Patterico reported over the weekend that lecherous child predator/director Roman Polanski’s Washington Post defender Anne Applebaum failed to mention in her latest pro-Polanski blog post that her husband is a Polish politician actively lobbying for Polanski’s freedom.

Applebaum now says she “had no idea that my husband, who is in Africa, would, or could do anything about it, as Polanski is not a Polish citizen.”

Er, except that, as Patterico points out, the very first sentence of her blog post links to a story mentioning that her husband was seeking clemency for Polanski.

How do you say “FAIL” in Polish?
