How The Mighty Have Fallen

You've all probably read the Rush got punk'd on the Obama thesis hoax. He refuses to apologize, but then that's just the kind of guy he is. Here's the NY Daily News story on it.
But this made me laugh out loud:
The original post with the fabricated details about Obama's college thesis was written as a satire on a humor blog.
An obscure blogger, Michael Leeden, mistakenly picked it up, reporting the satirical post as fact, and then Limbaugh ran with it on his national radio show Friday.
Leeden has since apologized.
You know the neocons have have hit rock bottom when one of their premiere propagandists is reduced to the status of obscure blogger...
