Good work by this San Antonio reporter. He actually interviewed new subjects and everything!

I'm pretty sure somebody at seeBS was probably diddled, Bonaparte.

Vulgar Slang.
To have intercourse with (a woman).
To practice masturbation upon.

Featured in the segment was former Texas Lt. Gov. Ben Barnes, a Democrat who claims he pulled strings to get Mr. Bush into the Guard in 1968.
To be "fair" shouldn't See BS have noted that Barnes denied such favoritism under oath a couple of years earlier? I would think so ... ;-)

Being from the area, I can tell you that the S.A.Excuse for News is liberally biased, so I'm suprised to see that even this short little piece made it into the paper. I never read the sorry thing, but I'm tempted to go fetch a copy to see how far back this piece is buried in the paper.

Let's put it this way. We'd get 20 inches of rain here, and the front page headline would be about how we're running out of water. The people just couldn't seem to vote down the Applewhite Reservoir enough times to shut them up.

LOL! Yep, that's one use of the word, SS.

From page 405 under heading "616. Deception - verbs" in Roget's International Thesaurus 3rd edn 1962...

    17. (deceive, as by cheating or trickery)hornswoggle [slang, U.S.], bilk, flimflam [coll.], flam, bite [chiefly coll.], diddle [dial. & slang]...

You learn something new everyday, huh? :-)

Nobody at CBS was deceived, hoaxed, tricked, duped, gulled, spoofed, hoodwinked, hornswoggled, flimflamed, diddled or suckered.

CBS tried to pull a fast one and got caught. Period.

The memos are obviously fraudulent. Dan Rather isn't so stupid as to knowingly -- oh, wait, I see your point.
