4. Only when they publish something which is detrimental to the Clintons.
If it trashes either Clinton, or hopefully both at once, then it's the most reliable source of information. If it writes negatively about Obama then it's trash.

How about not quoting from right wing publications who are not a friend to ANY Democrat?

I'm telling you, this place sometimes is far worse than most RW sites in their Clinton obsession.

Fu**ing unbelievable........

:crazy:

6. According to the Washington Times...
Al Gore took credit for discovering the Love Canal weeks after the Associated Press debunked the myth. Further, the Washington Times RAN the AP piece that debunked only to reassert the myth several weeks later.

10. Never, but it is amusing to see this fervor denouncing this paper today.
Seems that the offense for some here depends on whom is attacked!!!

15. The thing that bothers me most about this is that I don't know
I'm going to the Moonie Times until after I'm there. The source isn't clear at the outset. If it were, I'd avoid it altogether.
