For the better part of the past year, the editors of the Washington Post have been generically a-screech with worry over the deficits, and their insistence that the Obama administration needs to get serious about them. Well, today, the editors seem to have finally realized that the alternative is not much better, and that the GOP may actually not be all that serious about taming them either:

Are House Republicans serious about dealing with the deficit? You could listen to their rhetoric - or you could read the rules they are poised to adopt at the start of the new Congress. The former promises a new fiscal sobriety. The latter suggests that the new GOP majority is determined to continue the spree of unaffordable tax-cutting.

1. Sadly not true. The front page on my Wash Post today contained a puff piece on Boehner's austerity.

2. It is quite possible they suffer from the Barbara Bush Syndrome

I don't want to bother my "Beautiful Mind" with all that ugliness (ie truth/reality)

3. I think the GOP writes their "news" stories for them while they spend their time suffering the net.

4. I think you're right

With all the spelling, grammar, and syntax errors in the Post as of late, it looks like tea baggers are the new editors~

5. THis is horseshit. WaPo is a right-wing rag, barely more credible than

the Washington Times are the Sludge Report.
