    You’re not wrong but I think Fox news calling the race for Bush emboldened some others to do it, and that swayed public opinion, which matters in theory at least.

      Yep, Fox led the charge in manufacturing consent for the ensuing legal “justifications” outlined in the comment above.

      It is a rather incredible cast of characters considering current events, to say the least.
