Looks normal, right? We've been seeing shots like this for the past week or so, right?
Wrong!
I came across this picture while browsing an archive of Associated Press wire photos. The date this photo went out? 18 July, 2006! So, when you're looking of pictures claiming to show fresh damage like the one below, just remember:âYou are not getting the full story from the news wires!
Then again, the Benighted Buffoons in the press would never lie to us... would they?
I'm going to file this under "time shifting." Keep posted, more updates are surely to come!
(My hat's off to Powerline Blog for breaking this story!)
