White House spokeswoman Dana Perino did not respond directly to Hersh's assertions, but said the article was another "error-filled piece" in a "series of inaccuracy-riddled articles about the Bush administration."

"The White House is not going to dignify the work of an author who has viciously degraded our troops, and whose articles consistently rely on outright falsehoods to justify his own radical views," she said on Monday.

Criticizing this administration is attacking the troops. Bunch of lying cowards.

4. Just like Dick Cheney ....

"I disagree with the premise of that question Tim."

bluster and blame the messenger.

5. Tweets just lectured Hersh on Hardball about making

critical comments about Little Boots and/or US policy when overseas. Bad form, I guess. Apparently, the WH had a problem with something Hersh said during a speech he made in Canada.
