When 250 former Swift Boat veterans claimed John Kerry exaggerated his Vietnam service, the media yawned and said the sworn statements of these men was not enough to go public with the story.
But when 12 terrorists claimed that US soldiers flushed a book down a toilet, even if it is a physical impossibility, the MSM went with the story immediately, even if it would hurt America's war effort and possibly lead to the deaths of innocents.
So it is nice to know to the MSM that the word of a terrorist is worth more then that of a score of servicemen.
Couldn't possibly have said it better than you, my friend. Bump.........if sadly.
As long as it slams the Bush admin it's big news to the MSM.
Fact checking and vetting be damned. They have an agenda to serve. And the truth is just an annoyance.
