Rumor mongering idiot endorses Hillary Clinton, et al.

Jump to Comments

“The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, owned and published by Richard Mellon Scaife, endorsed Hillary Clinton as the Democratic presidential nominee Sunday. Scaife personally funded many of the investigations that led to President Clinton’s impeachment in 1998.”

This is also the same guy who is credited with starting the “Hillary killed Vince Foster” rumors, among others.

Bruce Springsteen - whose E Street Band recently lost Danny Federici to melanoma - endorses Obama.  Guess who has more credibility in my book?

Meanwhile, in the real world, slightly racey photographs of Miley Cyrus are circulating…  big deal except that she’s only 15.  Where the hell is her father?  Is he paying attention?  Since this is not the first time Miley’s taken pics of herself in her undies, I wonder if Billy Ray Cyrus will take the camera away.  Or is he looking at them with a big grin on his face?

Also, today is the Boston Marathon.  Yesterday, Mainer Emily LeVan ran in the US Women’s Olympic Marathon Trials - also held on the Boston Marathon course.  Emily’s daughter, Maddie, continues her battle with accute lymphoblastic leukemia.  For LeVan, an ER nurse from Wiscasset, the marathon wasn’t about herself but about her daughter.

You see, Emily started a blog and fundraiser, “Two Trials,” for the Maine Children’s Cancer Program.  The goal was to raise $52,400, but as of last Thursday night, the fund had already collected over $64,000.  Thanks to efforts like Emily LeVan’s, Maddie’s type of cancer shows a cure rate of about 90% among kids under the age of 5.  At one time not so many years ago, A.L.L. was a death sentence.

As for how Emily did at the Women’s Olympic Marathon Trials, she ran 2:45.  As they say in Maine, that’s not half bad.
