Will Donna Brazille retract major lie about swiftvets on FOX NEWS?
FOX News with Chris Wallace | 8-15-04 | dfu

Posted on 08/15/2004 8:31:10 AM PDT by doug from upland

The swiftvets cannot let RAThack Donna Brazille get away with this incredible lie this morning on FOX News with Chris Wallace. Mary Matalin and Brazille were debating the controversy, when Brazille actually said the following --

"These are hired guns who went after John McCain."

The Swiftvets had nothing to do with John McCain. Brazille must be forced to retract this statement that she knows is false.

At the time, I thought she meant John Kerry and was just too dumb to realize her misstatement.

Bobo Brazille is intellectually and morally challenged.

I was just as outraged. I don't think your title is appropriate though. This is a legitimate topic that should be discussed in this forum, but it could use a better title.

Oh man, you guys are letting the Dems control the debate here! All this SB Vet stuff is useless crap that the MSM is not going to let interfer with Kerry. By putting all this focuis on it takes away from the issue of Kerry not doing Jack since he became a senator.

Don't play the dem party game!!

This affirmative action hack must be given some leniency.

She meant to say that the people who support the Swiftboat Vets financially, are some of the same people who successfully "smeared" McCain in South Carolina in 2000.

Whether she's right or not doesn't matter.

What matters is that Kerry's entire Vietnam facade is paper thin and about to rip him a new one!

I am going to Email FNC and ask for a retraction. I suggest that others do it also.

"Bobo Brazille"

Glad to see that I'm not the only who remembers Big Time Wrestling before the days of Hulk Hogan and the whole wrestling-chic thing took off.

If you wanna shut Donna Brazzile's pie-hole, just help the Swiftvets get their message out! The numbers of individual contributions from the grassroots Americans will silence her! Here's your chance, FReepers!

No. She meant John McCain. It's one of the talking points. "Associated with the same people who smeared John McCain in South Carolina, and cost him the primary."

I suspect that is untrue, that there are no associative links between the people involved in the Swiftee presentation, and the people involved in the South Carolina ads.

I heard the same thing from people on Fox's "News Watch" last night. These must be the latest 'rat talking points.

The Swift boat veterans for truth come out, and you call it "letting the Dems control the debate?"

I hear your point though, that Kerry is hollow on his Senate service, as well. Start a fire on that issue, and people will come to see the action.

I heard Brazile. I thought Mary Matlin cleaned her clock, and Brazile looked lame. I think, though, that your thread title is an unfortunate choice.

Donna also automatically dismissed the SwiftVets allegations as false, without even having reviewed their issues.

It is unprofessional for FNC to have a panel discussion with panelist spouting about issues that they have no knowledge.

Yes, Brazille is trying to taint them. This effort started with Admiral Hoffman. It has absolutely nothing to do with what was perceived by some to have happened to John McCain.

If Wallace practiced responsible jounalism, he would not have allowed it without challenging her to prove.

From Veteran attacks Kerry

Merrie Spaeth, a one-time press aide to President Ronald Reagan, is the group's media representative. She was involved with an independent group that ran widely criticized ads attacking McCain in 2000 when he was opposing Bush for the presidential nomination.

The DNC is desperate. They cannot touch the allegations and doing everything they can to smear the swiftvets. It's all they have.
