Yesterday, I posted an article from the Plain Dealer which more or less gives Jerome Corsi unopposed publicity for his shitheap book.
Today, the PD strikes again by posting this fearmongering piece of garbage from defenddemocracy.org, a right-wing "elect Dems, expect terrorist attacks" lunatic-forum headed by the likes of Newt Gingrich, Steve Forbes and Bill Kristol.

Two recent articles from the August 16th and 17th Plain Dealers really have me questioning who the paper is in the tank for this coming presidential election.
Even though there is a Cleveland connection, I'm curious as to why you would give unquestioned legitimacy to a bottom-feeding and widely discredited liar like Jerome Corsi, who's odious "Swiftboating" of former candidate John Kerry has reared it's ugly head once again in the form of "Obama Nation". This smear job is already being debunked by the Obama campaign and others extensively.
Also, why would you give legitimacy to an article from a fearmongering right-wing website like defenddemocracy.org? First of all, their assertion that "Barack Obama would cut ALL missile defense funding" is an outright falsehood. In truth, he only said he would cut investments for UNPROVEN missile defense systems and wouldn't weaponize space to work towards a world without nuclear weapons. It's the same "Elect a Democrat - expect a terrorist attack" scare tactic Dick Cheney used and they're STILL using it.
I'm not sure when the idea and goal of peace became unrealistic and silly, but to the war-happy lunatics who run that think tank, I guess it just did. America cannot afford to provoke more wars or attacks.
Do you think your staff could possibly fact check your subjects before giving them credibility they may not deserve?
Let's see if they print it.
