this is one hell of an interesting article

dr allen sounds like one hell of an interesting woman as well. but that's not what this is all about. this is all about fear. our next president is going to be a black man. why people are afraid of that is beyond me. but - THEY ARE. they will stop at NOTHING to make sure barack obama is not elected (in all fairness, these pieces of paranoid steamin' shite did the same to a white man named john kerry too). he WILL be elected though. he MUST be. he is far from perfect. he will make decisions i don't agree with. unlike king george and his entire court, i believe barack obama is a moral and honorable man.

this story is interesting because someone (dr allen) puts on their sherlock holms hat and tries to trace a false, ugly, full of lies, virulent e-mail.
