Well there you have it. Now lets all get back to bashing France.

As fun as France bashing is, let's stay on this a little longer. A republican chair of a republican appointed investigation says against all expectations that the administration that appointed him is at fault one day, and then the next day says he didn't mean that, and includes the previous Democratic administration in his denial, and the republican press secretary says he never said anything of the sort.
You don't suppose that Kean spent a good part of the last evening fielding one angry telephone call after another? That perhaps someone started rattling whatever skeletons were in Kean's closet in his ear and pointed out how easy it would be to have Faux news start rattling them for a wider audience? Maybe he misspoke, the the smart money is against. Watch as the blame is shifted back one administration. You can see it being set up here. "Bush did it" becomes "Neither Bush nor Clinton did it". The obvious next step is "Clinton did it".
We are truly blessed to have this clear an opportunity to see revisionism at work.
