Congrats, guys!
A "our one party media rewards its own" ping!
They give Pulitzers for creative writing? Learn something new everyday.
They do for novels...
LOL. I've see a few of the awards. It emerges that there are some consistent criteria: be on the scene of something and then misinform about what is happening, or tell some really big lies about this Administration.
see=seen. I can conjugate, I just don't type well.
This prize based on wet dream lies, is another example of why the fish wraps in America are going down the drain.
It's not the accuracy of the reporting, it's the seriousness of the charge.
Frog, do me a favor and post that picture of tripe on this thread...where it is more appropriate in regards to the propaganda rag that one the pulitzer...
Yeah, and that vile Wash. Post reporter Robin Givhans, who writes about "fashion" i.e. slams Laura Bush, won one as well. BARF...
Is it legal to conjugate on the internet?

LOL. I don't know. Could try it and see what happens, I guess. If it will improve my typing, I'd be willing to consider it.
They have really taken the prestige out of this award haven't they?
