Go back to the early years of the cold war and the big treason scandals in the UK. Those who committed big time treason were gays. They loved the commies then and many of them love the IslamoNazis now and hate GW.

Go to this Drudge link and there is a discussion about Hays and some lie he wrote in August. I have a short time on the computer today, so I don't have time to follow up.

Apparently Drudge and some of his fans caught Hays in another lie about GW.

Perhaps the RNC should hold a press conference where they play the audio tape.

That is a damned good idea, in fact, it should be turned into a television commercial in the Milwaukee market... it's worth thousands of votes.

Here is the Yahoo search on Tom Hays and Bush.

There is a ton of data. It appears that AP select Hays to follow GW and to report in his unique way on GW like this boos bs.

From Instpundit:

"Apparently, this story is not by Scott Lindlaw, as earlier reported, but by Tom Hays.

Jonathan Last has more on this, and observes:

"So the AP: (1) Puts out a story with falsified reporting; (2) Pulls the story; (3) Removes the faulty reporting; (4) Makes no note of its mistake; and then (5) Pulls the byline of the reporter who made the error. If you were going to impute bad faith to the folks at AP--and at this point that's not unreasonable to do--you might suspect that they have pulled Tom Hays's byline to protect him.

Behold the power of Lexis-Nexis. The AP was able to cover their tracks on the web, but Lexis-Nexis keeps all versions of stories which carry different time-stamps. The Hays original is preserved there in its entirety.

You're right about the control of the language as being of ultimate importance to the corrupt press.
When Zell Miller angrily pointed out Kerry's use of the term "occupiers" for our forces, instead of "liberators", so much came into focus for me.

I doubt Tom Hays, apparently of New York, is the Tom Hay, apparently of Washington D.C., who was the 'partner' of the homosexual pilot.

Hay seems to be the correct spelling of the partner(gets a lot more hits).


Amusingly Tom Hays reported on the booing of Hillary at a "Solidarity for Israel" rally in 2000,
see post 69 .

Frankly I'm not convinced he was the culprit although I admit the evidence that he wrote the first story seems damning.

JM Stein7 has a good thread with a different tack to take with these liars.

Yes. The thing that strikes me is, the MSM/LLM still thinks it's the 1970s...They don't -can't-realize that their desire to use reporting as a tool for activism is an insult to the very concept of journalism, which is supposed to be neutral-to let the reader weigh the facts and decide. And they don't realize that their ability to do so ended forever-and over a decade ago!

...agree, "Truth, is the coin of Journalists/Journalism."...but, not in the world of PC-Journalism. Truth, is not in fashion...Political correctness is.

If they want to make a difference, they (tne journalists) should only report the facts. :|

Go back to the early years of the cold war and the big treason scandals in the UK. Those who committed big time treason were gays.

1. This was certainly true of Guy Burgess, his sometime (iirc) lover Maclean, and Harold A. R. "Kim" Philby. I'm not sure about the fourth man in the ring, Anthony Blount. Someone may recall the fifth man in the group, who iirc was high up in British counterintelligence, MI-5.

2. These spies were recruited by an as-yet unidentified faculty member at Cambridge.

3. Other articles I've read have claimed that numbers of the "Oxbridge" university faculty were gay, such as Lord Keynes. Faculty would sometimes entertain students at evening soirees in their quarters, and these evolved into a social scene. Homosexuality was rampant -- the colleges back then were for men only -- and some of the social circles were homosexual constellations around gay faculty members like Keynes, who was a very rapacious predator on his students. Other faculty members in the group competed with Keynes for the favors of the "cutest" boys, usually unsuccessfully, as Keynes was said to have a certain reptilian charm that he used to great effect. Whatever circle produced Burgess, Philby, and Maclean was no doubt very similar, but its principal was, besides everything else, an agent of the OGPU, as the KGB was styled in that era. How Feliks Dzherzhinsky came to develop this asset is buried somewhere in the KGB's archives, but it was one of the most successful sleeper-agent developments in history.

3. "Kim" Philby's intellectual and emotional maturation, someone once commented on the few remarks Philby left behind for analysis, appears to have been arrested about age 14. His thought on the equities of international political competition, on politics in general and the place in them that his job (his real job, as a KGB asset) occupied, seems to have crystallized when he was introduced to homosexuality or "turned out". The author's speculation (I can't remember which author I was reading, but chances are it was John Barron, whose two books on the KGB I have) was that each of these men was a case of arrested development, and that the duplicitous lives they led forbade much reflection and thought about their place in the world, so that they led peculiarly unexamined lives.

The good news is they now know that they can not get away with this BS any more. The press rues the days that FREE REPUBLIC was born. The founder of this forum has something to be proud of. To all of you watchdogz, welcome to the dawn of the real information age, and thank you for the light that shines and illuminates the darkness of politically motivated journalists.

But AP is still refusing to name the reporter of their anonymous hit piece, aren't they?

It was probably Michael "Y'gonna Eat That?" Moore. After his stint with USA Toady (no typo), I imagine he's taking his brown spoon elsewhere to stir the pot.

He seems to be using the name "Tom Hays" and the name "Tom Hay". How interesting.

Thanks for the recall. I had heard that the anti UK/American Homosexual spy ring went higher than the jerks you cited.

What is really interesting is how AP tried to derail us from finding out who really wrote this.

I have found that many AP and Reuters stories that are posted in FR as Yahoo stories are often AP or Reuters stories. The writers of these bs stories are not found until we go to the AP source or about 3 levels deep in Yahoo. That was very prevalent in the Iraq quagmire stories posted by a lot of so called true conservatives who aren't here. Again one or two writers would show up as the quagmire creators.

It is a lot of fun to catch these bastards playing these games.

I am convinced that Tom Hay of 9/11 fame is NOT AP writer Tom Hays.

Just back at my computer after a long day and caught the email address for Eric Burns. I emailed him a note too. Maybe they'll cover it next week. I noticed the line up this week included Cal Thomas instead of Neal Gabler. Perhaps we should email Cal too?

Good catch, dude.

The AP is a hive of crypto-Communists, and there is not a sliver of exaggeration in that statement. It is run and staffed by people committed to establishing an anti-constitutional socialist order in the U.S. Every time an AP reporter's career can be truncated by exposing their lies and propaganda, it is a victory.

It is time to take down Tom Hays.

Thanks!

Whenever I see a report writing nonsense like Hays did with the so called boos, I do the Yahoo search with the reporter's name and gay. Usually that will expose them. Sometimes I have to change the search screen. It is absolutely amazing how often their past as gay acivists in posted all over the internet...

Then, when a protestor like the bitch who was escorted out of the RNC convention is named, I do a general search and follow up with the gay search. Sure enough the gal escorted is a longtime lesbian watermelon from the SF area.

On this situation, AP tried to hid Tom Hays name as the writer. They apparently had been exposed before and apparently Drudge and his blog had exposed Hays.
