Washington Post: rapidly becoming a joke
This is what is now passing as "journalism" at the top of the mainstream media food chain. I had a slim hope that the Post would try and milk the fact that the New York Times has frittered away virtually all of its integrity, and at least attempt to portray itself as the one place where you could count on some truth. But it appears that, in the times we live in, the media is as much of a de-facto organ of the Democratic Party as Goebbels was for Hitler. These once proud institutions, institutions that America trusted, are attempting to do the same thing to our political system and our minds as Goebbels did for the Nazi Party. And now that the blogs are around to call them out on their serial abuses, the mainstream is responding in kind by turning up the heat to epic proportions; to the point where they are now manufacturing "news" to justify a failed point of view out of thin air.
What a national disgrace.
