Dan (Rather) Wants Second Go At Bush! (Still Insists Memogate Story Is True!)

New Yoork Post ^ | Don Kaplan

[MindBender26]

September 28, 2005 -- DAN Rather wants to reopen the investigation into President Bush and the National Guard story that resulted in the Memogate scandal and led to his early departure from the anchor desk. But his bosses at CBS have forbidden him to go back at it, he said.

"CBS News doesn't want me to do that story," Rather said. "They wouldn't let me do that story,"

Rather continues to insist that the story was correct and suggested in the interview that he and the network may have been set up by some outsider.

"There are some strange, and to me, still mysterious things," he said. "Certainly unexplained things that happened about how it got attacked and why, even before the program was over," Rather said.

The report, delivered by Rather last September, was discredited two weeks later after drawing fire, first from politically conservative Web logs and later from mainstream media.

"I believed in the story," Rather said. "The facts of the story were correct.

"One supporting pillar of the story, albeit an important one, one supporting pillar was brought into question," he said. "To this day, no one has proven whether it was what it purported to be or not."

They were all disloyal. I tried to run the ship properly by the book, but they fought me at every turn. If the crew wanted to walk around with their shirttails hanging out, that's all right, let them! Take the towline - defective equipment, no more, no less. But they encouraged the crew to go around, scoffing at me and spreading wild rumors about steaming in circles and then 'Old Yellowstain.' I was to blame for Lieutenant Maryk's incompetence and poor seamanship. Lieutenant Maryk was the perfect officer, but not Captain Queeg. Ah, but the strawberries! That's, that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, and with, with geometric logic, that, that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox did exist. And I would have produced that key if they hadn't pulled the Caine out of action. I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officer. (He pauses - looks at all the questioning faces that stare back at him, and realizes that he has been ranting and raving.) Naturally, I can only cover these things from memory...

Dearest Mr Ra^ther,

A lie, even when in print, is still a lie.

Your ra^ther biased disposition has left you with a ra^ther sad legacy

Dan is living a newsman's nightmare. He is like the ball player who made a stupid mistake in the last inning of the last game of the world series. You live with it forever. Dan's predicament is even worse. The ball player didn't try to ruin his legacy, Dan premeditated his demise.

As for me? I love it. These libs get away with worse than this, it's high time one pay for his lies.

Dan will not be remembered for all his other stories. He will be marked by this one. He has realized it now, and doesn't know what he'll do.

See a shrink Dan. Get some help. Let go buddy, let go.

bout how it got attacked and why, even before the program was over," Rather said.

He got that from Mary Mapes who read Buckhead's initial post but didn't know that the default time zone on FR's time stamp is PST.

Shhhhhh! Stop giving away our secrets. The MSM is so provincial they aren't even aware that not everyone uses Eastern Standard Time.

[Paleo Conservative]

Dan went to Baghdad but I never saw Dan and Baghdad Bob in the same place at the same time. Baghdad Bob has disappeared, do you think there's any chance Dan IS Baghdad Bob?

[Paleo Conservative]

Following that reasoning; Bill Clinton raped Juanita Broderrick and Hillary had Vince Foster Killed.

No own has proven that Dan Rather's mother wasn't a prostitute either.

[concrete is my business]

I read that Mapes book is just out.

I guess that is why Dan Rather is talking again about this (his biggest failure).

Mapes says Dan told her F.E.A. (F*** Em All) when FR nailed them.

I think Mapes says they used the code F.E.A. often.

[concrete is my business]

RE: "why did CBS use it as an important supporting pillar of their story?"

Yup.

It seems Mr. Rather built the house on sand.

Mr. Rather was so busy looking at the view that he never looked at what was under his feet.

It happens all the time.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Mary Mapes Update: http://www.powerlineblog.com/

She's already had her 15 minutes. She thinks bloggers were obsessing over "peripheral" spacing. Stupid and arrogant. This cements her reputation for being blind to the obvious.

How to spot the "Move On FReepers"
The tried and true easy way to spot
the real trolls on FR

---

Read my tagline and look for the Move On "FReepers"

1) Who don't care what hanoi kerry is up to.

2) Or believe that hanoi kerry is behind the anti-war movement.


3) "Swear" that hanoi kerry is finished
and everyone should "get over it" while
anyone who knows hanoi kerry
knows he and hanoi jane
are behind the current lies
and anti-war movement now,
just as they were in the 60's and 70's.

4) Refuse to uphold
U.S. Constitution Amendment 14 Sec 3
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.amendmentxiv.html
and condone the traitor remain in the US Senate.

5) They "swore" klintoon, hitlery, hanoi kerry, sanbdi ber(bur)glar, al bore, jane beno,
wouild be prosecuted for
pardongate, chinagate, the bribes in upstate NY in the 2000 NY Senate race, waco, etc, etc,
"when" the "time was right".

6) Become irrational in their posts when
confronted with real facts.

Why are the "Move On FReepers" so careful NOT to attack hanoi kerry
head on and refuse to join in the demand to oust the traitor from the US Senate?

The "Move On FReepers" are going to hate Judge John Roberts

"If the Constitution says that the little guy should win,
the little guy's going to win in court before me.
But if the Constitution says that the big guy should win, well,
then the big guy's going to win,
because my obligation is to the Constitution. That's the oath," he said.

So when you spot a "Move On FReeper"
(really there is only a very tiny minority of them FR)
learn to watch what you say to "them".

They will screech and howl when you corner them with the truth.

[hispanarepublicana]

Mr. HR and I were discussing this the other night, and we were laughing about the fact that Dan Rather, et. al., think FReepers are PAID political operatives. We were laughing about how much money we'd have if, in fact, the G.O.P. were PAYING us by the hour to be FReepers. Then, we thought about crying......
