    Isn't there anything more important than this?

    Don't you have anything more important to write about? Aren't there emabassies burning in the Middle East? Isn't that new report about Katrina really damning to the administration?

    For once, I believe Cheney...it was an accident. I think few people believe otherwise. So what that in the heat of the moment some people had different accounts? On the scale of lies being told, this is insignificant.
