Courtesan David Gergen seconding Rabinowitz's statement: this has more to do with Rather's desire to break big stories than any bias against Bush. Yeah, right.
Rabinowitz now claiming Rather would have run with the same story if it had been about Kerry. Sure.
Shales blames "the system," rather than Rather, but "worth the risk." And that Rather "DIDN'T Lie"!! Fat POS.
Rabinowitz thinks Rather would have broken the same kind of story were is Kerry (yeah, right!)
Gergen's lesson to Rather and CBS: "get it first, but get it right." Wondering how "professionals" (not talking about Rather) don't get it right.
These three were a joke!
Did you hear that stupid Tom Shales from The Washington Post? He was insinuating that the Bush Administration planted this story and that Rather wouldn't lie but George W. Bush WOULD! Man, my blood pressure is up!
How the HECK do they know? And, more importantly, why should anyone take THEIR word for it? Let's get to the bottom of this and then we can all decide for ourselves!
