Reg Guard Op-Ed: Smith is justifying "ideologically driven political positions"

Gordon Smith's fish kill story is looking like a full blown scandal.
And the Register Guard in Eugene doesn't like what it sees from Smith:

The problem with Sen. Gordon Smith's defense of the Bush administration's 2002 decision to divert Klamath Lake water for irrigation isn't that the Oregon Republican is wobbly on the facts. It's that he's willing to bend and selectively omit the facts to justify ideologically driven political positions.
Ouch.
This just isn't going away, is it Senator?
