I see that the New York Times is able to dig up “secret” files about Czech President Vaclav Klaus activities from the 1980’s when he is about to ascend to the Presidency of the EU. However, when it comes to the running for the Presidency of this country, it was clear that the media’s due diligence was not has thorough for the President elect.

Gee, why is that?

[April15]

Tell that to Dan Rather.Perhaps you missed the part about a secretary who wrote the letter in question confirming what it said.

So you're trying to claim that a proven fraud is true. It's like you liberals are living in a fantasy world.

So you're trying to claim that a proven fraud is true. It's like you liberals are living in a fantasy world.I am sorry but the item has never been proven either way. But the evidence does side that Bush failed.
