Emailing funny cat videos to your friends is one thing, but sending pornographic videos you think are "awesome" is on a whole different level, a Republican gubernatorial candidate promoted by the tea party movement is finding out.
An upstate New York website announced Wednesday, "Since Carl decided to make an issue of 'pornographers and perverts' who are subverting our society and offending his values and Catholic sensibilities, we here at WNYMedia.net thought now would be a great time to revisit the 70-something emails that Carl Paladino sent around to hundreds of his friends, advisors, and associates as well as to leaders in the WNY business community and government officials over the course of several years."

And oh, what emails they were, ranging from racist depictions of President Obama, to different racist depictions of President Obama.
