Insert Your Own Stimulus Plan Joke Here

Oops:
In a press release, the White House accidentally listed a sex line number for journalists seeking an "on-the-record briefing call with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and National Security Advisor Jim Jones to discuss the NATO summit."

But after dialing, a soft-voiced female recording that was clearly not Clinton asked for a credit card number if you "feel like getting nasty."
The White House quickly corrected the press release (duh), and the only reason this is worth mentioning is because Fox actually included this in its own story about Phonegate:
Asked for comment about this mishap, Deputy White House Press Secretary Bill Burton responded: "A corrected phone number on a press release is probably one of the stupider things FOX News has covered lately."
Ha!
