“Bari” is a nickname for the baritone saxophone.

Is it as dark as when you were found lying about Bush’s Texas Air NG records, Dan?

“Rather, 93, served as CBS Evening News anchor from 1981 to 2005. He stepped down following the airing of a 60 Minutes II report on President George W. Bush’s service in the National Guard. The network retracted the story after it was found that documents used in the piece could not be authenticated. But after he left CBS News, Rather defended the report and noted that no one had shown that the documents were fraudulent.”

Not shown to be fraudulent? Is he parsing words here or just reversing norms and demanding someone prove their innocence instead of requiring the documents to be proven fake?
I though Buckhead was pretty convincing and thorough.

Dan Rather was a dark day in CBS news after that Word doc he tried to foist on the public RE: Bush.

Dan should know. He, for years, was the epitome spokesperson for the ‘Dark Side’.
