Can the editorial page of the Washington Post get any worse?
Really people?

Hey Steve Cohen, your true colors are shining through.
Cohen, the Memphis Democratic House member whose previous claim to fame was a viral video of him “dancing” to rap music at a campaign event in 2010, tried to pull a fast one on the political world this week.
On Sunday night, he attended the White House’s tribute to soul music and, afterward, tweeted at Cyndi Lauper — of 1980s rock-pop fame — “great night,couldn’t believe how hot u were.see you again next Tuesday.” He then immediately deleted the tweet.
Speculation swirled as to what Cohen was doing — particularly because the congressman had drawn attention by exchanging tweets with a 24-year-old model in February. Cohen later explained that the woman in question was his daughter, whom he had found out about just three years ago.
It turns out that the episode with Cohen’s daughter was directly tied to the Lauper incident. Cohen, seeking some payback, said Friday he purposely wrote and then deleted the tweet to Lauper — knowing it would pique the media’s curiosity and allow him to talk more about an upcoming PBS documentary on soul music in Memphis.

This was apparently on the 12 April 2013 op ed page.
Really people? This was worthy of being on the second most important op ed page in the nation and probably the third most important in the English speaking world? Just appalling.

I've watched his career for almost 30 years. I know bullshitters and he ain't one of them. Fuck all the rest.
- And in answer to the OP's question. I'm sure they won't stop until everyone who picks up a WashPo will use it first to catch the vomit.
