A new FR thread has a Joe Lockhart reply (source is DU but it's still interesting reading).

“In a shameless attempt to cover up its failure to secure 380 tons of highly explosive material in Iraq, the White House is desperately flailing in an effort to escape blame. Instead of distorting John Kerry’s words, the Bush campaign is now falsely and deliberately twisting the reports of journalists. It is the latest pathetic excuse from an administration that never admits a mistake, no matter how disastrous.”

I believe Lockhart sent that message in an e-mail to the National Review Online Corner.

Oh, dear. Joe doesn't understand there was nothing to secure, does he. Or is he lying. How to decide, how to decide....Gosh, having mulled it over, I think he's just flat out lying.

BWA HA HA HA!

"Falsely and deliberately distorting the words of journalists?"

Turnabout is fair play, methinks. Both on Kerry and the journalists.
