24. The Washington Post is only good for one thing...

... to be used as a birdcage liner. And that's only on the condition that your parakeet can't read. It would be unkind to subject a sweet little bird to the witless, partisan drivel vomited forth by the WAPO editorial board. Those malicious clowns don't even try to hide their deceitful double standard anymore.
Apparently, "integrity" is now a dirty word in the WAPO newsroom ever since "Bozo" Bezos bought the paper. When the Graham family ran it, The Washington Post was a bastion of truth in reporting, but not anymore. Now it's even lower than the bird shit a discerning parakeet drops on it. Even Kathryn Graham would defecate on it from on high, were it possible.
