Do your find it interesting that a President who has now stated that he is in the military and is using that for a defense and, therefore, should not be brought before any justice system while he is in the military, is only reported, and I get three papers, but it was only reported in the Times. I am just curious, and perhaps you have the answer, why would not the Post and the Gannett paper give us that story? It is impossible that they would be embarrassed to relate such a story, is it not?
