If the questions aren't pursued this will all be brushed off as a right wing smear jobAnd, if the questions ARE answered, it will all be brushed off as a right wing smear job.
There is, unfortunately, ZERO evidence that Dr. Rice is interested in politics.
Mrs. Clinton is consumed by it.

I disagree. There is only a minority of Americans that identify themselves as liberal. But if is is shown that the majority of Americans that aren't political, or well informed, were systematically lied to by the press, then maybe the blinders will come off. My father, elderly man that he is, blindly believed that Kerry was a decorated veteran and the President a no show based on his news intake from the nightly news. The fact that the President is several years younger than Kerry and at the time of service we were winding down our involvement isn't reported. So he is left with the mistaken impression that the President is a draft dodger and Kerry is a war hero. My father denounced the Swift Boat ads as Republican dirty tricks because the media portrayed it as such. But if he were shown that the Swift Boat Veterans were correct in every way and that Kerry did receive a less than honorable discharge and was involved with the Vietnamese Communists, well he will know he was played a fool and the lesson will be learned. He will never trust these outlets again.
Now magnify that thousands of times. How many voted for Kerry and how many voted against President Bush? Based on the vicious slant of the media?
Isn't it about time to take back the truth in reporting? Information is moving faster than ever. We need to make sure it is accurate and not the left's propaganda. Then no one can so easily dismiss it.
