She's a Leftist reporter for the NYT...of course she is reality challenged...it's a cultural thing.
Actually, she wasn't. She provided coverage on WMD in Iraq that fellow reporters at the gray hag accused her of supporting the illegal war. She was shunned by fellow reporters because of her positive reporting on WMDs. When the old hag is through with her they will probably fire her because of her conservative leanings. Doesn't mean she's not nuts. In fact, I'm not sure what it means.
