"everyone says this thing is going nowhere, but it seems to command a lot of posts and replies"

It intrigues many of us because we suspect collusion between the media and anti-Bush elements within government. It also intrigues us because it is one of the more classic demonstrations of media bias and feeding-frenzies in recent years. And, paradoxically, it fascinates us that such a minor event should have acquired such magnitude in the media's eyes.

you can call me what you will, but ideologues are fallable, no matter which side you stand on
