Two problems:
(1) Not that affair. The other one. (FYI, I've been told of a third, by a friend of someone who allegedly participated -- yawn!)
(2) That's a pretty seriously overblown report. That little media story barely lasted a cycle, was mostly limited, like the Kerry story, to modest TV coverage and a bit of tabloid coverage. It was also based on a reputable source that attached their name to the accusation.
Tthe fact that Stone Phillips asked the question doesn't mean the story was run (very carefully worded, wasn't that report); note that Imus asked the question, too, as have a number of other reporters. So that one Bush story got about as much play as the Kerry story.
