Why the New York Times is Going Broke: Exhibit “A”

The following two sentences are taken verbatim from Saturday’s New York Times editorial:

[Tom] DeLay, the Texas Republican who had been the House majority leader, crowed that he had been “found innocent.” But many of Mr. DeLay’s actions remain legal only because lawmakers have chosen not to criminalize them.

This is a stunningly brilliant deduction, don’t you think?

Good Lord!

The only reason the New York Times editorial board hasn’t been thrown in the hoosegow for this op-ed is that lawmakers have chosen not to criminalize authentic frontier gibberish (an example of which is shown in the  video below):


The Times should change it’s motto to “all the news that’s bullshit to print.”
