UPDATE: Politico's Michael Calderone reports:

"The video was a satirical piece that lampooned people of all stripes," a Post spokesperson tells POLITICO. "There was a section of the video that went too far, so we have removed the piece from our website."

        Why? MM shouldn't remove it. It should serve as a reminder to how corrupt and stupid the Washington Post has become.
