I'm gonna call BS on this. This is the station I work for, so I wanted to see what you guys thought of it. I'm gonna let them know in the morning when I get back to work.

Porcelli family members say they’re proud to be Americans and to support their candidate.

“We went to the Republican Headquarters, got our signs and we put them in the front lawn,” said Rick Porcelli, “Proud to, you know, live in a country that lets me have my views displayed in public.”

A few days after their signs were posted an anonymous note arrived in the mail, sent by someone who clearly didn’t feel the same about the McCain/Palin ticket.

“It has a McCain sign, equals, Our family is moral scum,” said Jennie Porcelli.

The letter contains nasty references to Palin’s pregnant, unmarried teen daughter, suggestions of drug use by her son and all-around scathing accusations about John McCain’s character.

1. Why is this news?

McCain supporters are moral scum.

What am I missing?

2. Uh-huh. So, they're getting the same treatment that the RWers always pile on us.

Boo-hoo. Toughen up.

4. That's what I was thinking

The people they had on the report were real winners in my opinion. They all just happened to live in the same neighborhood in Boca. I think they wrote the letters themselves and they want to plant it on the Democrats. It's shady and I find them reprehensible.

11. i agree with the sentiment

anybody who votes republican this time has no humanity. they are dooming us to more of whats going on.
that IS IMMORAL.
id never do something like mail a letter to someone with a sign tho.

i do have utter disgust at any mccain sign i see, i hafta admit that...

sorry, after 8 years of the right being so god damn self righteous while running us into the ground... i think i can be a lil self righteous trying to help us all stand back up.

if you vote for mccain, you have either A) no brain or B) no fucking soul.

end of story.
