Calling the Kettle Black

In the recent and ongoing hoo-ha about the "military record" of one George W. Bush, some questions have arisen regarding the validity of documents submitted to and reported on by CBS. I find it interesting that the House Majority Whip from Missouri had this to say:

House Majority Whip Roy Blunt, R-Missouri, said he collected signatures from 39 colleagues on a letter sent to the network calling for a retraction and asking CBS News to reveal the source of the documents.

"Clearly, their sources aren't what they need to be, or they're not willing to reveal even the nature of who their sources are," Blunt said. "It's hard for me to believe ... that CBS, an organization with a long and distinguished history in journalism in the past, would be willing to stand by this story when virtually everybody else has questions about it."

Kinda funny, since the Bush administration has stood by its story(ies) regarding why the US needed to invade Iraq - when virtually everybody else has questions about it.
