Durbin offered proof of column

Senator Dick "Turban" Durbin (Donk - IL) got himself stuck in the waffle iron, while trying to backpedal after applying a de-facto religious test to the nomination of Judge Roberts to the SCOTUS.

A law professor who used Senate Minority Whip Richard J. Durbin as a source for a column last month about federal Judge John G. Roberts Jr. -- a column that Mr. Durbin later disputed -- has a taped phone message that he says proves the accuracy of his reporting.

Damn! Pesky factual evidence of weasels at work! How's a Donk politicial supposed to do his thing when someone holds him (or her) to the facts!

In an Aug. 4 letter to Mr. Durbin, Mr. Turley laid out his detailed recollection of the situation and quoted extensively from a taped telephone message from Mr. Shoemaker. "While speculation continues as to what was said in your meeting, I wanted to establish that everything said in my article was taken directly from my notes, confirmed by your staff, and never questioned on any point on accuracy," Mr. Turley wrote. "I stayed out of this controversy for over two weeks as your staff has insisted that the account was inaccurate. However, it is grossly unfair to present this matter as an error on our part when we specifically confirmed the account with your staff and never heard a single objection on accuracy until the story ran."

What? A Donk Senator waffling? Anyone got some syrup?
