OH MY GAWD, CAN NO ONE WAIT UNTIL A STORY IS VERIFIED WITH SOME DEGREE OF SERIOUSNESS?!

How many news stories so far in the last week have turned out to be wrong? Would it kill folks to just hold their judgement until the smoke clears and some of the bodies are trucked away?

Shach, this is not meant speciffically at you. I think peoples eagerness (and I-mockery is just a microcosm here) to be proven RIGHT about what they thought is symptomatic of "War as Game" theory. History does is not written "1 Hr. 15 Mn, ago" even though that looks wicked cool under the by-line on the internet.

Everybody needs to hold their damn horses.
