Come on McCain, make an ad out this ridiculous claim. Charity is giving money voluntarily, not having it taken from you.

Don't want to steal the thread, but briefly off-topic re: Joe The Plumber. The Toledo Blade reports that the (Democrat-appointed) police chief says that the TPD employee who trolled for Joe info is a really good employee and had "no ill intent - just made a mistake". And her union, AFSCME, will be going to bat for her. So, to all who hope she will pay a heavy price for this, think again. I smell a wrist-slap a-coming. Like I've said - all Dem, all-union, all the time here. She'll be a hero.
