Carpenter is smart, and hot, and successfully making a name for herself.

That makes twice that the Post has jettisoned normal fact-checking in order to rush an attack piece against McCain onto its front page.

I'm forced to detract "this is not the WaPo I knew".

Matthew Mosk is a POS. He’s been writing fact-free hit pieces on Republicans for years. The folks at FreeRepublic have quite a dossier on him. Maybe this pile of stinking garbage will finally get him fired.

Oh no, dear! He won’t get fired. Remember: liberals never get fired, but promoted…

The Washington Post is just another pathetic MSM hack job. One has to just look at some of the miserable race baiting columnists, e.g. Eugene Robinson etc. That news rag should merge with the New York Slimes, and be one happy bunch of cheering America haters.

The Washington Post should read Pamela Gellar's blog if they want to learn on how to a story on “unusual” donors, the Wall Street Journal did. Atlas Shrugs, Obama's Gazan Contributions

C’mon, everyone! Mosk has a very important story to tell — He can’t let those inconvenient ‘fact‘ thingies to get in the way!

Ed,

To be fair to Amanda Carpenter, shouldn’t her face be associated with a blogger proves the WaPo is 75% fact free, rather than the WaPo’s faults?

Does receiving a donation from the local grease monkey qualify a candidate as being in the pocket of “Big Oil”?

Way to go Amanda! She really does lots of good work. It is mostly unbiased straight forward reporting of facts. That seems rare in journalism these days. Of course since she works for a website, I’m not sure she is exactly a ‘journalist’. . . and that would be a good thing seeing as how the readership of newspapers is on the downturn.

Once again a stellar job by the Carpenter chick.

Now we’re digging up individual donors to candidates, based on some stereotypical idea that they shouldn’t have made the donation? This is the scientific method in reverse.
