D.C. couple accused of spying for Cuba

By GottaLaff

Eeks:

Federal officials say a Washington, D.C.-area couple has been arrested and accused of spying for Cuba.

Officials say both are former U.S. government employees -- he from the State Department, she as a Congressional aide.

One official says the spying went on for more than two decades.

We expect to learn more details later today when a federal indictment is unsealed. For now, officials will not disclose the names or any other details.

More than 20 years? That's a whole lot of infiltrating.

John Sidney McTemper is contagious: Behind the Scenes at Fox edition

By GottaLaff

Hey kiddies! It's time for another edition of How McTemper's Campaign Reflects the Attitude of Their Boss:

Clearly not all reporters are enamored with John McCain's press operation.

Early Wednesday, the Fox affiliate in St. Louis posted video of an awkward, testy exchange between staff at the station and McCain's senior press aides -- Brooke Buchanan, the national press secretary, and Nicolle Wallace, the former White House communications director.

If McTemper were, by some miracle, to get elected, imagine how exchanges about delicate international matters would go between his people, or J Sid himself, and, say, Iran.

On second thought, don't. It'll give you nightmares.
