Washington Post: We Tried To Bury That Story About ObamaCare Blowing Up The Deficit

Washington Post columnist Patrick Pexton made a rather startling admission in the paper’s Sunday edition: The Post never meant for their recent story about how President Obama’s health care law expands the budget deficit to become a viral Internet sensation. In fact, they deliberately tried to bury the story.

The MSM is showing itself to be highly incompetent, sloppy of late, being caught in a web (pun intentional) of deceit, one that has always been characteristic of itself,on a regular basis these days.

That’s why its name is the Rancid Media: rotting fat.

The MSM could screw up the report of a one car funeral...and would if it met their political agenda. They are disgusting.

“The truth is that every complex law change, every annual federal budget, is a risk. They’re all based on assumptions and forecasts that may or may not come true.”

This statement, from the article, is exactly why government should move slowly and with great trepidation. The only things the government should be doing quickly are those things related to protections of our sovereignty and our personal freedoms.

The results certainly appear to be the very sort of thing we could expect from organizations that are incompetent, sloppy and filled with deceitful intent ~ but here we have something more akin to just plain stupidity.

The Post is, itself, a newborn creature that's one of the heavyweight players in the field of INTERNET EDUCATION.

They do not want for people who know electronic communications.

Here they forgot you can't actually bury a story. There is no longer the editorial power base of controlling the front page.

There are folks out there with data-mining programs running night and day looking for every new story that has anything to do with ObamaKKKare. When the programs hit a mother-lode like that they call it to the attention of critical humans who turn it into a devastating and viral internet hit!
