TankerKC is obviously intelligent and thoughtful and directly belies the MSM image of their "adversaries" as pajama people. (chuckle) His remarks about Dan Rather, CBS and your observations as to how this reflects on the MSM in general are on the mark. People have less and less faith in major media outlets and their sources. It's not just a question of bias. It is the impression that many journalists and their employers will place politics before ethics, even when they must know their omissions, hypocrisies and double standards are obvious and will be exposed. In CBS's Rathergate, we have watched a major network news organization create news with apparently phony documents that they did not even seriously vet. Tough times to be a MSM journalist, for sure. Satisfying times to be a blogger, I'll wager, to have a hand in upholding the image of journalism in general by filling in the many deficiencies. Nice interview, Pat.

You have more investigative abilities than all of CBS News. Of course, that's not saying much, but still...great job. Excellent job. You have more investigative abilities than all of CBS News.

Any one who has read the first chapter of Stolen Valor knows that forgerys were created by using real order codes, but the order codes were for OTHER peoples metals. You just can't trust liberals, you have to actually investigate every nit picking detail. Check that Reg out please.<p>Hannity call Garry Killian back and ask him what that there Reg is about!</p> All right now we need some one to dig up some old USAF Reg manuals and find out what that Reg that was used REALLY says!

Sorry back to law school for you. Here's all you need to know: One candidate served; the other ran. End of story.

Your candidate is behind in the polls and is despised by the millions of veterans he laughingly thought would support him. How much worse can it get than for a candidate to run as a war veteran and then discover (gasp) that the vast majority of war veterans think he is unqualified to serve as Commander in Chief? I mean, geeze, I almost feel sorry for the guy. Lose what? Your candidate is behind in the polls and is despised by the millions of veterans he laughingly thought would support him.
