This is classic leftist deflection, and obfuscation at its best (bringing Harry Reid, Judge Saad, etc. etc. into it). Just admit that Newsweek fucked up and be done with it. Why can't you do that? Could it be because anything that's printed that in any way, shape, or form portrays the US Government, the military, or the current administration in a negative light is embraced and defended by the left (facts be damned - *cough*Dan Rather*cough*).
