He's obviously mentally ill. On-air Meltdown to follow.
Licorice: "The Widow Heinz was right.
She almost threw me out the window but said
that Gunga Dan is probably looking for the real forger.".
"I think the public, even decent people who may be well-disposed toward President Bush, understand that powerful and extremely well-financed forces are concentrating on questions about the documents because they cant deny the fundamental truth of the story," he said. "If you cant deny the information, then attack and seek to destroy the credibility of the messenger, the bearer of the information. And in this case, its change the subject from the truth of the information to the truth of the documents.Translation: It's not the lack of evidence that's important, but the seriousness of the charges.
No. This is from the Kerry Spot quoting a NY Observer article. That article has been posted on FR.
Rather and cBS are saying that President Bush has the burden of proof?
How Maxist of them....
Rather wouldn't bother me so much if he called himself a "Democratic Media Consultant" but he insists on this shoe-leather and suspenders "I'm just a reporter" routine.
Oh brother, that's his defense?
Wow...talk about shooting yourself in the foot. Worse defense ever.
Remember what I have been saying, they cannot back away from the charges because it would spoil their October surprise, the accusation that the real reason that Bush was grounded was cocaine use. The allegation is based on another memo which indicates that another pilot was grounded at that time for drug use and that was why Bush skipped the physical. I am told that drug testing didn't start until 1981, though.
So the stonewalling continues. I hope it lasts until election day. Every day Rather/CBS totes this line is worth an additional 5,000 votes for Bush.
The hardened heart of a partisan journalist. He just can't let it go, even if it is in the interest of self AND truth to do so.
It is our position, Danny boy, that your position is right there among the dog excrement on the sidewalks of NYC waiting to be stepped in.
Our hope is that the pedestrans along that stretch of sidewalk are fortunate enough to step in the dog shit.
He can say that again.
This is great. This keeps the issue alive. Not just for now, but for at least another week. Maybe longer. Another month. Meanwhile, the clock is running down on the campaign playing field, George Bush is ahead, he has the ball, he is running one smoothly executed play after another, picking up yardage here, yardage there, and the poor ol' Johns can't even run their own defense since it's been taken over by a blithering old idiot of a has-been cantankerous horses-patoot of an "anchor man" who won't leave the playing field and get out of the way of the game.
This is great.
Truly great stuff.
So, he is suggesting their source is Burkett. Doubtful as Burkett was discredited in the 2000 election, but the timeline is right.
If you want to find the originals of the documents:
Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Word
FILE -> Open Recent
You just have to be sitting at Dan Rather's, or maybe Mary Mapes's, computer to do it.
d.o.l.
Criminal Number 18F
Drug screening was NOT done during regularly scheduled physicals. It is done randomly and without warning, at least in the Navy.
