Did CNN leak this Bob Dole footage on purpose? Is it doctored?

The poster is solidly PRO-LIFE so that makes him a troll? I don't get it. Have you forgotten that this is a CONSERVATIVE forum?

It seems dumb for the camera man to ask for anonymity, if CNN really cares about this breach they already know who he is, or have a pretty good idea. How many cameras do they usually have for shows like this? Three?

Have you read the whole transcript of the exchange between McCain and Bush? Bush didn't attack McCain's military record at any time. In fact, during this exchange, Bush praises McCain's service to his country. Some speaker at an event Bush held said that McCain "deserted the vets." And there's alot of controversy over the way McCain and Kerry handled the POW issue, which had made alot of people angry. As Bob Dornan said on Hannity & Colmes last night, "If John Kerry thinks the Swift Boat Vets are angry at him, he ought to hear what the wives and families of the POW's have to say about him."

Bush made it clear to McCain that the speaker didn't speak for him, and that he (Bush), hadn't liked what the speaker had said about his own father when he was President. Then he ended, telling McCain he didn't appreciate flyers being handed out comparing him to Bill Clinton. When McCain tried to say they weren't his flyers, Bush countered with: "Well, they say Paid for by the McCain Campaign," and flashed the flyer for McCain to see. The audience cracked up over that.

"McCain was justified to be upset..."

Yeah, at the speaker who accused him of "deserting the vets," not Bush.

I'm sure that whatever was cut out would lend some context to the latest Stalinist mythology the Left wants to promote.

The party doesn't want "nuance" when political enemies are to be taken out.

Read the article, saw the clip.

No one has done more to lend establishment respectability to the falsehoods being peddled against Kerry than Dole.

Chris Suellentrop is someone who I never heard of before but I know enough about that person now just from reading that BS article! The charges against Kerry are not falsehoods. If they were then Kerry could easily disprove them, dismiss them, and then move on. He hasn't, he can't, he won't, and he is toast because of it.
