I hate this stuff

From the Huffington Post:

Mitt Romney 2011 Tax Return To Be Released By October 15, Ed Gillespie Says

Romney, a former private equity executive who is one of the richest men ever to run for president…

WTF? One of the richest? Would that be one of the three richest or one of the 25 richest? The third richest or the 17th richest? Kennedy was certainly rich, and both Bushes, but what about LBJ? Or Carter?

The datastream is clogged with this kind of horsepuckey—coming from both sides of the political aisle—and somehow I expect it will remain until early November. 

Alas.
