An old adage

It's an adage that something "too good to be true" probably isn't. CBS has embarrasingly had to learn the lesson again.

"It was unclear last night if Mr. Burkett had told Mr. Rather that he had been misled about the documents' provenance or that he had been the one who did the misleading."

Truth is its own defence. And there is plenty of truth laying around that is being ignored by the current administration that the rest of us can pick up and use to bring it down. I'm glad the Killian memo issues were pursued with such vigor since it sets a clear standard for both sides. And under that standard we need to be sure that we are armed and ready to oppose those who have only imaginary weapons.
