Heard Something Really Great on Hardball Tonight

I've been really busy this week, gotta bunch of deadlines to meet, so I haven't been able to post a lot.

So when I get home I turn on Hardball, and there's one of those mini-reports by David Schuster before Chris Matthews speaks with his guest(s). Well, this was a report about the "missing" 288 tons of Iraqi weapons and how it's been playing in the final days of the campaign.

Cut to His Thugness Lord Dubya saying that Kerry was lying about the weapons (takes one to know one, eh?), and that the Senator was undermining our troops.

Cut to Schuster who flat-out said "This is not true," and said that it was Bush who blamed the troops, and that the IAEA had been notified by someone in the Iraqi government earlier this month about the missing weapons.

Again, Schuster said "This is not true"--none of the phony "balance" that passes for news these days.
