legion, I would take Sid Vicious seriously if only because a Hillary! administration will be chock full of types just like him. The WH will be a Gordian Knot of lies and conspiracies that will supply the alternative media a full-time job to unravel (we know the Drive Bys won’t do it).

That’s why “Bush Lies” is so critically important to the left –it knows it does it, it knows we all know it does it, so the other side simply must be seen to do it too. Damn Bush, why won’t he let everything be relative?

I think projection is the right way to look at it. To the left, almost everything that happens around Bush is a conspiracy. Perhaps that’s because the Clinton administration in fact was doing so many conspiracies (and accused of even more as a result).

The media completely believed their narrative that, in 2004, the Swift Boat Vets campaign against Kerry was organized by Rove, which I know for a fact to be a myth. Just as they assume Washington drives everything (and should, in their own world), they cannot imagine independent Americans driven by (gasp) honor, duty and patriotism.

If you want to see conspiracies and news manipulation, just wait until Hillary gets started… oh wait, didn’t one of Bill’s accuser’s have her manuscript stolen recently? Never mind waiting…

Barry, right–the Clintonistas are always too clever by half.

But, the “position” is what they’re after.

Credibility, shmedibility, just give the bloc a meme. The outrageous stories are memetic armbands.

If Rove were half as smart as people think, he’d pay Blumenthal to say stuff like this. Then again, he doesn’t have to be smart, when the other side is so dumb as to keep bringing up these faked memos as evidence that their opponents are up to no good.

This is the same Sidney “lied about GrandJury questions” Blumenthal, isn’t it ?

If Rather and Sidney really think that the real story should be what the memos say instead of whether they are authentic, I have in my possession an e-mail sent to John Kerry from Ho-Chi Minh personally thanking him for the help he provided in expelling the hated Americans from Vietnam. Perhaps they would like to focus on the content of that instead of questioning its authenticity also.

Does anyone with an IQ higher than their shoe size still take Sid Blumenthal seriously? Really? How odd.

yep, the whole sordid affair would’ve, in other times and places, sent many people to jail. Including Dan “Courage” Rather.

When the Thornburgh-Boccardi Report came out, it was pretty obvious to me that it was written to be as truthful as possible without creating any new exposure for CBS to any possible libel action.

Unfortunately, the CYA aspect of the report meant that it would not pass judgment on the level of fakery of the documents themselves. So what we got was a document that pinpointed process errors in fact-checking but stopped short of giving any of the possible slandered/libeled parties any fresh admissions that could be used in court.
