Gov't obtains wide AP phone records in probe "The president is aware of what is going on in Southeast Asia. That is not to say that there is anything going on in Southeast Asia." – Ron Ziegler, 1971.

Meanwhile, Jay Carney continues to morph into Baghdad Bob with stories like this appearing in the previously reliable Pravda-on-the-Potomac: "IRS officials in Washington were involved in targeting of conservative groups." Ooopsie! Carney needs to study up on Ron Ziegler.

"This is the operative statement. The others are inoperative." -- Either Ron Ziegler in April 1973 or Jay Carney next week, or, more likely, both.
