What you are missing is the following fact. They *Rush and Hannity* get their material from the press, and the cable news stations *mostly cnn, and MSNBC*. To say that Rush is lying is to say that the press is lying. So, when the press comes with a story after Rush talks about the original story does not mean Rush is lying. It means that the press should of got the story right in the first place.
Rush, and Hannity is only using the stories that the press presents.
