That's a stretch.

This is hilarious. I read a lot of political blogs and news sites. I like to read an equal number that have a right and left slant. Both will stretch the truth to try make the other side look bad. This one takes the cookie... pun intended.
On Huffington Post, a blogger is accusing John McCain's wife, Cindy, of being a plagiarist. Why? Because a cookie recipe that she submitted to Family Circle magazine is a Hershey's recipe. They're claiming she plagiarized a cookie recipe! This somehow makes her dishonest? Isn't that how recipes work? She didn't claim to invent the oatmeal cookie. Is she supposed to invent her own cookie recipe? Is that a qualification for First-Lady that I didn't know about? Must be an inventive chef. They thought the ultimate "gotcha" quote was her saying that she got the recipe from a friend. They're saying it's a lie, because she got it from Hershey's. Couldn't a friend give her a Hershey's recipe?
This is so stupid. They're essentially saying, "Don't vote for McCain, because his wife doesn't invent her own cookie recipes."
