The article has been taken off the link you provided. It must have been a good typo in an article that had too many hits!!!!!!!!!

I was afraid that would happen. I did a cut and paste - and posted it here.

HB, you are a genius. Thank you for catching it before it got away. I knew it had to be only a matter of time before the AP caught up with TOTV. But it looks like it took 'em a little while.

Hah!

For those just tuning in, the glaring typo was from Nedra Pickler, a political writer. It was on Google News and made the rounds yesterday.

HB was thinking ahead and recaptured it for us from my link. See Hyacinth in this thread at 9:27 PM yesterday.

Uh oh, HB, what if they send someone from the Bureau of News Speak to take us away? This is a bit Orwellian, is it not?

Ms. Bucket,

You did goodly. The original story is now missing from Boomer's original link.

I would have never known.

I must need a seeing eye dog....I can't find the link. But is this the one that called Liberman a *rick?

Yes. That is the one.

I saved the entire article (photo and all) in a word document, and am glad I did as it's been pulled off the AP link. I just don't know how to post it on TOTV.

good save hb. however, i believe our over-eager b3 may have made an unwarranted assumption that a typo was indicated. i personallly see it as a desired evolution of character, intelligence, and experience that Joe L could grow into a viable conservative (?) gop possibility from the dregs of being a 2000 democrat vp prick.

Hey Munc,

We (I) can only hope. I am worried that Johnny is going to cave. I got way too carried away in that VP question thread the other day. Sometimes I reveal far too much about what I really think. But I really, really want to be able to vote. McCain has shown bravery before. (Ya think?) I am a kind soul who hates ridiculous taxation. I really feel that I have nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. But for now, I really must run away from this computer before I am caught up again in a political rant like I did in that other thread a couple of days ago.

Dear Mr. Tony, Mr. Admin, Sir:

Should I expect the Thought Police or the thugs from the Bureau of News Speak to show up at my door to haul me away? Or is this considered scholarly discusion? - - Wait! I have to run! -- Someone is pounding on the door! :yikes:
