Is Capitol Hill Blue a reliable news source?

[devilgrrl]

Some of the stories, especially the ones concerning Shrub's mental health sound almost too good to be true.... count me as skeptical.

1. Lemme put it this way, Drudge Report is more on the mark

which should say ALOT!

From their FAQ

Can I write something for Capitol Hill Blue?
Good question. Can you? Blue welcomes submissions with the understanding that we may read it, we may just laugh at it, or we may toss it in the bytebox so that it never darkens our hard drive again. If we do use it, we'll pay you what everybody else gets around here: nada. Just send it to [e-mail] and take your chances.

Don't you take anything seriously?
Nah, we leave that to the politicians (and some of our readers). They take everything, including themselves, far too seriously.

and was told it's on par with Weekly World News or The Onion.

3. The Onion is obvious satire...

Reading Capitol Blue is not very apparent... So in that sense it is a bit more scary...

4. It's Doug's site - and Terry wrote article - and Doug "stands by Terry's

article"

Dry Drunk will be heard re Bush from any person trained in medicine.

The rest - as the story says - can be proven by releasing the medical records.

Until Bush releases those records - what reason does one have to believe it untrue?

5. It's what we WISH were true

Unfortunately, it has a very spotty record
