Tell the Haters You're Not Stupid

Nine weeks from Tuesday, Kentucky voters will get their first chance since 1988 to cast meaningful votes in the Democratic Presidential primary.

What makes me so sure that the Democratic primary race will still be competitive on May 20?

Because hate-mongering emails bursting with lies about leading Democratic candidate Senator Barack Obama are clogging my email, both at home and at work.

They're the same lies that have been proven lies time and time again over the past year, but they stay in circulation. I won't repeat them here because you all know what they are.

So even though these lies have been exposed numerous times on national television and in national publications, and by Senator Obama himself multiple times in nationally televised debates, they're circulating again in Kentucky.

They're circulating here because somebody wants to stop Kentuckians from voting for Barack Obama. Somebody who is very afraid that Kentucky Democrats will clinch the nomination for Senator Obama.

Somebody who thinks Kentuckians are exceptionally stupid.

Keep that in mind when you receive one.

And do the world and your fellow Kentuckians a favor: click reply-all and paste into the reply the following link, which is the proof that the lies about Senator Obama are just that: lies from people who think you are stupid.
