Do you people really believe that TNR really is gonna put its ass on the line for a guy whose lying and that they're gonna help cover up his lies by making stuff up? Of course now that this has turned into such a ridiculous (and manufactured) tempest in a teapot, what soldier is gonna come out and attach his name to something when he's obviously gonna have to deal with the heavy duty bullshit that will come streaming down the chain of command on his ass?"

Yeah-TNR will put his ass on the line for a lier-they've done it before.

"This is such a political witch hunt. Beauchamp has been filing stories from Iraq for a while. As long as they agree with his stories' politics, publications like the Weekly Standard were cheerleaders for this guy. As soon as the truth showed something different, they attacked him. Vilely."

Clearly, on this one, I had it totally wrong. He lied. I believed him. I was wrong. TNR was wrong (though I still believe they believed him as I did and didn't knowingly lie, just as I don't think they knew glass was lying at the time and addressed it when it came out).
