Look - I don't doubt Bush got special treatment. I don't doubt he had an alcohol and blow problem. I don't doubt CBS has some meat (truth) in their story.

What I do doubt is that the documents are real. What makes this so bad is that those documents served as the foundation to their "connect the dots" conclusion.
