You want to attribute to me the idea that "it's anti-Bush, so it's biased", and that hasn't been the case. It's akin to the intellectually weak approach on this board of making frequent snide references to Bush's "lies", and then testily backing down, upon challenge, to "but he didn't explain it well enough for me". If your best defense of an assertion is "well, everybody knows that", while pointing to your cohorts, you're probably better off not making it.

Pot, kettle, black. You do this all the time. Yesterday, e.g., I posted something in which I referred to Paul O'Neill's book. You labelled it as partisan spin, and moved on. Hello? It's an account informed by the then-Treasury Secretary. Maybe you had some explanation or basis for this, but if you hide your light we don't see it shine.
