Smears, lies and videotape

While the Republican National Committee and its gaggle of talk show hosts and bloggers peddles its video showing -- what, that Democrats were misled during the rampup to the Iraq war? -- there's another video worth checking out.

This from Think Progress:

The story of the CIA leak scandal is far from over. But so much has already happened, sometimes it’s easy to miss the big picture.

We’ve created a video to help you keep everything straight. It uses footage pulled directly from the White House, recent TV news clips and other archival video to explain exactly what happened and why it’s important. Most of the story is told by administration officials themselves.

Check it out.

It's long, but worth watching.
