Channeling Dan Rather

In an article in The Seattle Times Leonard Pitts Jr recounts Jumah al Dossari's tale of an alleged encounter with a military policeman at GTMO and then makes this astonishing observation:

Yeah, I know. Dossari's probably no Boy Scout. Maybe had his hand in some major nastiness. Maybe isn't even telling the truth.

But his character is beside the point. And as for truth, well, this account sure jibes with those of other Muslim detainees who described brute force attempts to make Christians out of them.

Didn't Rather end up resigning after making stupid comments like that?
