It's The Stuff The Blogsophere Is Made Of...

On a North Carolina news show this morning, Dan Rather defended his infamous Texas Air National Guard story–and the documents–as being “absolutely true“. [Update: Audio added to original post.]

I wonder if the host asked him about page 175 of The Thornburgh Report. To which Dan could probably simply reply, “‘Scuse me while I whip this out“, I suppose.

Man, when liberal Slate–of all Websites–published an essay titled, “Dan Rather: The anchor as madman“, they knew of whence they spoke.

I’d love for someone interviewing Rather to ask him his thoughts of the actions of President Bush’s 2004 opponent while he was in the reserves in the early 1970s.

Update: Another familiar face from 2004 checked in as well this week.
