This incredibly disturbing article in today's New York Times is about the Ricketts family, and their plans to destroy Barack Obama.
The main culprit is the father, Joe. He is a rabid foaming at the mouth conservative who wants to spend ten million dollars on a campaign to use comments made by Obama's former pastor Reverend Wright to paint Obama as a radical black man. In fairness to the Ricketts family, daughter Laura is a major contributor to Obama.
They must have some fun discussions at the Thanksgiving table.
