Schiavo Memo Was Indeed GOP-Penned...
So all the conservative conspiracy theorist dummies that said it was merely a Democratic ploy can go back to convincing the world that John Kerry and Jane Fonda are actually the same person.
The memo that outlined what a great political opportunity a brain-dead woman could be for the GOP was written by Senator Mel Martinez's (R-FL) legal counsel.
The legal counsel to Sen. Mel Martinez (R-Fla.) admitted yesterday that he was the author of a memo citing the political advantage to Republicans of intervening in the case of Terri Schiavo, the senator said in an interview last night.
Brian H. Darling, 39, a former lobbyist for the Alexander Strategy Group on gun rights and other issues, offered his resignation and it was immediately accepted, Martinez said.
As Kos points out, Martinez can only distance himself from the memo so much since he actually distributed it to other Senators...
UPDATE: Also from Kos, another list of right-wing dumbasses that should be chomping on some crow right about now...
2nd UPDATE: The Washington Post has a .pdf of the GOP memo up now. Much to the chagrin (or is it denial?) of the retards at Powerline...
