With how they had been duped by the TANG memos I am surprisde they did not bite at a story from a guy with an axe to grind.

Once bitten, twice shy and all that.

Remember how Fern kept insisting the TANG memo was authentic?

Once bitten, twice shy and all that.

Here is a quote from the story:

"The story would have been out a lot sooner if major media organizations hadn't been so reticent to produce important new revelations in the last month of a campaign," complains Baker. He refused to divulge the names of specific publications that balked but says they worried about being "tarred" as having it in for Bush, with some drawing a direct line to the scandal surrounding CBS and the bogus documents on Bush's National Guard service.

The bogus TANG memos were the cause of this not being followed, however, it was not big by any stretch of the imagination.

Bush's "failure" could have been that he didn't pursue more active duty.

Oh give it a rest everyone. liberals control news networks, conservatives control talk radio, individual newspapers can be controlled by either side. End of story.

This is subject to double interpretation.

Iraq was on Clinton's to do list.

This quote from the 2000 DNC platform might be important:

"In Iraq, we are committed to working with our international partners to keep Saddam Hussein boxed in, and we will work to see him out of power. Bill Clinton and Al Gore have stood up to Saddam Hussein time and time again. As President, Al Gore will not hesitate to use America's military might against Iraq when and where it is necessary."

Vietnam was 30 years ago and it's not an admission of AWOL.

Non-story.
