Gary --

Perhaps you don't understand the way DailyKos works. I, for instance,
could log on and start denying the Holocaust. Or whatever. Until I was
caught -- and deleted -- it'd be up, just like everyone else. And
unlike Jerome Corsi, frequent Free Republic poster and author of Unfit
to Serve and Obama Nation, backpage Daily Kos bloggers don't get their
own wingnut welfare book deals.
