Barack Obama may claim to believe in things and stuff, but he secretly doesn't. That's the lesson of today's Times story on his "nearly 130" "present" votes in the Illinois legislature, a story that surely took hours of painstaking research, where "research" means "talking with Hillary's campaign and perusing the websites they set up specifically to accompany this story, Votingpresent.com and Votingpresent.org." (Both those sites are not configured right now.) Also, Votingpresent.net is the single awesomest site on the internets.
