Two days later and Capehart is STILL trying to push his smear campaign.

He is getting schooled on Twitter and in the WaPo story comments. I haven't seen one tweet or comment in support of him and his lie.

WaPo article for comments:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/wp/2016/02/11/stop-sending-around-this-photo-of-bernie-sanders/


Click on any of his recent tweets and see the replies. What a tool.

My post to this weasel...

@CapehartJ You certainly picked THE wrong topic to play games with. Admit you are wrong and stop such slimy attacks on Sanders.

Hard to believe that he has such "brass" and arrogance to take a dump on Bernie, especially on this topic.

I'm guessing someone within the Clinton campaign pointed him to the edited archives of the photo and ran with without any knowledge of the edit history.

Now he does not want to reveal the source of his story is from within the Clinton campaign. It would look exactly like the hit job it is and put blame in the one place he does not want it to go.

He may have to in order to save his career though.

But he can retract and apologize without revealing that info. He just keeps on keepin' on though. Like a stubborn child.

They're running in, dropping a turd, and sprinting for the exit when proven wrong, though.

Which is pretty much their MO everywhere.
