From the Department of What's Really on Your Mind?
Another typical day in the Republican headquarters of the Show Me State, fundraising and cursing at constituents....
The letter Rep. Jo Ann Emerson sent to one of her constituents read like any other a 20-year-old legislative correspondent might prepare for a member of Congress: Thank you for writing, your concerns are important to me, blah, blah, blah. Then came the kicker: “I think you're an asshole.”As the Associated Press reports, Emerson, a Republican from Missouri, says she has no idea how the insult made its way into her letter to a Centerville, Mo., resident named Bill Jones....As the AP notes, Emerson not only signed the letter to Jones but added a handwritten postscript as well: “PS -- please forgive the delay in responding, motherfucker.”
...
A copy of the letter made its way to the Missouri Democratic Party, which faxed it to the AP.

I'm guessing an intern transcribed what the Congresswoman actually said, but forgot to cut out the naughty-bits.
