From the API:
Presidential Candidate Cheysuli has ties to mob boss Tony Soprano. Reporters uncovered information that several of her kittens had been sold to the Soprano household at various times in the past. As no Siamese cats have been found, it is thought that they were purchased as pay off gifts.
While rumors have abounded for years, until now there have been no substantiated reports. One kitten escaped and told the tail.
Those closest to Cheysuli state: “It’s unlikely that this kitten is actually one of hers. First, Tony Soprano is a fictional character and therefore could not purchase this kitten. Second, if we did have ties to Tony Soprano, do you really think Rush Limbaugh would still be around insulting the troops?”
“It’s typical spin,” stated Limbaugh in a rebuttal. “After all, everyone knows that Tony Soprano would never touch me. I know how to get to him.”
Cheysuli herself was not available for comment. The popular beleaguered candidate has fought reports of being assimilated by the Borg and now has to contend with rumors of Mob ties.

Most intriguing comment will be the cat featured first in Weekend Cat Blogging hosted HERE this weekend! Also posts that you want to submit can go in the comments on this post, tomorrows photo hunt post or Sunday’s post. We will be putting up the weekend cat blogging post on Sunday and will add to it throughout the day. I’ll try and keep this message on Saturday’s post as well!
Oh Chey, the papparazzi are just getting out of hand. Honestly, you need to do a Heather Mcartney/Mills and have a break down on national television (did you catch that on the news over there? Seriously, she right spazzed out this week!). I think the papz are mercilessly hounding you and you need to fight back.

Ah, charming Chey… what a superb writer you are. You must have been an English major at CatCollege. We so much enjoy your stories. Keep it up!
Wow, what crazy rumours will the press report upon next? As indicated, Tony Soprano is a fictional character, so couldn’t have bought real kittens. Craziness.
Goodness, I though the bad guys always had big fluffy white Persians! Surely it’s a case of mistaken identity… I bet it’s some D.O.G. person reporting, they can’t tell a Siamese from a Balinese, let alone a Persian! Sometimes I wonder if they could actually tell the difference between a lion and a lap cat! 😉
Oh we are laffin an laffin!! I can’t wait to see what happens next!!
It is sad that Rush Limbaugh is not fictional. We would be happy to send out a Bite Patrol squad to defend you.
You are welcome to come here and hide.
First the Borg were after you now it’s the Mafia…aren’t they really the same thing? *whew I am glad I’m not in the limelight, being a high profile cat makes you a target for all kinds of gossip.
Gemini don’t worry I’ll continue to watch over you on the road trip. I joined up in San Francisco so I could meet my good buddy Beezer.
Wow Chey, the rumors are really starting to fly!! You really don’t get much rest do you. I think I’ll be coming over, I’m sick of ‘bisitors.
holy crappity-crap-crap-crap!!! does ya want me to whack the press person for ya? – Miles
hahahahahaha – just kidding! Chey would NEVER want anyone to DIE for something like this! MILES – are you trying to get her off the ballot or something? SHEESH – Sammy
I Dare You!
Yes, It is ME, Anastasia! Karl was thoughtful enough to put the Dare out on the Day of the Dead, so I can come personally! And if you don’t accept the challenge, I might just come again and haunt you, Hahahahahahahahaha!

I just hope none of the kittens were given to A.J. I do not think he would be a responsible pet owner.
I’m still trying to figure out that picture. I see a toe and tail, but the other parts… Chey, you really should track down your kittens to make sure they don’t return to embarrass you! How would it look for a presidential candidate to have an adult offspring still living in the basement?
Purrs, darling.
Oh no – will the press never get it right?! Even if you kittens did go to a fictional character, we think that his wife Carmilla and daughter Meadow would have taken good car of any kittens. Sigh – the free press…
Poor Chey! Will the tabloids never leave you alone? All of these false allegations . . . it makes my fur stand on end!
Next thing you know, they will be blaming you for global climate change, having been seen with Al Gore!

To quote the Bloodhound Gang’s song, which apply here,
Why’s Everybody Always Pickin’ On Me?”
Well, I guess some people have taken serious the jokes about what happened after the blackscreen.
this is getting out of hand they will make up any old story…press hounds i finks they call them…hounds….now i see the link! grrrr! xxx
Chey, when I agreed to be your running mate, I had no idea of all of the strange things in your past. I was worried, that I would be the one dragging down the ticket. Just plain old cat, Derby, no UFO’s, no Borg’s, no mob ties. Just a humble, simple cat from the Midwest.
we are notifying jack bauer!
What’ll them reporturs think of next? Effurycat knows that a Meezer, with her fiercely feisty and independunt Cattitude, could nefur efur be assimilated, not efun by the Borg!

Detective Skeeter here: One has to consider that VP CHEYney is havin some serious name-envy problems an is spreadin rumors around about candidate CHEYsuli ina efort to confuse the issue.
An as far as the “Soprano” attack goes, well, most cats ARE soprano. It’s natral, it’s factual, and it SHOULD be satisfactial!
My considered evaluation is that this is jus another attack on cats in general by the current VP an his Swift Wooffie PACs. The evidence supporting the new rumors jus isn’t there.
My 2 cents, but I AM a professional…
Detective Skeeter
Chey, I would not worry about this rumor. Anyone who knows a Siamese would be able to figure out that there is no way the mob would keep them around. They talk too much!
Uh oh! Deny, deny, deny …
