So far I have watched four cable news interviews with Kitty Kelley, author of The Evil Clampetts. And here is what I have learned about her book.
Not much.
The interviewers are all working off of the same talking points, the tone and thrust of their questioning so similar it's as if they all received the same fax from the Republican National Committee.

They grill her on sources, their authenticity, whether she spoke to that person directly or relied on hearsay. And in the interviews I've seen, Kelley has been cucumber-cool and composed, going up to the brink of the available evidence and no further, refusing to back down from her claims of Dubya's drug use, and more than holding her own.
The hypocrisy of the cable newsers reeks to low hell.
For years they've been hyping and peddling every variety of fishy speculation and brazen assertion about the Clintons, Vince Foster, Monica, Gary Condit-Chandra Levy, Laci Peterson, this rape case, that abduction case; they've rolled out the ratty carpet for every Swift Boat slob; and now, now, they decide to get loftily anal.
