This is exactly the kind of politics that the American people want stopped. I realize it may happen on both sides, although I can't remember the last time an entirely false story was fabricated by the Democrats. Can you?
As long as the press lets politicians get away with this, politicians will continue to do it. Putnam will pay no price for this crap. He will actually be rewarded because pushing the story, no matter how false it was, worked. Unfortunately it wasted a lot of time in the media and our government servants have better things to do, like govern.

Thanks for sharing this follow up on the plane story. This generation of House Republican Leadership is unworthy of their standing. Putnam should be censored by the House for this bit of destructive work.
BTW, you got me into trouble yesterday. I was so outraged by this that I pounded on a Republican activist friend of mine. The best response he gave me was a statement from CBS News dated the 6th of Feb which I think was based on the Republican misinformation. I suppose I am on the road to perdition in his eyes...
