How do you explain guys like Kristol, Barnes, Buchanan, Will, Brooks agreeing with me, not you and Drudge? It's not that they agree with you, they just don't want to go there. I haven't heard one of them yet speak on the issues that understand it as well as we do here. Most pundits want to protect their reputation. It is what they have to sell. They are being cautious until the whole story is out there. They have bits and pieces of it. Remember, the book isn't even out yet. I just watched Hannity discuss it on his show, and he is weak on the specifics that have been posted here. BTW, he is going to have the authors of "Unfit for Command" on his show tomorrow. First TV for them since the book was announced. I was negative on this at the start. But the testimony holds together too well for me not to be converted. Don't dig yourself into a hole on this one. I think you will end up agreeing with me.

Mike, the "Christmas in Cambodia" story of Kerry's is being blown to pieces all over the place. It'll be the wedge opening up a big can of worms. (Sorry for the rotten metaphor, but it's late. :-)) Anyway, since one piece of the SwiftVets' story is corroborated, it'll be a lot tougher to just attack the messengers and not examine their all their allegations to see what else might be true. Like LB said, a lot of the media guys don't want to go there, but they'll have to.
