Vanity, Met Hannity, passed on a burned CD Russert-Kerry warcrimes interview!

I met Sean Hannity in Wichita today. In person he is actually a very cool guy. He rarely repeated himself, gave a funny, pointed, and highly political speech, and of course, signed books.

I got both of mine signed. But the point of this thread is - The NBC Meet the Press Tim Russert interview that was posted a couple of days ago, that someone had found in his old stockpile of tapes from May 2001.

In this interview, Russert plays an audio clip from the April 17, 1971 congressional hearings in which Kerry admits to warcrimes. And then asks Kerry about it.

Supposedly this is the interview that NBC has been sitting on since candidacy.

In the thread, people were downloading it, gasping at it, and insisting this must make it into the news somehow. I managed to grab it as well, after a bit the link went dead due to excessive bandwidth usage.

I have it posted on my site now, given to select friends, but have not publically released the link for the same reasons. However, I WANTED this to get out.

And it came to me. I was meeting Hannity soon [today]. I burned the interview to a CD-R disc. I wrote out on the sleeve what the interview was, where to get it on my site in case the disc is scratched or broken, and my email for further contact info (never know).

When I got up in the booksigning line to meet Sean, he looked down and started to sign my book as I held out the CD jacket to him and said, "Sean, this is serious. This is an NBC Meet the Press interview with Kerry. Russert plays clips of him admitting to warcrimes, and then asks Kerry about it."

Sean took the disc, looked at it, and looked at me with a stern and serious look. After a short pause he asked, "The old one?"

I wasn't quite sure what he meant by that, so I said, "Its supposedly from May of 2001."

Another short pause, he took the disk and gave it to Sweet Baby James, then pointed his pen at him and said quickly, "Save that! Mark it down as Kerry on Meet the Press."

Sean finished signing my book and gave it back to me, I said, "Just doing what I can to bring him down."

He looked back and said sincerely, "Thank you. This is what we are trying to do."

Now one can only hope that Sean can get this confirmed, approved, and aired. It may, it may take a while, or it may never, I don't know.

But it may be a critical key to bringing Kerry down.

So no link for us to the site?? :( How bout the old thread?

[Stars N Stripes]

You the man crazieman, no you the man...

[Rodney King]

Can you post a link?

[mrtysmm]

If it's at all possible to air that CD...Sean will see that it's done. Great job....and thank you. I'm sure you will agree with me that Kerry is a very dangerous man to have in the WH. The future of our country is at stake. That sounds so melodramatic....and that statement would actually be funny if it weren't so true.

Can't wait to hear it on his show this week! I wonder if he'll mention it's from a Freeper?

[graycamel]

Kerry will say it's fake.

[satchmodog9]

Fantastic

[hoosiermama]

Way to go! Kerry isn't going to know what hit him....when the freepers get done with him.

[Redcloak]

Not meaning to pick nits, but your title really should have been...

Vanity, Met Hannity, passed on a burned CD Russert-Kerry warcrimes insanity. Oh! The humanity!

If you hit the abuse button on yourself, the mods will change it for you.

There's no need to thank me.

I can't afford the bandwidth bills of posting a 4.7MB file link on my website to Free Republic. I really wish I could. This is why thought about it, burned it, and gave it to Hannity.

The old poster requested to the admin mod that the thread be killed. He couldn't keep up with the bandwidth either. Bits ain't free. :(

[bootless]

Way to go!! I hope to see them in San Francisco.

Good work.

And a bump to Sean and his expert team.
