Worse Than Watergate?

Of course it is, as Frank Rich points out. When you're shameless and dishonest at the core it really doesn't matter. When your supporters care nothing about truth, and only about winning, it doesn't matter.

It's nice to see Rich mention Judith Miller's role in the "aluminum tubes" story. As noble as her actions are with regard to the current story, her role in the tubes story was equally ignoble. I believe she helped allow this administration lie to the public. It's hard for me to forget Dick Cheney referencing her story on Tim Russert's show as proof of Iraq's intentions.
