Hillary sounds a little bitter.

Hillary did this? Nahhhhh, this has Joe Biden's pecker prints all over it. ;)

The origin was traced back to Andrew Sullivan's computer. He didn't mean it as a slam. Just his Christmas list.

I like the hindenburg exploding and sinking Titantic graphics the night the Canadian Liberal party lost the election.

Internet performance art, I think it should be called.

That reminds me of the old joke about Nixon. One day he's walking on the beach in San Clemency, and he encounters some words written in the sand with urine, saying "Dick Nixon Sucks." He calls in the Secret Service to investigate.

They come back to him with the results. "Sir, we have bad news, and worse news. The bad news is that we've traced the urine, and it's Henry Kissinger's."

"Well, what's the worse news?"

"It's Pat's handwriting."

Could you highlight the parts that are wrong?

That's both wrong and frightfully amusing. And, apparently, RACIST!!!!

Hmm. Since it does not have the usual "this article is the subject of dispute" or other typical disclaimers above it, I must accept this Wiki piece as fact.

No he can't!
