Just when we thought it was safe to change out of our jammies, an interesting development from Power Line re the WATimes article on Kerry's 1997 flip-flop:
UPDATE: A transcript of the 1997 CNN show has surfaced via Lexis/Nexis, and, while it has some similar comments by Kerry, it does not include the language quoted above from King's tape. So what gives? I don't know; for now, we're suspending judgment. Congressman King was on the show himself, so it's not like someone handed him the tape in an envelope at a livestock show. No doubt we'll learn more soon. In the meantime, we won't add this one to Kerry's Hall of Fame collection of flip-flops.
Did CNN alter transcripts or did the Washington Times edit the material given them by King? Someone's in a bind here.
