I don't think I'm going to attempt to touch this one

Via Skippy, jfern's dKos diary discusses a new update by Wayne Madsen to his election coverage. I've questioned his previous articles, and in the first comment to this diary, one Kossack wastes no time in being critical of this new Madsen piece:

I haven't read the entire article, but it seems to have a few inconsistencies. For example, anyone who wants portability to Unix isn't going to use Visual Basic. Also, I haven't been able to confirm the Ray Lemme suicide story by Googling.

Should I fire up Lexis/Nexis to see if this supposed suicide got some coverage? I could, but I'm not even going to bother. I spent a few hours researching Madsen's last story to no avail, and I refuse to do so again. Madsen needs to start backing up he's claims.
