ROFLMAO!
CBS News claims they can't reach Kelli Edwards at this phone number: 212-975-6795
I'd recommend people try it again.
They try to transfer me to the 60 MInutes extension, but cut me off.
That is one butt ugly woman. Barnes is not only corrupt but apparently quite blind.
There's no need for the WH to make accusations, appear defensive, give an opportunity for the subject to change or get anywhere near this. You don't get near a drowning man if he's dangerously flailing about.
The facts are speaking for themselves - the WH should stay far away.
LOL!! You're bad. Truthful, but bad. hahahaha
LOL That is great! How can I get a copy?
Oops - didn't mean to double post...
Um, Robin looks like her father. This is not a good thing.
Poor Blather, going down in flames.
Just a thought... If the Lt. Col. was going to keep a CYA file then he would have duplicates of files that should be else where. so where are the original documents? Who's file would they be in....Also it would have been smarter to keep a log in one of those standard goverment issued record books to go along with this file. One ould cover the other. Also it would show consistency in the claims made. Also if they are from a CYA file then there should be other files on other matters that the Lt.Col. would have kept..why not show those as well as an endorsment of validity? Why just these memos. Also, why keep them for so long after his service? Bush was not on the radar screen until 10-12 yrs ago as a politician?
That sounds like the winning CYA remark. 'What matters is that it could have happened.' Besides, the WH knew the docs were false and let CBS make fools of ourselves -- not fair. It's Bush's fault.
How does he explain the problems with the documents as dsicussed by many experts?
SHOULDN'T THE FBI BE ABLE TO INVESTIGATE THIS: AS POSSIBLE UNAUTHORIZED USE OF FEDERAL MILITARY NAME, USAGE, PRETENDING TO BE AN OFFICER IN THE US MILITARY., FORGERY OVER TELEPHONE LINES?
SHOULD THEY NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE THE PHONE COMPANY TO TRACE THE FAX LINE CALL. ETC.
["The documents MUST be true because they HAVE to true, Damnit! The fact that we went on the air using those documents means they HAVE to be true! And what it this thing you call an 'apology'? I never even heard of it. And even if I did there isn't going to be an apology!"]
QUESTION: Apology or any kind of retraction or...
RATHER: Not even discussed, nor should it be. I want to make clear to you, I want to make clear to you if I have not made clear to you, that this story is true, and that more important questions than how we got the story, which is where those who don't like the story like to put the emphasis, the more important question is what are the answers to the questions raised in the story, which I just gave you earlier.
["Nope! Not even discussed, nor should it be.

The more important question what are the answers to the questions raised in my story about my strawberry key which I just gave you earlier. Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers..."]
Naw, think Baghdad Bob: "These reports are lies! The documents are authentic, and the infidels are roasting in Hell!"
Well, one thing is clear. He's no Nixon, to be perfectly clear.
Rather's behavior qualifies him as the front runner for the Democratic ticket when F'n steps aside.
Dan's using up all his juice on this one.
Good thing he is retiring after John Fraud Kerry craters in November.
