    McCAIN FOUND TO HAVE PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY: McCain, after reading the book, “See Jane Run”, recited every page in perfect order. When questioned about this phenomenal act, said, “I read, and love, it every night. Sometimes, after a hard day campaigning, my lovely wife, whatshername, reads it to me.”

    PREZ CANDIDATE JOHN MCCAIN ARRESTED FOR BREAKING & ENTERING!!

    CANDIDATE FOUND INSIDE PRIVATE DWELLING!!

    “I own this house; I ought to know my own property” stated Sen. Mccain.

    It was later reported the candidate was indeed correct abut the address of the house he was found in, it was just the wrong city.

    SECRET SERVICE AGENTS FIRED WHEN REMARKING ON AN OBAMA REQUEST – Ten Secret Service agents were fired when they muttered “Oh boy” during Senator Obama’s request they all were Che Guevara t-shirts during a political rally. Obama misinterpreted what they said and thought they said “O-Boy” as a derogatory remark about his race.

    Purported anthrax mailing had return address and name of sender.
    Stranger than fiction.
