Headlines That Should Not Be

Filed under: BOTW — @ 4:20:50 PM
From the "Will-the-editor-of-the-NRO-please-call-their-office?" Department

I saw this in yesterdays Best of the Web Today, and after a lively dissertation on the Virginia Earthquake, and Hurricane Irene, the author, James Taranto, pointed out the following headline in the “Too Much Information” topic:

Will Gay Marriage Turn Anthony Weiner’s Seat Red?
