WTF Is It Now?!?

Fantasyland
Everything in the comPost attack on Joe Wilson is either a gross distortion or a lie. Robert Parry and Watertiger totally pwn the gaping Bush suckholes at the WaComPo:

Fred Hiatt’s Washington Post editorial page and George W. Bush’s presidency have a lot in common – most notably an arrogance of power so extreme that they believe their very words can alter reality...

The real reality of the case is that in 2003, a hubristic administration sought to damage a critic, Wilson, who had offended Vice President Dick Cheney by accusing the White House of having "twisted" Iraq War intelligence. The anti-Wilson operation ended up exposing Wilson’s CIA wife. Then, recognizing the potential criminality – not to mention the political dangers – the White House launched a cover-up.

But that is not what the Post’s editorial page wants you to understand. It pins much of the blame for the scandal on Joe Wilson, whom the Post says “will be remembered as a blowhard.” The Post also distorts Wilson’s statements in a way that parrots long-discredited White House talking points. [W]hat can be said about a newspaper’s editorial board that willfully lies to its readers and slanders an American citizen...?

Fred Hiatt, asslubed partisan douchenozzle.
