I may be the lone dissenter, but I think that Bush should go and face them head on. I think that Kerry looked like such a whiner in the face of the swiftvet adds! Bush has had to deal with Michael Moore, Farenheit 9/11, pop culture icons, mainstream press coverage, and the original CBS document mess. I think he should just go in there, stand strong, and take down both Kerry and CBS.

I agree to some extent, but...this may be the WH's way of keeping the story up front. The media would love nothing more than to bury this story, and even if it dies down, this snub almost guarantees a rehash of the CBS events during the debates...when many more people will be paying attention.
