Five weeks before the election, Tuesday's CBS Evening News attempted to legitimize baseless Internet rumors that President Bush secretly plans to revive the draft. Reporter Richard Schlesinger focused his piece around how one mother "is petrified about a military draft, and she's not alone. Mass e-mails are circulating among worried parents," as if the political spam had any merit. Instead of trying to allay the woman's fears with facts, Schlesinger instead asked: "Would you vote for a Democrat?" She replied: "Absolutely. I would vote for Howdy Doody if I thought it would keep my boys home and safe."
I think Liberals eat this stuff up. If you listen to the whack-jobs in the press they think CBS is getting railroaded. So what if it is not the truth they have got to believe this garbage or their dead-end philosophy has finally come to it's dead-end
Intelligent people do not watch CBS anymore.
Your statement is half right. There are 2 democrat bills, dead in committee, to reinstate the draft. However, the email campaign that claims Bush is secretly planning to revive the draft IS an internet hoax. Actually, it is even worse than a hoax, it is a fraudulent and hateful campaign of lies.
Exactly...
Then connect the dots to demonstrate further fraudulent and bias "reporting" by that stealth 527, CBS.
"Intelligent people" is NOT who CBS targets with their propaganda.
Exactly right... Let FOX scoop CBS on this too...
This story was just reported on 980am Kansas City. Keep digging CBS, this grave needs to be big enough for all MSM.
Dubya is a GREAT counterpuncher. This will undoubtedly come up in the debates, and then Dubya will ram the facts right up Kerry's butt! I just hope Dubya points out that the co-sponsors are mostly members of the out-of-touch CBC. That might even win him some AA votes.
voting for Howdy Dowdy-
Kerry IS Howdy Dowdy with a pumpkin head
As if Dan Rather didn't have problems enough...
HANOI Kerry has, or had at one time, a plan for required national service prior to high school graduation.

CBS is like a drunk - their resolve to do better lasts only until the next bottle/story comes along, then they go back to their dissolute ways. Last night's piece was shameless in its reliance on discredited Internet rumors, it's failure to expose the real left-wing backgrounds of the "Republicans" in the "anti-draft" organization, and its failure to mention that the only real efforts to restore the draft are exclusively sponsored by liberal Democrats. Utterly partisan and shameless.

That's the DNCBS News!
Drudge had the RatherBiased.com story up for while yesterday, but I don't see it today?
What's up with this post? It is dated 9-30-04, but myself and others replied on 9-29-04?
FOXNEWS just had a nice piece on this but I haven't seen any threads on it yet. It's moving.
