The Washington Post should do more thinkin' and less whinin'.

In some cultures, this writer would be left with no alternative but to fall on his sword. Or, his keyboard, I guess. What an idiot. And he writes for the largest newspaper in the nation's capital.

Dumb as a.......

/Perhaps Thomas Jefferson was right, "The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers."

This will not stop those who oppose the idea that never existed. VOTE NOW, VOTE OFTEN!

Approves.

/this is a good death...

Look at Fark. Attacking the person. Not the facts. And the fact is that according to Jack Kimble of California's 54th District, "Bush fought 2 wars without costing taxpayers a dime". Must I remind you: Who passed the bailout? Obama. Who inflicted massive deficits by increasing the burden on privately-run Medicare? Obama. Who attacked us with Katrina? O-BAMA.

PhiloeBedoe: The Washington Post should do more thinkin' and less whinin'.

Good line though.

FTA: Capehart also admitted his mistake, saying in a real tweet, "Yes, I got bamboozled by @repjackkimble but the point remains."

The point is that he should have done some fact checking first before he got butthurt and wrote about it.

When you see "the fact that" in a sentence you know you're in for some fail.

So, is the Fark Handle "Jack Kimble's campaign manager" still available?

Yet another shining example of a "journalist" getting tweaked by Twitter.
Mike Wise is a WashPost columnist also isn't he? Granted he was the instigator and others fell for. But I would think that by now Publishers would be pulling their fat asses out of their social clubs and actually going to their newsrooms to have chat with their folks.
These are high profile journalist. So we are hearing about these farkups. But it makes me wonder how many others happen everyday in smaller circulations that don't get the attention.
Twitter is stupid. But I can understand a reporter looking at tweets to possibly pick up a scoop. But it's use should end right there. At that point the reporter should start doing what they are there for. And that's to go out and get the facts and quotes from Sources!
