If you have ever wondered what sort of people you are dealing with when you deal with Republicans, the passage below says a lot. From the Center for American Progress - The Progress Report.

ETHICS -- OHIO GOP SMEARS AL FRANKEN WITH DOCTORED PHOTO AND FAKE QUOTE: Yesterday, the Ohio Republican Party sent out a news release attacking Rep. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) for enlisting the support of comedian Al Franken. "What is troubling," the press release said, "is that Brown would solicit support from someone [Franken] who compared conservatives to Nazis 'who should drink poison and die.'" The quote used in the news release is taken from Bernard Goldberg book, 110 People Who Are Screwing Up America , in an alleged interview between Goldberg and Franken. But in his book, Goldberg makes it clear that the exchange is completely fictional . The Ohio Republican Party represented it as fact. The news release was accompanied by this photograph showing Franken dressed up like a baby bunny, wearing adult diapers and clutching a fluffy white teddy bear. Andy Barr, director of Franken’s Midwest Values PAC, confirmed, “The picture is a fake .” A 2004 AP photo of Franken was used for the doctored image.

Joke Time

After the college student had delivered the pizza to Bud's trailer house, Bud asked what was the usual tip. "Well," replied the student, "this is my first trip here, but the other guys say if I get a quarter out of you, I will be doing great."

"Is that so?" snorted Bud. "Well, just to show them how wrong they are, here is five dollars."

"Thanks!" replied the student. "I will put this in my school fund."

"What are you studying?"

"Applied psychology."

More Problems

USA Today is reporting that Rep. Henry Hyde (R) has sent a letter to Donald Rumsfeld outlining the failure of the US program to eradicate poppy (heroin) production in Afghanistan. The article also notes that the production of the illegal drug is the primary funding for the resurgence of the Taliban.

It really doesn't seem like there's much that the Republicans touch right now that they can't screw up, does it?
