blogging elections viz open-source: a lie is a bug
In open-source software you have many eyes examining code, adding features, finding and fixing bugs. Likewise, this election year, you have many bloggers examining the candidate's statements for truth and contradictions. In this medium
a lie is a bug
. In this medium, fixing a bug means exposing the lie "swiftly" and repeatedly. E.g., Cheney's claim not to have met Edwards before the debate. (Cheney's best line of the night, unfortunately - for him - not true, like so much else from this administration.)Harold Carr
