What do you do when a bad, scary man might be building an A-bomb? (NYT link) Answer: Announce to the world that he uses Viagra! Journalism at its finest. Go Drudge!
This post was deleted for the following reason:
So it's come to this, has it?
(and on preview, what jmd82 and folktrash said.)
If he doesn't like Viagra, I bet a Harry Potter broomstick would be right up his (ahem) alley.

Aside: Does anyone else just get a blank screen on that Drudge link? The other one too?

OK, I suck. A lot. As God is my witness, I'll never front page post again.

Don't be discouraged adrober. Just check more carefully for duplicates next time. From the response to the first link, some MeFiers clearly think this link is worthy of discussion!

folktrash ... let's not relish the unremarkable too much. This isn't slashdot, after all.

No, please, do be discouraged. It's not that hard to read the damned site before you post.

Nor is it hard to post messages slgging people off for a simple mistake. There ought to be some kind of law.

The biggest problem leading to double posts is vague fpps. There are a lot of posts in which you have to click the link to find ou what is going on....I certainly don't want to have to click on every damn link on this page. If the post doesn't grab my attention, I'm not going to waste time following the link just to find out what the hell is going on. (Granted, I *did* follow the link in the first post, even though it was to Drudge.)

I dont see the need for sarcasm. The Drudge report isnt doing anything most reporters do,that is choosing infotainment over information. At least Drudge scoops insightful "news" well ahead of his over funded network "competetors" and shares it FREE with the public! Any way, whoever takes dubbyas propaganda without a grain of salt is a MORON! BTW...we have nukes and while we still do who are WE to tell others thay can't join the "club" this is the type of attitude that PISSES the whole world off at the USA!
