:002008-07-15T05:30:00.000-07:00I agree this cover image is an outrage and in very...I agree this cover image is an outrage and in very bad taste, no matter what your political affiliation. Shame on The New Yorker. However, as to your quote from Truman: give us a break -- do you really think there are no lying, dishonest Democrats? There are corrupt politicians on both sides of the aisle. Actually, I'd challenge you to name a politician who is not corrupt. You don't get to where McCain and Obama are in politics without piling up some dirty laundry. And I'm surprised that as a compassionate liberal you'd launch such a vicious attack on Cindy McCain. If she were married to a Democrat, anyone who wouldn't be empathetic to her battle with the disease of addiction would be considered a hard-hearted ogre.<BR/>Voice of ReasonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
