Need to Hurl? Check out "Regular Joe"'s latest

Starts out with the "fair and balanced" crap ("they all do it") and then basically attacks Wilson and Kerry over and over again.

I'm not going to post any of this drivel.

2. 'A silly man'
Well, that's kind of a new one. I have never quite heard the Rethugs call Sen. Kerry a 'silly' man. (Well, we did say he needed an image change, maybe 'silly' will do the trick.)

Deeply amused by Clueless Joe, as usual.

3. Regular (Intern Killer) Joe
http://www.bluebus.org/archives/000258.php
Joe Scarborough's dead intern

It was great to see that Chandra Levy has been laid to rest, now 2 years after her disappearance. Rest in Peace Chandra. It's too bad her family had to deal with the whole controversy surrounding her disappearance and murder. I can't help but wonder why another similar case did not get the same attention.

I'm talking about of course former Republican Congressman from Florida, Joe Scarborough, who now has a cushy job reporting for MSNBC. Back in July 2001, in the middle of the summer of Chandra frenzy, a young intern by the name of Lori Klausutis was found dead in the Florida office of Joe Scarborough Initial reports said that there was no signs of trauma to the body. Several weeks later, the autopsy report was finally released:

The official medical examiner, Dr. Michael Berkland, then conducted an extensive autopsy - more than 80 hours - before announcing his findings last week.

Berkland said Klausutis died from a blow to the head, probably caused when she fainted and fell to the floor after an attack of a previously undiagnosed "valvular condition of the heart." Klausutis, an avid runner and member of the Northwest Florida Track Club, had never evinced heart problems before - but such things happen, Berkland said. He also admitted that authorities had previously lied about her fatal wound in order to forestall media inquiries into the case. "The last thing we wanted was 40 questions about a head injury," he told the Northwest Florida Daily News.

Berkland moved to Florida after his medical license was revoked in Missouri following a 1998 case in which he was found to have falsified information in an autopsy report, American Political Journal reported.

It's all quite sketchy. A medical examiner with a recent history of falsifying information on autopsies comes up with a far fetched explanation that even Lori's own family doesn't buy. And isn't it odd that at the same time the "liberal" media was in a frenzy over a Democratic Congressman's possibly connection to a missing intern (at the time), not a peep was made about the Republican Congressman who had a dead intern turn up in his office? It just doesn't add up. It's time for Joe Scarborough to come clean and tell Lori's family what REALLY happened.

4. The Lori Story comes back to haunt Scarborough, as it should until
resolved to proper conclusion.

What went down was a travesty of justice, and Scarborough never came clean...as usual, he skipped over the whole thing. I won't say he killed her, but he sure knows more than he's willing to tell, and he should be called on it at every turn.
