Rather contends not only that his report was true - "What the documents stated has never been denied, by the president or anyone around him," he says - but that CBS succumbed to political pressure from conservatives to get the report discredited and to have him fired.

Dan-the-Forger's suit is pure publicity stunt pot-banging, and a transparent attempt to reclaim some lost cred and to obscure his shameful forgery pedaling.

I see no sufficient grounds for a lawsuit; however, might not CBS have grounds for a so-called "SLAPP suite" here?

He’ll be sure to get it filed before an Obama or Clinton appointee and then the facts will mean nothing.

The docs are fakes. There is nothing to deny.

"pedaling" = peddling.

Spelling corrections. They are a good thing, right Dan?
