...and this year, no one seems to have cared?

Either Corsi's getting less credible or the Democrats are playing much better defense that they were back then. Or both. I'll take either one, actually...

PS--Where is Mr. Corsi now? Why, he's being detained in Kenya after a publicity stunt gone awry. I wouldn't even have thought about him if not for this fascinating piece of news.

1. Yeah, he got a little bit of attention for it
And the Obama campaign posted a 45 (?) page rebuttal for all to see.

Seems like his little book of lies wilted in the harsh light of the truth.


BTW... he's being detained in Kenya right now.

2. The assertions in the book were debunked fast, and then it went away.

3. I might be if I thought Gramps' supporters could read it.
Nope. Sleepin' like a baby.

6. From the Swift Boat to the short bus.
My bookstore just returned 200 unsold copies of the book. Not a one of us working there is sorry to see them go.

7. He can just add those
to the hundreds of cartons in his basement that he bought himself in order to make on the NYT Bestseller list!
