I love this story.

Some goober Repub nutcase, running for the seat of disgraced, convicted,
sentenced, and serving-time-for-bribery Rep. (R) "Duke" Cunningham, put
a photo of a peaceful Iraq town on his website, citing it as an example
of how everything was hunky-dory in Iraq, despite all the biased
only-bad-news from Iraq coming from the so-called left-wing media.

The only problem is that it was a photo of Istanbul, Turkey.


It's Clinton's fault.

Hilary or Bill? :-)

I'm willing to cut the guy some slack. He probably got back from his
trip (which was evidently routed through Istanbul, Turkey), uploaded his
photos, and searched for one that supported his preconceived,
ideological case. I'm willing to believe that he FORGOT that it was
taken in Istanbul. I mean, no one, in this day and age of the Internet
and blogs and Google and all, could possibly believe that such a howler
would go undetected. Could they?

I'm willing to believe that he may not be dishonest, but merely incompetent.
