Your source is a tabloid.
Umm, hello? These things are on newsstands everywhere. I suppose you think Batboy is real too?

I do to. I would have posted from the WWN if it ran something similar to this. That was my intent to begin with. This is a complete non-story with the enquirer as the source.
Depending on when it suits our agendas, we don't care what the source is. Depending on the message conveyed, it is ok to use unscrupulous sources...The Enquirer is about 10 notches above other quoted sources like World Net Daily - they did break the Edwards story - but that is the angle - sleaze stories if they can get them - sometimes they do - most the time it is lindsay lohan sleazing it up for them...
With out any real info in the OP "story" to begin with, it is interesting to see the responses.
The entire thing is trivial in the extreme and yet, with nothing but our enquierer's mini "story" we are able to attack and defend our "positions" to the bitter end. Does any one else see where I am going?
I wonder how many people believe I don't like Obama or Michelle because I posted this?
I wonder how many people really don't care about the "crime" but the person who did it?
I wonder why we can denounce sources one minute and then use them when it suits our positions?
I wonder why this non story garnered any attention at all?
I wonder why more people didn't question the source or statement the feds were active in searching for them...I couldn't find more than the "story" mentioned...is there really one?
I wonder if there is any form of critical thinking going on when it comes to these subjects?
Why can't anyone admit they are wrong anymore?
Why can't people laugh at themselves anymore?
Why must we demand we are right when we are not critical of our own review process?
Why is it so easy to define our own countrymen with a varying opinions as a "terrorists" "nazis" "commies" "libtards" etc? I mean, are we really all that different?
Peace
