Fake Congressman fools fake journalist
VTWoody sends us a link to the SFGate in regards to a Washington Post journalist who got sucked in by a fake Congressman Tweeting anti-Obama one liners. It seems that @RepJackKimble Tweeted that the war is costing taxpayers under Obama while Bush fought the war without spending a dime.
The Tweet came to the attention of Washington Post editorial writer Jonathan Capehart who shot back that it was a “stunning bit of ignorance” on the part of the “congressman”.
The journalist then discovered that the congressman didn’t exist, and apologized…sorta;
Yes, I got bamboozled by @repjackkimble but the point remains.

but the point remains……
What point, that you are a dumbass for believing a fictional politician said something they never really said???
Good thing I’m on muscle relaxers right now or my brain would be in a great big knot…
