Ya know, this is truly appalling. CBS and Dan Rather are desperately trying to cover their fannies - they are digging a deeper hole for themselves. How amazing is it that the Heyward would make the statement that the information in the memos was "accurate" (not that the memos were authentic) and Rather is interviewing an elderly woman who once worked for Killian and is trying to prove that although the memos may have been forged, the information in them was the truth!
"OK,OK, so the memos were faked, but George Bush still hasn't answered the questions of the charges raised in those forgeries!" These people are mentally ill.
The only explanation that I can see for CBS's behavior is that if they admitt the documents are forgeries and give up their source, the Kerry campaign will be over. What other explanation can their be?
<<"OK,OK, so the memos were faked, but George Bush still hasn't answered the questions of the charges raised in those forgeries!" >>
You hit the nail on the head. What baffles me is the risk they took in presenting the memos as authentic. And the end, so what if Bush missed a physical? Let's pretend for a minute W was totally blitzed the night before and didn't want to take it ........................ SO WHAT!.......that's the part they don't get.
