IS THE WASHINGTON POST’S CHANDRA LEVY FASCINATION RACIST? Nonsense. Gary Condit was a Republican.

UPDATE: Oops, my mistake. Condit was a Democrat, as numerous readers point out. In that case, it must be racism!

ANOTHER UPDATE: Don Surber emails, “You’ve been reading A.P.” And sure enough, the story says, “Condit, a former Republican congressman from California’s Central Valley, has denied any involvement in or knowledge of Levy’s May 2001 disappearance at age 24, or her death. However, he acknowledged to investigators that they had an intimate relationship.”
