Bush's lowest moment in office and Swift Boating Ali
A poster at nitpicker.blogspot.com assesses criticism of Ali by Daniel Pipes, Front Page Magazine:


Bush's lowest moment in office
Was it the "Mission Accomplished" moment?



Was it when he challenged terrorists to attack American soldiers?



Was it when he misled the United States into a protracted war?



Nope.

More...

Check out the link to Jame Wolcott's rebuttal of Pipes at the end of the piece:

"In this giddy, fawning statement, Mr. Bush did not, the Washington Post astringently noted, 'mention Ali's very public opposition to the Vietnam War, which led the prizefighter to lose his boxing license for three years when he refused to serve in the Army.'"
