| | The Washington Post publishes a free, shorter, easy-read newspaper each morning called Express for commuters on Washington, DC's Metrorail. In the back few pages of the paper is the "Blog Log" section, a cross-section of short blog posts that the blog editor, Dan Caccavaro by name, reads and considers noteworthy. His commentary this morning on a particular blog, however, was horribly misleading and calls into question both his intelligence and objectivity. The piece "Peace Gets God Angry" quotes from RepublicOfT.com: "These are the people meeting with the White House on Middle East policy? There are two possibilities here: Either the Bush administration is humoring the likes of CUFI and Apostolic Congress, or the inmates are running the asylum."
Caccavaro's commentary then explains: "Republicoft.com is scared by meetings of Bush officials and 'Christians United for Israel,' which supports war in the Middle East for biblical reasons" [my emphasis]. This is, of couse, a gross misrepresentation of what CUFI stands for and believes. I put in a call to Mr. Caccavaro this morning, but received his voicemail. Updates to follow. |
