Let me get this straight. The NYT issues a bogus story on missing explosives. Kerry then makes it a key part of his campaign. Then the NYT reports on the new theme of Kerry's campaign. Then Kerry makes an ad touting the NYT story.
Here's a fast grab of all the links & relevant commentary I have so far:
The media plays 'trick or treat' The media are too busy
repackaging old Iraq news in an October offensive against President George W. Bush's reelection to investigate truly startling
evidence unearthed this week that the Communist Party may have been directing John Kerry's anti-war activities in the early 1970s
I've read the Kerry ad. It may be built on deceptions and half truths but it's an effective ad and it will require not rebutting but refutation.
President Bush needs to make a statement; have a press conference - something straight from the President himself and NOW. . .stop the lies. . .stop the misinformation. . .stop the Kerry camp in it's tracks. . .NOW; by stepping up and out. . .taking advantage of his position as President so speak directly to the people. He should have a 'fireside' everynight. . .or Press conference every day. . .
NBC Video vs. Kerry Campaign Video... ~4:41pm~ EST
SEEMS INCREDIBLE THAT NEARLY 24 HOURS AFTER NYTIMES STORY IS BLOWN AWAY - JOHN KERRY CONTINUES TO USE IT ON THE TRAIL: The Daily Recycler has done everyone in the blogosphere a tremendous service by editing together Kerry's specific statements and the actual truth from NBC News. WATCH THE VIDEO HERE (1:27), LISTEN HERE TO THE 3 HOUR EXPOSE we did on air today.
YET ANOTHER SERVICEMAN REFUTES THE TIMES ACCOUNT [10/26 05:23 PM] --
Question seems to be IS THIS THEIR BEST SHOT??
I'm confident it won't be their last.
NYTrogate--
As I said yesterday, Joe Lockhart on the Kerry-Edwards conference call yesterday said the missing explosives: "Central issue for the rest of the campaign."
This is their October Surprise and they have nothing else but vote fraud. They have to go with this story no matter if it is a lie or not. They have nothing else. Desperation has set in for the Dems and it is blowing up in their face.
We in the "New Media" need to keep telling everyone we know that this story is a "LIE" and Kerry is a liar as well as MSM
Edwards rips Bush for lost Iraq explosives (Will Edwards apologize now?) I have been contacting the media sources that are continuing the missing explosives lie trying to pressure them to issue retractions and to get Kerry Campaign people to comment on the latest information about this story that they have been using as a political attack against President Bush. I urge you all to do the same.
Why don't they just call it the Oct 25th Surprise, since they have a new one everday.
This is not the real October surprise- it's too early for the critical hit; there's a whole week for the story to be shot at and sunk - The real attack comes at the end of week and is directed at Bush's character, a follow-up to the Kitty Kelly and Dan Rather types of attack.
THE DITTOCAM IS ON! Live Rush Thread Rush is ripping CBS, NYT, and Kerry a new one. (LOVING IT) I have a feeling that this is going to hurt CBS and Kerry in the long run. I am glad that NBC came forward with their
footage showing the explosives were moved before we took Baghdad. You would think that CBS and Dan Rather would have learned their lesson after Memo-gate-- In a lot of workplaces today (and for the next week) people are fixating on the election. It's topic #1 in conversations.
So even if the MSM doesn't get on it, those of us of the PJ platoons can burn peoples ears off at work about it.
"what's coming out now is just old useless info. Am I wrong?"
I believe you are correct, if they had anything, anything at all they would have used it by now. They are recycling old news- remember the national guard story they tried to resurrect and put some extra pepper on it by sending in FAKE documents. Again the bloggers came to the rescue and were the first to prove the documents as false. Everything they have tried to throw at this president has fallen flat on its face-
"Obviously this isn't a case of Bush failing to "guard" the explosives. By the time our troops got there they weren't there to guard."
Another CLASSIC case of guilt by accusation. The truth didn't matter, only the accusation. And once again, the MSM jackals run full tilt with the story, without adequate corroboration, as long as they had any chance of smearing President Bush. The decades long practice of MSM lies, smears, and propaganda against Republicans continues.
Dear God these people at CBS and in the MSM are desperate to bring down a sitting POTUS...at any cost. I suspect anything and everything reported as NEWS for the last half century from the MSM...
Kerry wants answers on missing explosives
"Are you keeping up with this on the thread about Hanoi Documents: Two recently discovered documents captured from the Vietnamese communists during the Vietnam War strongly support the contention that a close link existed between the Hanoi regime and the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) while John Kerry served as the group's leading national spokesman"
Here's the direct link to the WinterSoldier.com article that this WorldNetDaily article is summarizing:
What ironies! Bob Woodward and the press fought to bring to light the Watergate facts. Today, the MSM consciously avoids the facts and it is left to ordinary patriots to uncover the rot. Well done.
I've known all this (not about Kerry, specifically, but the war protestors) since my days in military intelligence. I never thought I'd see the day that a 'useful idiot' or worse, communist mole, would be nominated for the highest office in the land.

LOL!! The MSM is falling apart like the Tower of Sauron. First, CNN (especially Lou Dobbs) jumps from the sinking ship like rats, then NBC, and now ABC!! Also, ABC "surrendered" the Terrorist video to the CIA where the Kerry-fans terrorists threaten one of our largest (and liberal) cities with "blood running in the streets" and a calamity worse than 9/11.

It's all Karl Rove's fault. He moved the explosives before the war began. He is storing them in a foot locker in his basement.

THIS IS A HUGE SET OF LINKS, I CANT EVEN GO THROUGH THEM ALL.
But we may not need to - if the ABC News pans out, that only 3 tons remained, they will have proven this WHOLE STORY TO BE A DUD. 3 tons, out of 600,000 TONS That was in Iraq. No wonder the 101st didnt find anything - proof it wasnt there. Now we still have the curious IAEA statements that imply it was lost after their last inspection, so we have to cross check but ...
IF TRUE, TIME TO BUY BUSH FUTURES ON THE PRESIDENTIAL MARKET TRADING ... IF THIS IS TRUE, KERRY IS TOAST!!!

Don't expect the
NYT to apologize. They have already have cried a bucket over how they are so ashamed they let Judith Miller just go and publish all that WMD stuff...before they knew the truth...before they...didn't...but now they do...I think.
I really have a headache.

John Kerry is an IDIOT!! That is reason enough not to vote for him! That and the fact that he is a lefist, communist, terrorist-supporting liar...
It truly frightens me that there are people in this nation (and world) that are ignorant enough not to see what's right in front of their eyes...
To: backhoe
Outstanding post! I am truly shocked that ABC would actually air these facts. Now, the real question is, will Jennings, tomorrow night, state that, "We did not report what the Bush campaign says we reported!"
I'm sure most of you noticed that when Brokenjaw at NBC stated that they did not report what Bush was saying they reported, Tommie didn't bother to mention that they also did not report what Kerry was saying they reported. Complete CRAP!
Hey, Tommie, learn English!
