WASHINGTON POST ARTICLE (REAL INTERESTING)

This is from a liberal paper.

God, you guys will fall for anything. That took all of 10 seconds to Google.

It has apparently been going around since 2011 so if you get it just beware that it was never in the Wash Post and this columnist never worked for them either. See Wa Po article below.

Here's the Wash Post response:

Reader Meter: The Hermanator and ‘The Post’s’ Matt Patterson
By Patrick B. Pexton Wash Post.

Two things strike me this week. One is the lack of e-mails and phone calls about GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain, who is in the middle of trying to explain allegations about sexual harassment while he was head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s.

The other is a parcel of e-mails wondering if someone named Matt Patterson works at The Washington Post, and asking if he wrote an anti-Obama satirical screed for The Post that is making the rounds of the Internet. The answer is, no, he doesn’t and he didn’t. This is not the first time I’ve received a round of e-mails about some anti-Obama rant allegedly written by someone from The Post.

On the Hermanator, I received 11 e-mails about the GOP presidential candidate, on a variety of topics, including the photos that The Post runs of him with online stories.

The mysterious Matt Patterson might be the Matt Patterson who contributes to the Examiner newspaper here in D.C. and who works for the conservative Capital Research Center. His work has appeared in The Post, but not this work.

His article starts with the old saw, “Historians will look back in awe at…” In this case they’ll wonder if the election of Obama was “a baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle Ages.”

I always thought the witch craze was in Salem, Mass. Never mind.

The last one of these that made the rounds was an anti-Obama piece supposedly by a nonexistent Post reporter by the name of Dale Lindsborg about why the president never puts his hand on his heart when the national anthem plays and why he doesn’t wear the flag lapel pin. This, too, was fiction, debunked by several urban legend sites.

When I get these, I usually check right away, find out that the reporter is fictitious or working somewhere else, and write back to the e-mail correspondents.

I understand how Americans got caught up in the emotion and excitement of Obama's 2008 campaign, too many people blindly jumped on the band wagon with out bothering to examine the facts. Obama promised the world to every special interest group that would pay any attention to him and he won their hearts on the campaign trail with well delivered speeches and a rising wave of popularity.

It's 2012 and Obama has not delivered what he promised from the campaign trail in 2008. It's time for America to hold Obama accountable for his failures to deliver on the promises he made. It's time for America to hold Obama accountable for not working with both parties of Congress to pass critical legislation in the past four years. It's time for America to hold Obama accountable for the trillions of dollars of deficit his administration has added to our national debt, more than any other president has ever racked up in a single term. Four more years of Obama will damage our Nation, perhaps beyond repair. This could be the end of the Nation as we know it.

This could be the end of the Nation as we know it.

Ding Ding Ding Ding! We have a NEW drama queen!

It's time for all Americans to live off the dole.

Obama's vision for the next four years is to plant 100,000,000 new Dole Trees.
