The dog that didn't howl!

How does CBS explain the 2 (out of the 6) memos that weren't run on the show? One of their experts disputed the one that she saw and examined. Cherry picking veracity (memos) from the same source implies that they knew that they were all false. Perhaps they ran with the least likely to be detected of the litter.

Last week ABC interviewed one of the document examiners who CBS ignored. One FR poster noted that the blowup of the document that she objected to was indeed NOT one of the four subsequently used by CBS.

Perhaps they selected only the fake memos whose contents they felt were the most accurate.

Another vanity post from a newbie. It's starting to smell like ozone here.

Another dog that hasn't barked is the Bush campaign and administration response. The MSM claims they are the most vicious dirty trick artists ever. Where is the libel suit mad dog W filed against CBS? Where is that devil Ashcroft's criminal investigation for fraud there? All I've heard is Chris Cox and a small minority of his GOP colleagues calling for hearings in the House.

Thanks for the gentle correction. I will read your link to
become more familiar with the rules for posting.

I think that the Bush administration and campaign feel that the best approach is to let the Left, DNC, and their CBS propaganda minions collapse on their own.

This is a good approach. Comments on this scandal would come off as attacks, giving the Lefties an opening for a counter-attack defense that would play well in the MSM. Right now, trying to defend the forgeries and bias has the rest of the MSM keeping their distance from CBS, Dan Blather, and the DNC.

This story is killing the Kerry campaign - the Bush campaign is wisely leaving the fatal hemorrhage alone.

I'm not criticizing the lack of a direct Bush response; I agree with it. When your opponents are self destructing get out of their way and enjoy the view! Rather I'm pointing out how the Bush nonresponse doesn't match his media stereotype.

C-bs was probably planning on a follow-up and was saving the remaining two 'documents' for a later broadcast.

Might go looking for a new DIM ad referring to the remaining documents... It is probably buried in a landfill near Austin..

Very true.

Until someone in the MSM comes up with the spin that Pres. Bush is 'too stupid' to respond effectively to the situation. :-)
