What about alcohol?

If it was just alcohol, I don't think he would have spent so much time in Brooklyn when he was supposed to be elsewhere. It's no harder to get a drink in D.C. than it is in NYC.

"His sexuality seems so incredibly off point, given the pressing reality of the situation, dontchathink?"

Not. What you refer to in morally neutral terms is in fact a central manifestation of the corruption and degeneracy of the heavy left in general and the NY Slimes in particular. The militant bonesmokers at the Slimes are different from the common run of poofterdom in one respect, they buy printers ink by the barrel. Their perversion is their narcissism is their nihilism is their implacable hatred of Real Americans, Christians, the Constitution and the US Marine Corps. But like the rest of the heavy left, the NY Slimes is done for, ignored by most and cropping up as the butt of lame jokes on the Leno show and such. When Howl Raines whimpers and pules these days, does anyone know, does anyone give a rat's patoot? In other words, L, there is no "pressing reality of the situation" [whatever the f$#k that is]- there is just the simple fact that more and more people are seeing through the old whore's lipstick and rouge.

Anyone who takes a look at its daily work—the paper's Page A2 corrections box—cannot avoid the conclusion that the paper of record is serious about its job.

Yeah, for example shortly after Clinton took office The Gray Old Whore had an article about how Clinton had turned the economy around. A couple of days later the Times had a "correction" buried somewhere in which they admitted that the economic turnaround was well underway at the end of the Bush term.

These people at the New York Times are scumbags with an agenda. Period.
They have no regard for truth and accuracy as long as their people are slick enough to not get exposed for their lying. That's why they have such admiration for liars like Clinton. What was it Bob Kerry said about Clinton's ability to lie?

I doubt if it'd be that much harder to get something else in DC either. I've been under the impression that one of the first things journalists typically do when they go to a new city is a vice run - ie find out where all the strip clubs, bars, red-light districts, massage palors, etc. are in town, especially if they're on an extended stay.

Here's the problem - we've gone on nothing but speculation about motive - he's gone from a simple fraud to a gay cokehead in a matter of a few posts with nothing but rank speculation. Let's at least try to stick to the facts until the rest of the story comes out.

If the New York Times works real hard on its truthfulness and accuracy for the next decade or so they might be considered as truthful and accurate as Matt Drudge.

How many white college dropouts were hired as reporters by the NYT at the same time as Blair?
