Wrong Al-Jazeerah, You Dummies...

The A-bomb tried to hit me with this piece that allegedly proved that the Arab al-Jazeera network was cheering Democrat Bob Casey in his efforts to unseat holy roller Republican Rick Santorum.

Knee-jerk conservatives all over the U.S. breathlessly forwarded this to their liberal friends as evidence that the Democratic Party is a wholly-owned subsidiary of al-Qaeda.

Even stupid Lil' Ricky couldn't resist bringing it up while talking to the Long Island Mole Man.

One problem: Wrong al-Jazeerah.
The Web site was not related to the Arabic TV network based in the Middle East - spelled al-Jazeera, no "h".

The goal of al-Jazeerah, according to its Web site, is to "promote cross-cultural understanding between people all over the world." It's based in Dalton, Ga., not Qatar.
Check your facts, righties!!!

UPDATE: Lil' Ricky is so worried about getting steamrolled by Bob Casey that he and his Republican supporters are financing a Green Party candidate to run in the November election.

That's a chickenshit, right there...
