Remember in All the President’s Men when Ben Bradlee says that the White House has issued a non-denial denial? Well, here is another one. The cover story on today’s NY Times reports on John McCain’s gambling problem:
Mr. McCain’s spokesman, Tucker Bounds, would not discuss the senator’s night of gambling at Foxwoods, saying: “Your paper has repeatedly attempted to insinuate impropriety on the part of Senator McCain where none exists — and it reveals that your publication is desperately willing to gamble away what little credibility it still has.”
A non-denial denial!
