Mary Mapes Names Names [tries to trash FreeRepublic]

Mary Mapes Names Names ("Anonymous" Ones)

Posted by Bill

An excerpt from page 201 of her new book:

Within minutes of Buckhead's original posting, Freepers began to repeat and embellish Buckhead's thoughts. Not surprisingly, they all agreed with him, they all agreed with one another, and they all agreed this should be pursued aggressively. Freethinkers they are not. The Freepers and their lockstep like-minded fellow travelers moved as a group, like a school of sharks sweeping toward an unaware and unarmed victim. CBS was like some sunburned, overweight Florida tourist with a cut foot, floundering and flapping in the water alone in the surf. The Freepers swarmed CBS not because it was right or fair but because they could.

On Web sites such as Powerline, INDC Journal, Allahpundit, and Spacetownusa, the bravehearts of the blogging world worked anonymously in what appeared to be huge numbers, in unison, to destroy the Bush-Guard story, to uphold one another's wild and hateful claims, to outshout, outargue, and outblog anyone who dared to disagree. And on their Web sites there is no disagreement. They hate in unison, they speak with one angry voice, they each make themselves bigger by staying as close together as possible.

If we returning Vientam Vets had had Freerepublic.com at our disposal to combat the media lies WALTER CRONKITE & DAN RATHER were telling that American People about what we were doing in Vietnam...

You may mean an example like " The Wall Within", a "documentary" shown in 1988, just before elections, by CBS and no other than Dan Rather.

Rather searches and finds six Vietnam vets who are still suffering because of the unspeakable atrocities they committed in Vietnam.
This "story" went on for a full hour.

One BIG problem. It was all a FRAUD, or perhaps a "forged" story.

B.G.Burkett(no not that Burkett), in his book, Stolen Valor, tracked these "vets" down....and you'll never guess....5 of the six had never been to Vietnam, and the 1 who had was never in combat.

When Burkett confronted Rather with these facts, Rather's response was...you guessed it....WE STAND BEHIND THE STORY.

I think it goes beyond the "do no wrong" idea.

I think that she is continuing the negative propaganda against, might as well lump it together, us, even at the risk of ridicule. She's still pushing her agenda even though her main outlet is blocked.

Remember Hillary complaining that because of Fox News and Rush and FR, "they" could not get their message out? Mary is still trying to get hers out, even though us unfree thinkers here dump on her.

The sociopath always portrays himself as a victim. And in some ways, Mary is a victim ... a victim of the truth.

...who instead of coming in to cover us in the Valley of Death that was the IA DRANG Valley of 40 years ago, exactly,

...went to a rear field hospital at Pleiku Airstrip over 30 miles away to record for the American People how much one badly wounded in action hero soldier thought the Vietnam War "sucked" as his leg was being prepped for amputation.

Every time I see another Mapes story all I can do id I shake my head and wonder HOW MANY TIMES over the decades did Mapes and Rather and CBS and all the rest of the liberal Democrat newsrooms GET AWAY with their forgeries, lies, and malicious distortions?

Those days are all over, Mary. The Free Republic goon squad is in charge now, lol.
Have a lousy retirement, you pos.

Honorable Viet Nam Vet's
ALWAYS do what's best for their country,
including calling for the outing a of traitor
in the US Senate.

Honorable Viet Nam Vet's
do what's needed to protect President Bush
from attacks from the traitor and his followers.

There is no need to impeach Hanoi Kerry from the US Senate

He is there illegally!

WAKEUP AMERICA!

For those who "forgot" what Hanoi Kerry
did in the past read on and learn the truth.

Hanoi Kerry was still a USNR officer while he:
gave false hearsay testimony to Congress
negotiated with the enemy
helped the US lose a war
abetted in the deaths of millions
created a hostile environment for all servicemen

Why is Kerry still in the US Senate?
This is in violation of
U.S. Constitution Amendment 14 Sec 3
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.amendmentxiv.html

And the FBI has proof of his treason.

Hanoi Kerry Timeline of a traitor
includes FBI files

May 1970
Kerry and Julia traveled to Paris, France and met with Madame Nguyen Thi Binh, the Foreign Minister of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of Vietnam (PRG), the political wing of the Vietcong, and other Viet Cong and Communist Vietnamese representatives to the Paris peace talks, a trip he now calls a "fact-finding" mission.

(U.S. code 18 U.S.C. 953, declares it illegal for a U.S. citizen to go abroad and negotiate with a foreign power.)

http://www.archive-news.net/Kerry/JK_timeline.html

a) A person charged with absence without leave or missing movement in time of war,
or with any offense punishable by death,
may be tried at any time without limitation.

As soon as Buckhead and his family leave for the afternoon
I'll sneak in and boil his bunny because everyone knows
that I'm the one he really loves...

I seriously believe that Mary Mapes is divorced from reality.

Her statements are how she'd like the world to be, not as it is in reality. She just makes it up as she needs to to protect her self-esteem.

In a world where everything is equally good, morally equivalent, where everyone gets a trophy at the soccer tournament, this is the kind of insanity that results.

That Elvis is dead is our word against hers...

Actually, Elvis more alive than her career or reputation.
