So, which conspiracy theory is best?
Governor’s Mansion fire investigation:
- (for Democrats) What was so compellingly revealing that it had to be burnt in the Governor’s Mansion?
- (for Republicans) Which delegate left a bag of burning dog doo on the porch, not knowing there was nobody home to stomp it out?
If science was our national passtime…
then this would lead to a congressional investigation.
