Or maybe he wasn’t. From this morning’s Post: MORE »

Earlier this month, we reported on the highly suspicious “notice of withdrawal” (hehe) filed by William Bode, former lawyer to Jessica Cutler, the Blogger Formerly Known as Washingtonienne. Now we bring you this update. MORE »

Earlier today, we blogged about New York State Senator Ada Smith, who has been accused of assaulting a former aide by throwing hot coffee in her face and pulling at her hairpiece. We were then deluged with reader mail about additional misdeeds by Senator Smith. MORE »

Here at Wonkette, we own up to our mistakes. Earlier today, we stated that Robert Steinbuch, the former lover of Jessica Cutler who is now suing her for invasion of privacy, teaches at the same law school where Bill Clinton — another man with a thing for interns — once taught. MORE »

A correction from the Washington Post: MORE »

Our gossip-obsessed sister reports today that the Times Magazine is copping to inadvertently altering a picture of former Virginia governor Mark Warner: “The jacket was charcoal, not maroon; the shirt was light blue, not pink; the tie was dark blue with stripes, not maroon.” In other words, Warner was clad in his inside-the-beltway dullest.

Best correction ever: MORE »

This may soon be moot, since early returns suggest that Tom Malin has lost to Jack Borden in the Democratic primary for Texas District 108. After today, we’ll have to find some other ex-prostitute running for office to make fun of.

But here at Wonkette, we’re all about accuracy, so we’d like to make this correction anyway. To the extent that any of our prior coverage suggested that Malin was an ex-gay ex-prostitute — i.e., someone who was rejecting both his past life as a prostitute and homosexuality — we apologize. It appears that Malin is still gay; he’s just no longer a prostitute.

After the jump, two reader emails on the subject.

Here’s our favorite correction in this morning’s Post: MORE »

Yesterday we suggested that Tom Malin, a candidate for the Texas state legislature, has a bigger problem than his history as a gay prostitute. And what might that problem be? His sordid past as a top seller of Mary Kay cosmetics, which one Wonkette reader dismissed as “not highbrow.”

Well, disparaging Mary Kay cosmetics may be the most controversial thing we’ve done all week. After the jump, check out our extended correspondence on this tremendously important topic. (Money-back guarantee: it’s more fun to read about than the Dubai ports deal.)
