Field day ? The MSM is backing away from this memo like a crawdad from a hungry bass. So is John F'n Kerry, who promised to lead the charge for W's impeachment.
Looks like CBS just found their replacement for the nightly news.
Apparently, you can't follow directions. You were not suppose to burn the originals, just say they were in a safe place. Then we were going to burn YOUR place.
By the way, I'm not happy about my favorite, old IBM and it appears that you neglected to return my favorite element.
P.S. We'll probably still burn your place. DR
The FBI agent never said such a thing as Durbin claimed
I'm waiting for the Little boy Who Cried Wolf moment, when everbody hears something from MSM and just shrugs and says "Who the heck knows? What's on ESPN?"
At least we are in the fight now. We have been silent on this to long. We need a war room not just by tv but by radio and esp. the internet. Does anyone follow blogs and sites to find out what is being said. I hope we are not to late to the game. God help our president.
You know calling these memos the Downing Street Memos is a liberal technique to give creditability to the memos by attempting to tie the memos to Tony Blair whose residence as England's PM is No. 10 Downing Street. The Downing Street Memos are really the Fleet Street Memos. Fleet Street in London is the traditional home of the national press which we refer to as the MSM.
I bet the only difference is the changing of the word "affixed" to "fixed."
But, didn't you ever wonder? Freeh was head of the FBI and Reno was AG and the FBI lab was under tremendous pressure for many recent failures. The FBI could have said it was Abraham Lincoln's DNA and who could have said otherwise?
Think how easy it would have been to have the FBI lab say, "No Match." The whole thing would have gone away, easy-peasy! But, it didn't because Monica was a diversion, a big flash to take everyones' attention from the real crimes Willie was doing. Who would have thought there were Republicans with enough brass to impeach Willie?
Just because "rea;" fakes would have gone much farther doesn't make these documents "non-fakes." Often, (as with the stain) proof/admission of a little crime is enough to keep opponents away from the bigger crime. These are fakes and plausable, not outrageous, but still fakes.
Who cares anyway? It sure isn't the general public.
Regardless, I think we should sic Dan Rather on the story. I'm sure he will come up with something...right, Kenneth?

"They are probably not fake. If you fake something at least make it relevant and interesting. DSM does neither.
If they are fake then whoever did it needs to go to the Dan Rather seminar on false reporting held every other Wednesday night at the Washington Bureau of Newsweek Magazine."
Seriously. Who gives a s*** about this Downing Street Memo? It proves nothing.
Reminds me of Perry Mason's Case of the Elusive Element. I suppose by this standard the Jews need to disprove the "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion."

Why an old-fashioned typewriter?
Why indeed? So they would appear authentic? Why even bother if you were going to admit they were copies anyway?
The answer is that at some point the reporter intended these to be taken for the originals. If there is another credible explanation I'd love to know what it is.
They should issue straightjackets with their username's over there. There's an awful lot of insanity and inbreeding over at that place
The reporter has already admitted they are fakes. The question now is whether the information within is fake as well. Given how the documents don't really actually say anything without serious twisting, I suspect that they are probably based upon real documents.
How about "the Page 3 Memos", after said page on that bastion of good journalism, "The Sun"?
