Stop the preses!

The New York Times, the publication Hunter S. Thompson once referred to as the "heavyweight champion of journalism," has printed this sentence:

"On the second vote, Mr. Boehner triumped."

The four horsemen are on their way, I believe.

Check out the full story here

It seems that DeLay's legacy has rubbed off on his friends. The favored horse in the replacement race for House Majority Leader fell miserably short, and a veritable unknown Republican from Ohio now holds the second most powerful post in the House of Representatives. Interestink...

The NYT also employs, to this day, everyone's favorite lacky of the administration: Judith Miller. She sold the war and led the bullshit WMD farce. Though one of my favorite journalists, uncle Thompson was not known for... shall we say... sober and lucid judgement at all times. It has also been thirty years since he said that of the publication, which bears a more and more striking resemblance to CNN every day--also not known for "sober and lucid judgement." Pretty animated logos, though. Damn pretty.


might I reccomend the Kobe Beef Burger, Sir? We keep the cows pampered and well fed. It not only sedates them enough to not cause trouble till we slaughter them, it also makes 'em taste pretty good. Damn pretty good.

Thanks, Doc. I'll try the burger. Nummy nummy.

And I was not trying to imply that the New York Times should be taken with anything but a grain of salt (the publication itself is, to my view, a puppet organization). Just clarifying. But I do love the trite feeling superiority I get from pointing out one of their rare typos.

Poke the fuckers and they still bleed. That's my motto.
