BETTER DEAD THAN READ

Shortly after The Commercial Appeal endorsed failed presidential candidate John Kerry, a memo went out from Shelby County Republican Women (SCReW, for short) suggesting that all dyed-in-the-wool GOPers should immediately cancel their subscriptions to the worthless liberal rag.
