…heeeeeeeehehehehehehehheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeheheheheheheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeheheheheheeeee…

 

That crazy libertarian Gary Johnson, he’s so dumb, doesn’t even know what Aleppo is.

 

The New York freaking Times, with the INTERNET right there in front of them and nothing else to do, stumbled over that same question TWICE while making fun of Johnson.

 

Instant karma, the best kind:

*         Silly goofballs.  These are the people we rely on for accurate news?

With the new Powell bombshell, Julian Assange’s anticipated dump will be very hard pressed to top it.  Meanwhile, at least now Johnson is getting *some* media coverage, even if it is ridicule for not knowing something from memory that they missed twice with no time pressure and the internet in front of them.

When I look at the current scoreboard I am reminded of my old cross country coach, who commented:

If you think you can, you might be right.  If you think you cannot, you are right.
