Goodnight, moon
Not to interrupt the collective winger circle-jerk about the Killian memos, but—
1. Bush still blew off his Guard duty, multiple times in multiple ways, and we still don't know why he didn't take his medical exam (Holden has a nice takedown here, on "Ask the Presidential Lackey," of all places.)
2. Rather sucks. He's sloppy. So? Par for the course with today's SCLM, as the liberals who lived through Whitewater and election 2000 already know. Read The Howler.
3. Funny, isn't it—all the Republican yammering for an investigation of the CBS memos, where all the content is true, and which only hurts Bush's image. Compare that to the forged yellowcake memos—you remember, where 1/2 an hour on Google took them down, without even looking at the kerning—where the content was false, and which only took us into The Big Sandy, at the cost of over a thousand American lives, so far. Priorties, huh?
Why would that be?
Because 4. It's all about working the refs. If the wingers can take down Rather, the rest of the SCLM will get a bad case of The Fear.
And Fear, as ever, is Inerrant Boy's friend.
