CRONKITE: KARL ROVE BEHIND BIN LADEN TAPE Sat Oct 30 2004 16:31:19 ET

Former CBSNEWS anchorman Walter Cronkite believes Bush adviser Karl Rove is possibly behind the new Bin Laden tape.

Cronkite made the startling comments late Friday during an interview on CNN.

Cronkite said he is "inclined to think that Karl Rove, the political manager at the White House, who is a very clever man, he probably set up bin Laden to this thing."

Interviewer Larry King did not ask Cronkite to elaborate on the provocative election eve accusation.

<> Hey, why can't we all just accept that Rove is the man, just like his mentor, Lee Atwater, was the man.

Rove, if you are indeed in cahoots with OBL, for God's sake don't share any of that reverse-engineered alien technology with him...and please ease off on the hurricanes in Florida. They're driving my Aunt Edwina crazy.

For people that think anyone to the right of "all the way left" is retarded, they're giving Rove credit for an awful lot of cleverness.

He's no uncle of mine. But if I had an uncle like Walter Cronkite, I'd introduce him to a Louisville Slugger.

Or KING is in on the smear, or doesnt mind this kind of conpsiracy-idiocy being spouted ... look, they need a smear like this to hold their troops together and not face a blowout.

Reminds me of how the left in Spain won after the bombing ... using a massive campaign of lies that accused the Goverment (WRONGLY) of a coverup ...

Cronkite, you old fool, you have NO EVIDENCE to make such an outrageous claim.

"Who's behind Cronkite?"

You can bet the Commi's think he's fair and balanced.

The funny this is King introduced him with:

KING: ...Walter Cronkite, the legendary journalist and old friend, a great man in the history of broadcast journalists, and maybe the most revered person ever to go on camera

"Looks like Archie Bunker was right about that "pinko Cronkite"

Norman Lear was in a position to know! Archie Bunker was right about a lot of things. My fave was the time he told Meathead to move "To Stupid New Jersey, they'll take anybody!"

Now I'm here in Jersey, with the terrorists!

Neither, He is a communist. Rush Limbaugh several months ago talked about the Soviet Union planting "Seeds” in the United States. According to Rush, these "Seeds" have sprung up in the Democratic Party. Walter Cronkite IMHO is one of those "Seeds” That is why this Presidential election is the most important since 1864. If Lincoln lost in 1864, the peace (Defeatist) movement would have ended the war by granting the South independence.

Rove is also behind getting Walter to say something this stupid in order to make Americans trust the MSM even less.

Cronkite was once one of the most trusted men in America! Hence, there is no need to question his documentation of such assertion.
