Why Is David Shuster E-Mailing With Anti-Hillary Group C.U.N.T.?

New York Observer:

It was a little before midnight on Tuesday, Jan. 27 that MSNBC correspondent David Shuster hit the "Send" button on a curt e-mail to Republican rabble-rouser Roger Stone.

Days earlier, Mr. Stone and others had filed papers with the I.R.S. to form a "527" organization dedicated to educating "the American Public about what Hillary Clinton really is." The organization was called "Citizens United Not Timid," i.e., C.U.N.T.

"Hey Roger Stone," wrote Mr. Shuster in an e-mail to Mr. Stone's personal Web site, the Stone Zone. "Why not put your own name on this?"

Mr. Stone was in no mood to take flack from an uptight reporter unable to take a joke. Mr. Stone felt the suggestion that he was hiding behind the site was ludicrous. After all, he had invited reporter Matt Labash of The Weekly Standard to sit in on the organization's planning meeting.

The next afternoon, he responded. "Hey David Shuster," Mr. Stone wrote back. "I in essence did when I let the entire planning meeting be on the record for a reporter."

I applaud Mr. Stone for speaking his mind and look forward to the day when he's driven all but the misogynists and racists from the Republican party. Anyone sane can find a home in the Democratic party.

Another bizarre twist in what is essentially a non-story. If this doesn't put the lie to the Clinton's Shuster-bashing and howls of victimhood, I don't know what will. The Clintons are shameless...

Not as shameless as the photoshop artist who did Shuster's pic on the New York Observer page!!
Come on, people... times have changed and one can no longer get away with such manipulation, as least as long as there are blog sites which are handy for pointing out such foibles (thanks HuffPo).
