Star-Telegram.com : How credible is the criticism?:

"The people who have made it their quest to find reasons to speak ill of our war on terror are not stupid.

Whether journalists or professors or Hollywood stars, the people who lie in wait for reasons to play 'gotcha' with the Bush administration are a fairly smart lot -- which proves that the ability to do well on Jeopardy! does not necessarily translate to analytical skill when the politics of war kick in.

How else to explain two phenomena of January: the ridiculous overhype of the accusations leveled by fired Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill and the gasps over Secretary of State Colin Powell's assertions about Iraq and al Qaeda.
"

Bubba Davis has shown that content-less polemical punditry is still all the rage in Texas. Search this article for any shred of real information, fact checking, counterpoint, motivated conclusion, and you'll come up short. In brief, this is nothing but a rant by an intellectual runt.

What is perhaps the most telling in the O'Neill story is the lack of factual rebuttal to his book. He's been smeared plenty, including by Bubba Davis, but no one has come out with a credible "no that's not true" for the facts.

Which goes to show that, for Bubba Davis, people who play Jeopardy! well and have a good head for historical detail are not good Americans! Only those who turn a blind eye to detail, policy, law, the US Constituion, Christianity, human rights and some basic sense of decency -- only these folks are good Americans to Bubba Mark Davis and the Fort-Worth Star Telegram.
