Troopergate and Roger Stone

Josh Marshall does the background research on Republican operative and dirty-trickster, Roger Stone. Stone's been hired by New York Republicans to attack Governor Spitzer. Take a look.

Stone apparently decided to start by making an unhinged threatening phone call to the Governor's father. When caught, his denial sounded like a little kid, blaming his invisible friend.

Marshall also found what an upright character Stone is.

Man, you just can't make this stuff up.
