The WP is into creating faith. Remember, lies that cause people to believe, have faith are moral. It is said that “faith move mountains.” The WP is into mountain moving. Let’s help that statement out a little, “faith move mountains of lies.” And the lying can be done in such a way that the liar never tells an overt lie. That’s called prophaganda - the truth told in such a way it deceives. So without even reading the article I know what it says, Bush is as pure as the driven snow, has all his i’s dotted and t’s crossed, committed no crime but was a little politically inept.
If you haven’t read this yet give it a go. http://www.hoax-buster.org At least you will know how the lying thing works and the source of all that morality they continue to spout in the face of being caught in numerous lies.

Well, he is editor of the editorial page, not the paper as a whole. In an effort to be “balanced”, the Post rotates the OpEd editor, and typically alternates between a conservative voice (such as Hiatt), and a liberal one.
Perhaps a better measure of political leaning than a conservative piece from a conservative columnist, the Post endorsed Gore and Kerry..

Right Wing Media Critics: Seeing Things Which Aren’t There
MSM: “Today the President twisted his ankle while jogging.”
RWMC: See?! There they go again with their liberal bias! Trying to make the president look bad again. Why didn’t they point out all of those steps he had taken earlier when he didn’t twist his ankle? There were many more of these steps. They only point out the negatives. This was taken out of context. They’re trying to make him look bad! They always do this! The signs couldn’t be more obvious!
KB: Huh? What the hell are you talking about? They said he twisted is ankle. Everything else is emerging from your warped imagination.
RWMC: Well, of course this is what we’d expect YOU to say, you’re a liberal. You just can’t see it because you think like they do. It’s just sooo obvious. Ask Coulter, she’ll tell you.KB
KB: Actually, this was an example of conservative bias. Had the media told the entire story they would have pointed out that the reason Bush twisted his ankle in the first place was that he was trying to run a protestor off the jogging trail and twisted his ankle when he pushed the protestors wheelchair into the pond while screaming “So what if it was for oil!”
