SOME REPUBLICANS REALLY ARE LUNATICS

From the New York Post courtesy of the Daily Kos:

A Republican challenger to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is bizarrely claiming that the former first lady has been spying in her bedroom window and flying helicopters over her house in the Hamptons, witnesses told The Post yesterday.

Former Reagan-era Pentagon official Kathleen "KT" McFarland stunned a crowd of Suffolk County Republicans on Thursday by saying:

"Hillary Clinton is really worried about me, and is so worried, in fact, that she had helicopters flying over my house in Southampton today taking pictures," according to a prominent GOP activist who was at the event.

"She wasn't joking, she was very, very serious, and she also claimed that Clinton's people were taking pictures across the street from her house in Manhattan, taking pictures from an apartment across the street from her bedroom," added the eyewitness, who is not involved in the Senate race.

I don't much like Hillary Clinton myself, but I certanly don't think she has either the resources or the gumption to pull off what this weirdo is accusing her of. Clearly, this McFarland person is a real nut, paranoid even, and may want to get some therapy, or at least some good meds. But, oh my, how far we've come since the 90s. It is interesting that this report comes from the New York Post, owned by the same guy behind Fox News, Rupert Murdoch. Needless to say, the Post is as much of a shill for the GOP as Fox is. Back in the day, the Post, as well as Fox, was completely willing to take at face value pretty much any crazy claim about the Clintons that came along. Murder, wild drug orgies, bizarre witchcraft and lesbianism, child molestation, you name it, it was all fair game if the accusations were directed at Bill or Hillary. So what's the deal now? Helicopters and spying strike me as being much more credible than the mud being slung in the 90s. I wonder why they've decided to take the moral high road with this one. I guess they just don't care anymore: maybe the guy in the White House now has actually made them miss the peace and stabilty we enjoyed a decade ago. Who knows?
