mmm... ann
Because they are covering ther own butts in case they ever screw up... thats my guess...
Buckhead!
What a great line.
What a great story. Ann knocks it out of the park again.
I am not sure about her comment about any fourth grader could recognize these were phoney. Then again my daughter in fifth grade can probably identify several dozen different fonts, but then again she has no idea what a typewriter is.
I love this woman.

Story
Great article m'lady.
From this moderately observant fourth grader.
"The Internet...keeps dissecting and discrediting the gossip and innuendo that the major media put out.
~Ann Coulter~
Seriously my humble take on this is that even is the documents are forged it is the press's duty to stay on story which are the multitude of lies in GW Bush's military record. If this 86 year old grandma goes on and on about how she recalls waht a rule breaKER, SLACK OFF, AWOL DRUNK NO SHOW HE WAS --ONCE AGAIN THE WH HAS A PROBLEM. Not every independent or fence sitter is going to suck this up and blame Dan Rather...
why couldn't the documents be forgeries? Rovian attempt to get Rather Compared to the rest of the presstitutes, Rather has become a bit of a thorn in the side of the Bushies. Sixty Minutes has also been out in front of the herd of lapdogs. Why WOULDN'T a Rove type set a trap, with faked documents, to try to snare Rather?
I yelled at Dan saying, "Dan, you are my HERO!!!!!!!!!!!
Sure hope Dan-the-Man lobs a THUTH grenade into the whoring cabal of scum
I hope ALL the media in this country is watching this unfold. Dan Rather is giving them a lesson on what reporting is supposed to be.
I am now officially in love with Dan Rather.
If CBS had backed down in the face of intimidation, the bullies would be crawling all over the network's corpse now, and we Democrats would have made another crucial tactical error. We have to defend the truth, even if it is a minor truth. If we give in to bullying, we've lost.
Here's the email I sent: Thank you, Dan Rather, for being one of the last true journalists of courage and integrity remaining on the planet! Those of us who still value Truth over Propaganda respect and applaud you! Please, oh please, continue your efforts and set the example for your fellow "journalists" who routinely cede to the pressures of the Bush Administration and become complicit in spreading their lies and obfuscations. You, sir, are a true Hero! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Way to go Dan, my respect for this man just keeps growing. I just hope he really has the goods. I suspect he does, but man if he doesn't.......
I have two things to say: 1. Thank you, Mr. Rather; and.... 2. Have you no shame, Mr. Bush? Just answer the questions.
I get the feeling Dan has lived for this moment for years now, he's kept rather quiet, careful not to rock the boat too much. For the last five years, people have wondered, why is he still hanging on. Sometimes he looked so tired. But now, when American is at her darkest hour, Dan is taking off the mask and putting his cards on the table. He knows more sh*t about this cabal, then most of us put together. He has been there since the beginning and he has seen it all.
Could CBS have the originals as well? Maybe they were hoping bush would deny the charges and then they could present the real docs and REALLY hang his ass? This gets more and more strange...yesterday I thought it was a Rove's trick but CBS is not backing down so they must have something to back themselves up. Frankly it looks like they want to force bush co into a courtroom or congressional hearing????
I want Dan Rather to unleash the fury NOW!!!!
The documents could be true in content but unauthentic from the standpoint that they are not the original documents and have been reproduced.
THIS is Ann at the top of her game....WOW!
Is she not the sexiesrt woman in politics?
>>Why do TV commentators on CBS' forgery-gate insist on issuing lengthy caveats to the effect that of course this was an innocent mistake and no one is accusing Dan Rather of some sort of "conspiracy,"<<
Sean "My good friend Lanny Davis" Hannity said this very day that he thinks Dan was an innocent dupe.
Riiiiight.
Go Ann. Sitting on the flagstone porch steps in high heels heftin' the rifle. Although I see it doesn't have a scope, this shot reminds me of the "you're a redneck" joke: "if you've ever used the scope on your rifle to look for the kids."
Even the Los Angeles Times has concluded that the documents are fraudulent – and when you fail to meet the ethical standards of the L.A. Times, you're in trouble.
Now that Walter Cronkite is retired, Rather is TV's real-life Ted Baxter without Baxter's quiet dignity.
Kelley backs up her shocking allegations with names of highly credentialed people – who have absolutely no connection to the events she is describing. No one directly involved is on the record, and the people on the record have never met anyone in the Bush family. In other words, her stories have been "vetted" enough to be included on tonight's "CBS Evening News" with Dan Rather.
Curiously, all this comes at the precise moment that speculation is at a fever pitch about whether Kitty Kelley is in the advanced stages of syphilis.

I understand your intent, but the implication about Freepers... :(
hehehehehe
