As far as connections to Rove, that's easy. The Swifties were bank rolled by a Bush supporter.

omigawd, you mean they got money from a Republican?!

So a Republican gave them money, so what? you couldn't expect a Democrat to do it. George Soros and Moveon.org gave out millions in that election, I don't notice you claiming that it invalidated the testimony of those who received it.

rofl. Like I said before, and as is still the case no matter how many times you deny it, these men had names and established careers in other things than politics. This wasn't a single nutcase flogging a crackpot theory (which incidently more closely describes Bill Burkett and his miraculously found TANG memos) - this was a whole bunch of respectable men, the kind whose testimony would have weight in a court of law.

The contrast between how the media handled the combined Swiftvet testimony and how it handled the forged photocopies that Burkett handed to 60 Minutes couldn't be starker. The rules of evidence are clearly vastly different, depending which party you are attacking.
