The piece sucks, its a hit piece on John Kerrys enemies.

McCall says he's not surprised Hoffmann doesn't remember. "He did a lot of things," he says. "To me it was a searing moment in a young career. To him it was just one more moment of chewing someone's ass."

Ha Ha Ha... Here we go with the searing again.

When it comes to the media, you take the good and the bad. Certain messages are evident in this piece, and for those open-minded, it comes through.

BTW, check out the new flick "The Forgotten." Messages re core convictions are all throughout the movie. A definate reinforcement --whether intended or not-- of why it's important to possess core convictions *and* support those who act on their core convictions.
