Courier-Journal:

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell knew last week -- at a time when he was denying it -- that his staff had sent e-mails encouraging reporters to look into the background of a 12-year-old boy used by Democrats to support expansion of a health-care program.

In an interview Friday with WHAS-TV reporter Mark Hebert, the Kentucky Republican said his staff had not been involved in trying to push reporters to look into the financial situation of the boy's family.

Senator, your choices are simple. Either you fire this staffer, or you support his actions. Failure to fire him is ipso facto support.

Larry Craig should grab putrid old Miss Mitch by his turkey waddle and say, "Who you callin' queer, QUEER?"
Then do a little tap dance just to f*ck with the old gurl's head.

Well Mitch the Bitch's wife, who works for the Bush administration, probably told him, all those poor kids parents want healthcare coverage, screw them, that will affect my BONUS!
McConell is a liar, and fraud like all those other GOPERS spewing MORAL VALUES and how they are the party of life! What a crock, then they tell a three year olds parents they shouldn't have had her if they couldn't afford insurance! Oh really Mitchy, too bad your mama didn't abort you. Oh, I forgot this is the party of life. That is no abortion for those who are raped, or when the Mother's health is at stake, and if your poor, dirt poor, even better, crank out those kids because we believe in Life! We just don't believe in helping those poor kids after the birth. These people are truly snakes.

What a vile human being you are McConnell. Is "Mean Mitch" realy your nickname? It fits.

Hey - got any grandchildren McConnell? How'd you like enjoy the same experience first hand? Let the insane Michele Malkin go after the grand kids?

I wonder if we can get "Stalker Malkin" over there to harass them. I hear she'll do ANYTHING for money. The left doesn't have anyone comparable - so it'll have to be O'Lielly or Stalker Malkin.

Mitch and Larry are in the same boat, both married gay men who can not stand the site of each other. Mitch was SOOOO happy when he thought Larry was resigning. Now he will be afraid he will be outed by Larry.

Promise, Larry and Mitch, we don't care that you are both gay but you are hypocrits. Just come out, you'd both be happier if you could tell the truth, even if you are RepubliCONs.

This racist, sneaking, ferret-faced bastard can kiss his senate appointment goodby when his term's up. People are not going to soon forget his cruel insidious hounding of a 12-year-old boy and his family.

We were planning a late fall vacation at the Shaker Village at Pleasant Hill... we were there years ago with our kids, and it was wonderful.

Alas, we decided a few days ago that we won't spend any of our money in places where voters have so little shame that they keep returning jerks like McConnell to the senate.

Sorry Pleasant Hill, sorry wonderful beautiful staircase, sorry delicious sour lemon pie.... when your state elects somebody decent and responsible, a person who doesn't slime children, we will happily return.

"But McConnell's communications director, Don Stewart, said in an interview Monday with The Courier-Journal that he had told McConnell about the Oct. 8 e-mails sometime around Thursday, the day before the interview with Hebert."

Big ol' LYING QUEEN Miss Mitch McConnell, he's trying so hard to deflect from his own OUTING, from being tossed from the military after JUST 10 DAYS, then Larry craig exposure, no trashing a 12 yo coma patient and his family.

No child needs a whipping, but they do need spankings.
