What I am thinking since the original source was AP there was no need to link to WP. Even though you found it at WP.
Which brings up a whole new thought..what the heck are you doing reading over at WP in middle of day..LOL
The story was on Drudge, who usually invokes a chorus of guffaws when listed as a source. Drudge linked it to WP. Guess I can't win for losin'!
