Actually Dana, I don't even remember how this came to be a topic of discussion. I just got caught up in the double standard.
It is only important as an indicator of Kerry's character if: 1. He is denying he said that 2. He lied in what he said 3. He was wrong in what he said because he did not research the statements Outside of that, I could care less. And at this point, I don't see any of 1-3 being true.

Don't you think that this would be something it was important to bring to people's attention?
