"The "conditions under which the interview was conducted" weren't very distracting! It was a face-to-face interview by a report who, according to the National Review, has a positive attitude toward Bush."

LOL. You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Carlson himself used the conditions - the interview was conducted on a noisy small plane, he said - to dismiss Karen Hughes' denial that it happened the way Carlson told it. She was there, you see, and he claimed it was too loud on the plane for her to hear the exchange clearly.

As for "Carlson notes that while "the Larry King–Karla Faye Tucker exchange Bush recounted never took place" [RD, note: it never took place] on television...", are you having trouble with the language? It's English and plain as day. "on television" only implies that this portion of the Larry King interview never aired, not that it never happened. If it never happened, why is it published on CNN's website, dummy?

As for what National Review thinks of George Bush, frankly I don't give a da#n.

And you still haven't provided anything to corroborate Carlson's account. If you consider it a "kneejerk denial" to expect something so basic as a corroborating account of such a story, then you obviously have much lower standards of evidence than even Dan Rather. The only other person there, besides the accused mimic, says Carlson's account is wrong.
