"It dawned on me that I was present at the birth of a political jihad."

That's kind of like meeting someone for the first time at their high school graduation and thinking you had seen them born. You're quite the hard-core investigative journalist, Mapes.

"It dawned on me that I was present at the birth of a political jihad."

She's been part of the leftist political jihad for so long that it just outrages her when anyone dares to answer back. It's all 'new' and 'frightening' because she's been raised in the MSM left-wing echo chamber and is convinced of her own purity and sanctity. Get the message, Mary Mapes: you and Dan Rather are SCUM, you engaged in fraudulent and what should be CRIMINAL activities to try to bring down a president you oppose, and in a just world you would be a pariah from any MSM or professional position for the rest of your sorry life.
