Sometimes the Republicans take my breath away…

The hypocrisy and chutzpah Conservative leaders and pundits display is amazing.

I never thought I’d see the day that FOX News would actually challenge John McCain’s campaign over some of the outright lies it’s been spreading in various speeches and campaign ads, but amazingly enough that day has come:
