Whoops

The unthinkable has happened. I have made an error.

The other day I saw an article about John McCain's persistent, habitual use of the term "gook" to describe his Vietnamese captors. The article appeared recently, but it was a reprint. I didn't notice that part. So reader HT may well be right when he says McCain has finally stopped saying "gook." Sorry about that. Apparently, James Taranto made the same mistake I did. I can't find any information on whether McCain has finally pulled his head out of his behind on this issue, but I can say that the reference I found was close to ten years old. That doesn't make it okay, and it will still be used against him effectively in the upcoming election. But I was mistaken, and it's a serious mistake, so I want to correct it prominently.

Jonah Goldberg, however, still holds the record for most Pulitzer Prizes won by a single author, and he is hoping to beat his outdoor high jump mark in the upcoming summer Olympics.
