This was the report that was going to be released \u201csooner, rather than later.\u201d Glad I didn\u2019t hold my breath. Anyway, Tom Shales, over at the Washington Post gets just plain foolish<\/span><\/a> as he tries to discuss the issue. Bummer Dietz <\/span>corrects him<\/span><\/a> handily. Hattip: <\/span>Kerry Spot<\/span><\/a>. No one has addressed the fact that Shales is simply promoting a lie a bit further in the piece, though, when writes about a soldier questioning Rumsfeld, but fails to mention that the soldier was prompted by a reporter who made sure the question was asked, and then bragged about the set-up. Shales is simply intellectually dishonest, but that\u2019s a problem with a large percentage of a press that is largely held unaccountable for much of anything.<\/span>
<\/span>
I\u2019m still trying to figure out how a press that has spent 4 years ridiculing the president as \u201cincurious\u201d had \u2013 and still has \u2013 absolutely NO curiousity at all about Lt. Kerry\u2019s unreleased military\/medical\/discharge records and fitness reports\u2026why they were so completely incurious as to his refusal to sign the standard form 180 or to engage in any direct Q&A regarding the charges of the Swift boat vets\u2026but it\u2019s a funny old world, I guess. One candidate released everything and had every page so thoroughly scrutinized that a retired dentist was even nagged into verifying his signature on a dental exam form\u2026one candidate released only what he chose to release and nothing was checked out or questioned. Yeah\u2026funny old world. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
