NYT's October Surprise Collapses October 26, 2004 04:33 AM

Yesterday, the New York Times did a fine service for the Kerry campaign by publishing a carefully timed hit piece describing how tons of explosives have gone missing from a site in Iraq.

This morning, the story is imploding, with NBC News leading the charge to point out that the explosives were already gone when U.S. troops arrived just a day after the fall of Baghdad. (Bizarrely, CNN has this as their lead story online, and it is nowhere to be found on MSNBC's front page).

I think the Guard memos was the intended October surprise. The dims had to run it early to save the sagging skerry at that time. So they've had to trot out weaker and weaker ones since they used the big gun early.

According to Drudge, CBS was planning to launch this story on the next 60 minutes program.

Every one of us need to contact the FCC and protest cBS running another Bush hit piece. If Sinclair cannot be allowed to air Stolen Honor, then cBS should not be allowed to run 60 BS Minutes.

From the CBS News web site:

60 Minutes Correspondent Ed Bradley reports the U.N. says it warned the U.S. government the munitions site might be looted shortly after the invasion.

I believe this will be the MSM's fall-back position. They will say Bush should have expected this and moved to protect it.

So Yaaawn rolls out the Bent Gun to bring some hopelessly lacking charisma to his campaign. At least bill didn’t say, Hilary wishes she was here; although his vote against fear line had to be parsed? This is far from a sure thing as far as helping Yaaawn, since BJ’s shirttails are tucked into his pants. As President, he managed to lose the Senate, the House and eventually the White House. Just ask ex-Governor Davis if clinton is a sure thing, being recalled in the most liberal clinton loving state in the Country. As much as the pundiCrats love him, it is still doubtful that the unwashed have quite the same adoration or fond memories of the clinton regime.

The Rats would have you think the clinton years was the Land of Milk and Honey, but they forget to mention Elian Gonzalez or the other disasters. A poor little boy whose mother drowned was found on an inner tube after escaping Cuba, is stolen out of his home at gunpoint to be sent back to a brutal dictatorship. More Americans died under the clinton regime by his Jackboot tactics than any other Presidency since The Civil War.

Under clinton we completely let down our guards to terrorism. He weakened our intelligence structure with Janet Reno’s Dept of Injustice. She was too busy cracking down on Christians and militia groups to ever track terrorists. She turned the DOJ into another arm of the DNC and convicted any and all of the DNC and WH enemies. In addition she increased the wall between the FBI and CIA which led to our blind spot on 9/11. Throw in the mass citizenship drives to stuff the ballot box while pardoning terrorist bombers and you are begging for an attack.

Bill Clinton brought us Osama bin Laden. His treating Al Queda and terrorism as a nuisance was pure folly. To address terrorism would frighten his beloved soccer moms and how could he get re-elected if they were upset?? His surrender and desertion at Mogadishu allowed Osama to gain stature in the Arab community and emboldened him to make more brazen attacks. He then attacked the Cobal Towers and then the Twin Towers first attack and still no response. Clinton was too busy banging the help to be bothered with protecting the Country. This is when Osama turned from smalltime terrorist to become the face of worldwide terrorism and attacked the USA whenever and wherever he could without fear of reprisal.

Next he attacked our warship the USS Cole. Never mind that the Cole was fueling in a dangerous port thanks to the Impeached President. Never mind that he killed 20 US sailors with absolutely no response other than an empty threat he would track them and kill them yada, yada, yada. As we find out in the 911 hearings Al Queda likely shot down TWA 800 and the clinton regime covered up the story and never wanted to investigate. If you really want to see Yaaawn Cut & Run Kerry’s terrorist plan, just look at clinton’s inept policy against the threats to our Country.

BJ’s capstone to his military legacy was his Bosnian and Kosovo wars. We bombed a turd world country into the stone-age without even passing the Global Test. We supported the KLA which was a Communist branch of Al-Queda that was actually the heroin smuggling arm and we helped them overtake Kosovo. There was no genocide, only a Civil War of Christians fighting radical mooselums trying to kill them, hmmmm, sounds familiar. Now Osama had a clear path from the poppy fields in Afghanistan to the heroin markets in Europe and the U$.

So send old BJ on the campaign trail and ask America to go back to diddling while the Country is burning. Ask the Country to stick its head back in the sand and pretend that those threats are not real and those wolves don’t really want to kill us. Do we ask the Country to throw a few lambs to the wolves so they hopefully won’t attack and kill the flock like we did under clinton, or do we call out the dogs?

Pray for W and The Election

The MSM and Kerry have gotten a page out of Nazi handbook written by Goebbels. If you tell a big enough lie people will believe it because they won't believe someone can tell that big of a lie....and say it often enough and people will believe it even more.
