Here's some irony for ya. Guess what got bumped from 60 Minutes so the now infamous segment on Bush's National Guard service with the forged documents could air? A segment on the fake Niger uranium documents. Remember those? 60 Minutes spent six months investigating the scandal, while the FBI dragged its feet. They even landed an interview with Elisabetta Burba, the first person to get the fake documents, and her source, Rocco Martino. Details in Newsweek.
