This is basically what people said Karl Rove did to Dan Rather. How did you feel about that? No, that's what the Left tried to say to defend Rather. There was no way, since the proof that Rather lied was pretty clear. I have not met one a lefty in quite a long time that even mentions Dan Rather. Link ?

Perhaps your tin foil hat needs adjustment. What's the frequency, Kenneth? I don't even know the amplitude. But I do know that CBS, NBC, and ABC are charter members of the LR media, so anything at all is possible. Oh no!!! That's not good for your paranoia is it???

There's another way to look at it. It might have been a plant story by the WH, so they could come back and discredit it. Make the story go away, because they could point to this story as simply say "see, it's all a lie, they are just making things up". I'll bet that's exactly what happened! Link? LOL

This is fun to watch. We got right-wingers here Arguing with each other.. Because there's no lefties for them to hate. Or the ones that are here are on on ignore. Maybe I should just shut up and let you guys carry on. All this right wing testosterone here, but no lefties. You guys got to change this somehow.

That doesn't make it alright, of course, since fact checking should have uncovered a falsehood. I never found any proof for certain but planting a false story for the purpose of embarrassing someone is consistent with Karl Rove's basic approach. I see that it is okay for you to suggest that the White House did this to 60 Minutes when it's occupied by a Democrat, but not okay for someone else to suggest it when the White House was occupied by a Republican. The sad truth is that this is modern politics. Both the Republicans and the Democrats are untrusthworthy and immoral. It's a fool who believes this behavior is confined to one side of the aisle or the other.

If CBS failed to adequately fact check the matter then the responsible individuals should be fired. Reporters that aren't truthful are valueless. Sort of like leaders that aren't truthful. So, davo, you on the impeachment bus? Obama has certainly lied about his signature health care failure enough to warrant it, by your standard. Surely you jest that davo would consider an impeachment. Obama's lies were a misunderstanding.

Dan Rather did himself in when he decided to air what he about George Bush. He got to retire and do well.

Let's knock off the personal attacks and baiting, folks. I'm sorry. But I consider it part of the debate. Don't you think the anger from these people is part of the debate? It's always been my problem with the right wing. Do not argue with the moderators. What they say, goes.
