This is what the Daily Kos reported:
It also took the "nuclear option" off the table, which even Ken Starr said yesterday was damaging to the Senate as an institution and "amounts to an assault on the judicial branch of government." This compromise would break the gridlock over these seven judges, and allow us to get back to doing the people's business.The Daily Kos jumped at the seemingly rare opportunity to use Starr’s (he never addressed this) comment on the "nuclear option" (scary words created by Liberals that has nothing to do with nuclear bombs) by posting it in their May 10th, 2005 blog. But the discussion field for comments was mysteriously turned off on May 11 at 8:12 AM PDT.
Could it be that the Daily Kos caught wind of cBS criminal negligence in taking Ken Starr’s comment out of context? The Daily Kos leave many, many other comments on for discussion. Why turn the comments off regarding the talk on "nuclear option"?
Little Green Football helps set the record straight where Power Line has this quote from an email sent by Kenn Starr to CBS News :
I sat on Saturday with Gloria Borger for 20 minutes approximately, had a wide ranging, on-camera discussion. In the piece that I have now seen, and which I gather has been lavishly quoted, CBS employed two snippets. The ‘radical departure from our history’ snippet was specifically addressed to the practice of invoking judicial philosophy as a grounds for voting against a qualified nominee of integrity and experience. I said in sharp language that that practice was wrong. I contrasted the current practice and that employed viciously against your father with what occurred during Ruth Ginsburg’s nomination process as numerous Republicans voted, rightly, to confirm a former ACLU staff worker. They disagreed with her positions as a lawyer but they voted — again rightly — to confirm her.According to Powerline cBS refuses to hand over the 20-minute interview tape/transcript of Ken Starr to Ken Starr when he requested it.

And here are parting words from Rush Limbaugh in his radio talk today via his transcript about the whole cBS debacle and lies along with true Liberal weenies who are sucker for anything not true:
Why in the world would they take a guy who they despise and twist his words, take them out of context, as a means to hurt Republicans? The answer is: Because secretly they know he has integrity. They know he has credibility, and they know when they play this sound bite out of context that everybody is going to believe Ken Starr. "He said it! You gotta accept it!" It's not ultimate compliment to Starr in the sense of their impression of him, but it is the ultimate insult in terms of what they did. They actually fabricated essentially an opinion Starr has about the nuclear option that he doesn't hold, and they cut up the interview with him and they pieced it together in such a way as to make it look like he was talking about something that he was not discussing. He's like all of us. He thinks that this focus on judicial philosophy... This is an attack on Democrats. What Starr actually did was criticize Democrats. This business of judicial philosophy, deciding these seven nominees aren't worth it because of their judicial philosophy -- which is exactly what Bush has said, by the way. Bush said it's an argument over judicial philosophy, a code word, but Starr picks it up and says this argument over judicial philosophy is going to come back and boomerang against the Senate and they're going to regret it down the road. He was not saying that about the nuclear option. I wanted to pass this on to you and get it out there because to me it's huge. It is gigantic. It is. It is beyond irresponsible because it was done purposely. It can't be irresponsible and purposely done at the same time. Irresponsible would mean somebody wasn't paying attention. This is worse than irresponsible. It's dishonest. It's cheating. It's whatever you want to attach to it. But from now on I'm going to promise you anything comes from CBS, screw it. The first impression is going to be just like when I read the New York Times: Gee, what if that's true?
The cBS lollypop ship is going down along with the rest of the Liberal suckers who took the interview (for Pete’s sake, it’s cBS!) at face value. Even Rush knew something was wrong when he watched it but now he knows better. Don't trust cBS. That goes for the Daily Kos, too, if they can't be honest about the interview.
Watch it here on Google news on the latest cBS criminal debacle involving the Ken Starr interview by cBS.
Here’s another sucker website who believed in the cBS lie with one commenter making the correction.
