It's not a bug; it's a feature.

Why is it that whenever the left gets caught in a lie, they suddenly want to "move on." Didn't it ever occur to the people behind MoveOn.org that using that name for attacking Bush for lying is ironic and hypocritical?

As one commenter on Kevin Drum's blog writes:

"Fake but accurate." Good G[**]. A Republican coming up with a pantload like that to justify forged documents that favored Bush would be flayed alive and dragged across the Utah salt flats behind wild horses.

And Kevin Drum wouldn't be calling for us all to "move on."

Personally, I would prefer to move on, but I can't really say that it would be fair to do so when we know that, were this a Fox News Channel scandal, CBS would have clips of Tom Daschle and Ted Kennedy calling for congressional hearings on its FCC license.

The left is now reduced to arguing that Killian really thought what the fake memos say, so they aren't really forgeries, but "replicas" which means 're-enactments," like those scenes on history shows which depict someone else's opinion of what Colonel Killian might have said. So how do we know how much of the "news" on CBS is real and how much is "re-enacted?"
