Now on Fox: McCain financed anti-semitic PLO terrorist!

Surveying the news this morning, I learned on Fox that this election could be decided by a videotape the LA Times has of Barack Obama saying something at a dinner for a PLO terrorist.

McCain has put this forward. ABC News reports today on a radio interview in which McCain referred to Obama's toast for a "PLO Spokesman." The name is Rashid Khlaidi, who's a Palestinian activist but a moderate one -- and a college professor, so it's no surprise Obama might go to a dinner.

The Times says it can't release the tape because of a promise with its source. So we don't really know if it's damning or not.

Funny thing, though: We do know, courtesy of the Huffington Post, that John McCain has funded this "PLO Spokesman," distributing a half-million bucks to the pro-Palestinian group he chaired.

Of course, he's actually no more a terrorist than Joe is a Plumber. But if he was, I imagine he'd rather half a half-million bucks than a toast. I'm sure the folks on the right demanding the tape will want to make sure we get all the details of McCain's relationship with this terrorist.
