McCain hits up Russian Envoy for Donations, gets turned down publicly
On a day on which McCain campaign manager Rick Davis hinted that Obama
was taking foreign money,
the Russian Mission to the United Nations
has released a standard-issue fundraising letter gone a bit astray:
It was addressed to the Russian envoy to the U.N., Vitaly Churkin,
at the mission's address, but without his title.

Here's a screen shot of the Russian Envoy website (just in case):

2. This can't be real. McCain really IS a Manchurian Candidate?
:rofl:

I'm not even worried about McCain's hypocrisy but by the fact that he'd ask RUSSIA for money. I guess he has a closer relationship with Communists than we thought; I really wish his POW records weren't sealed.
