(From the diaries -- kos)

In light of kos' display of Barack Obama's birth certificate, John McCain's campaign has released a rare glimpse of the Republican candidate's own birth certificate.

Thought lost for the ages, the document was found in a clay jar, in an abandoned cave, on the outskirts of Sedona, by a shepherd boy in 1947. The desert climate and the dry atmosphere in the caves kept the parchment remarkably well preserved.

Unfortunately, the language on the document is in Essene, a language which has been dead for about 1,900 years. So, much like a lot of Senator McCain's modern-day speeches, press releases, and interviews, nobody can really comprehend what it says.

Update: thanks for the front page... Wow!

To all the Very Serious People, just remember, laughter sometimes is the best medicine.
