Case in point today from the Daily Kos:
With a handful of exceptions, many members of the press refuse to hold McCain to the standards against which the Democratic candidates are being measured. Accordingly, McCain has galloped by stumbles that may have doomed any other candidate: confusing Shiite (Iran) and Sunni (al Qaeda), not knowing whether contraceptives prevent the spread of HIV ("you've stumped me"), etc.
The usual leftosphere meme…but I first read this in my Bloglines reader which saved the original version of this story for posterity.
How's that irony working out for ya?




The benefits of the internet is that when you make a mistake you can correct it…and that someone usually has a copy of the original.
I suspect that the MSM is just holding all of their ammo for the general election. Then the gloves will come off.
The screenshot appears to say “confusing shiite and shia”, or is my acuity crooked? That sounds more like the Kos standard of accuracy.
