"Now, when the other one is in trouble, they're piling on. It's unfair, uncalled for and not the way that grown men should act," Hewitt said.

With all due respect Mr. Hewitt, out here in the real world, one of the first things we learn is that life is not fair. It's not supposed to be fair. Fair makes people weak. We grow & are made better people by struggling. Thinking the world should treat you fairly makes people expecting it, demanding it sound like a whiny child.

RE: "Everything they said about Bush is true; they just haven't found the evidence yet." - Dale Channer, 34, florist, the Bronx.

Yep, typical Leftie SCUMBAG, looking for evidence to fit the unwarranted smear! What a complete SCUMBAG.

That is slander Mr. Channer!

What the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth have said, is based on their own first hand experience with Kerry, and actual true documents, yet you will not believe it....what is that called, when a person refuses to believe the truth to believe a lie?

New Yorkers were generally forgiving of Dan Rather's running a story based on unproven documents that attacked President Bush.

So forgiving that they rewarded him with the dead-last position for his time slot, even behind syndicated sitcoms.

Steve Kroft nearly single-handedly won the Dem nomination for Clinton with his fawning interview in 1992. He is the last person to be complaining about his colleagues' news "standards."

There is a large difference between 60 minutes Sunday and Wednesday. It's called Dan Rathers. He has always been the one newsman who I dislike the most. I only watch his regular newsbroadcast because it was for years the only station that comes in here in my corner of downeast Maine. I like all of those reporting for 60 minutes Sunday night with the exception of Mike Wallace. I mute him out or go back to playing with the dog while his portion is on. By the way, what does STFU mean?

It's nice to see Dan Hewitt in a lather. This is the guy who foisted the Clintons on us when he featured them on 60 minutes, an important forum---at the time---to launch their candidacy.

The Clintons proceeded to lie and lie and lie.

Years later in his auto bio, Hewitt admitted he knew they were lying but put them on anyway.

This is so sweet!! It's about time those pompous blowhards were taken down a peg or two, and the fact that they brought it on themselves makes it all the MORE sweet!!

The only difference between Dan Rather and the rest of the 60M crew is that he goofed up and went with obvious forgeries, instead of quality IBM Selectric typwritten forgeries.


STFU means Shut The F**k Up.

What has Chris Wallace had to say about all this?

Howie Carr has him on every Friday to talk about the upcoming Fox News Sunday. Last Friday (or the week before), he said he just wanted to make a statement -- sounding kind of sheepish -- that "no one in the Wallace family had anything to do with it."

Hesheit has paved his way into hell with what he did for the Clintoons.

Lowlife Hewitt co-opted a bunch of people putting on the lying Clintons.
