An old grifter I once knew told me that in order to sell the con, the buyer has to want to believe it.
I think CBS and Rather did.
Do you think they would, say, put up docs reputedly from Kerry's military records provided by operatives of the SBVFTT blasting Kerry without verifying them or the witnesses, thoroughly??
I don't think so.
Dan should be given the Luger and a single bullet, and left in a room alone to do the honorable thing.
CBS should hire Brit Hume or Tony Snow to replace him.
