Post Protection

"Questions abound," says the Washington Post in its editorial this morning ominously headlined "Who is Gov. Palin?"

I'll say. The editorial even takes Palin to task for failing to sign "the anti-tax pledge pushed by Grover Norquist's American Taxpayers Union." While it's nice to see the Post put in a nice word for Grover's Taxpayer Protection Pledge, it would be nicer still if the paper knew that Grover's organization is named Americans for Tax Reform.

In fact, there's no such thing as the "American Taxpayers Union." There's a National Taxpayers Union. Questions abound about what the Washington Post doesn't know.
