From Dan Froomkin's White House Briefing

"Spokesman Trent Duffy seemed to blame the accident on muddy conditions. "It's been raining a lot and the topsoil is loose," he said.

But Daily Kos blogger Markos Zúniga did a little Web-crawling and found that it hadn't rained in a week in Crawford. Here are the stats, from wunderground.com."

I have to wonder. If this occurred in 2001 B.K. (Before Kos, or any other liberal blogger for that matter), would the media even bother to check this aspect of the story?

Cheers to Kos for the mainstream mention and the good work.
