Yeah, Steve Gardner was on board.
LOL!
That would be Gunner's Mate Steve Gardner. Yes, he is with the SBVfT.
He didn't make his comments very tactfully, by a long shot.
However, there's more than a little truth in most of them.
Doubtful. They've already relegated him as an "editor" on H&C tonight where he was scheduled to appear. He's better served just taking his fee and going away.
But that doesn't solve the "hangers on" angle. We'll see.
Anything coming from David Brocks "media matters" site could be dirty'd by using the name of David Brock himself.
Now there is a history!
Good point, he donated his talent. he is a Harvard PHD.
This fact is in his favor and isolates him from the books contributors.
The brown book the rats are compiling will be their undoing, I hope.
If any of the info comes from private protected sources, their party will be over quickly and legally.
The books information is certainly sound and verified. The personal destruction that they will try to engage in will solidify our vet base and it will show up in the exit polling on election day.
aren't they vegetarians?
His comments weren't any more traumatic or embarrassing to read than what is on that leftist site regarding Bush, Cheney, Republicans, Iraq, rich white men, and so on. Damned funny how that works.
Sycophants sent the stuff to media matters when they find it. We need another site that monitor them for BS or maybe we can add a section to one of our conservative sites that get a lot of media hits. Perhaps we can do it here.
They did a little more than 'google' him, because their source provided information about FR that had little to do with Corsi. It was more about the SBVs associating with FR and how that might taint them. The source even copied posts from another site where a banned FR personality(s) said Corsi played a part in that banning. The important point is: they got him discredited, but not really--and showed they are experts at the art of the smear.
Kerry spokesperson on FOXnews wed morning is already backpedaling like crazy on Cambodia comments and "seared memory" problems. Brian Kilmeade kept asking if Kerry WOULD sign to release his records -esp on a particular date of Jan 1969- the Kerry campaign kept changing the answer to He has released as many records as Bush has- I believe he has done this already -OOOPS- only released glowing reports- no other records- he also kept calling Swiftvets for Bush - how insulting these Dems are- McCain outa come out against Kerry camp insulting these vets as well!
In the last few days, I KNOW I went to mediamatters and read their site to discover words that they are funded by Soros. Now, those words are gone. However, here are others:
The Democrat "digital brownshirt" movement has come a long way since Kangass wildcatting days. Today, the movement is well-funded and tightly disciplined. Its headquarters is the Center for American Progress (CAP), a far-left think tank launched in July 2003. Headed by former Clinton Chief of Staff John Podesta and funded with $10 million from George Soros, CAP serves as the premier platform for Hillary Clintons political activism.
One of CAPs missions, according to its charter, is to run "rapid response" media campaigns, for the purpose of debunking and discrediting troublesome press reports. In this respect, CAPs mission echoes that of the so-called "War Room" which Hillary first operated during the 1992 presidential campaign. According to the Washington Post:
"The war room was set up to gather as much intelligence as possible and quickly turn it to Clintons advantage. Campaign advisors tried to anticipate what stories reporters were working on in hopes of shaping those stories before they were written."
Critical to the War Rooms success was James Carvilles so-called "rapid-response team" an elite band of spinmeisters who prided themselves on their ability to intercept a Clinton scandal report at midnight and turn it around to Clintons advantage by 7 am the next morning.
In view of these facts, Al Gore's use of the term "rapid responder" becomes less mysterious. The term has evidently enjoyed a certain cachet among Clinton insiders for years. From the beginning, however, it has been the Democrats, not the Republicans, who have honed "rapid-response" media operations to a science.
On May 3, 2004, CAP launched a new Web site, MediaMatters.org, which specializes in "rapid-response" work. Funded with $2 million in soft money contributions, Media Matters set to work cranking out daily reports that attack with robotic monotony virtually every conservative utterance that finds its way onto the air waves as a "lie" a "smear," a "slander" or a "factual error."

But trying to tie Soros to John Kerry's coattails simply isn't going to work - except with the brain dead faithful, and they're already rock solid.

Media Matters for America is a new website (mediamatters.org) "dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation." It's been developed with the zillions of tax-deductible dollars that George Soros and others contributed to the leftist Center for American Progress.

THE LIMBAUGH DOUBLE STANDARD: MediaMatters has sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, asking him to correct this double standard and remove Rush Limbaugh from Armed Forces Radio."
The source even copied posts from another site where a banned FR personality(s) said Corsi played a part in that banning. The important point is: they got him discredited, but not really--and showed they are experts at the art of the smear.
