UPDATE:

One day, won't we all have criminal backgrounds? I mean, seriously, aren't we all just one slip of the tongue away from going to Gitmo right now?

Or maybe Thompson really isn't the most conservative candidate after all. Condoning drug possession and distribution is only for Liberals right?

Nevertheless, this just shows Thompson's laziness and lackadaisical attitude towards just about everything, doesn't it?

"There's not a campaign in the world that has the ability to research every one of its supporters going back more than 20 years," Harris (Thompson's communications director) said.

Cocaine has been found on 94% of all Spanish banknotes in Spain. That's pretty amazing. But what it doesn't tell is how many of those notes were used to snort the coke and how many simply transferred coke from tainted bills to untainted ones.

I guess it really doesn't matter. That's just a lot of coke floatin' around. I wonder if there's a business in squeezing coke from banknotes...somebody will try, I'm sure.

What would you do with $340 Billion?

He exhibited this type of behavior before he was President, too. He just didn't spend so much. More here.
