1. glad others refuse to buy into the whole Newsweek-is-to-blame thing.
don't read Friedman today. He's on board with the administration's hype over this one. He used to be a respected jounalist. Hopefully columns like today's will prove to the world Tom drank the Kool Aid.

3. Great toon!
It appears that the Bush lovers out there are the only ones that will believe this newsweek bs.

4. Good cartoon. Excellent LTTE in WP this morning....
"I'm having a reality problem. The White House and the Pentagon are furious because Newsweek didn't double-check the source on its story about an American interrogator flushing a Koran down a toilet, and Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld is complaining because people's words and actions have consequences?

Are we not in the middle of a billion-dollar-a-week war with no end in sight and hideous casualties on both sides because the White House and the Pentagon didn't check their sources about the infamous weapons of mass destruction? Does this mean we can demand an apology and retraction of said war?

The irony runneth over.
