More comment from Ardolino:

"Mary, no hard feelings? Even in forced retirement, Mapes continues her legacy of accuracy, as neither Powerline, nor Spacetown, nor INDC Journal worked anonymously during the scandal. I invite everyone to revisit my September archives and peruse the "wild and hateful claims" made by INDC. Good times.

"I will grant her one thing - the "school of sharks" analogy is pretty accurate, though her description of a helpless victim (a multi-million dollar respected professional news organization) is a bit ... off. And let's not forget who chummed the water."

Do Not attempt to adjust your computer. We control your thoughts and your keystrokes. You have now entered a world where there is total agreement and total lack of selfworth. You have entered the FREEPZONE.

Freepers began to repeat and embellish Buckhead's thoughts.

As opposed to hiring what,one or two "experts" to authenticate the documents without seeing them.

Her comments about how quickly her lies were unmasked displays why the fringe, radical, ultra-left still are unaware of the power of talk radio and the internet. They still believe that they can lie with impunity and have their detractors quieted by refusal of editors to run the complaint letters. Well, on the internet and on talk radio, their is no gatekeeper to squelch dissent. And there is always an expert at hand.

Try to slip a lie past a talk radio host and somebody who has expertise in that area is already listening. If they can get through, then the lie will be rebutted. On the internet, we don't have to wait to be selected to speak. Buckhead's observation simply allowed for a starting point where a coherent argument could be developed. Others, sometimes with specialized knowledge weighed in and the thread of a theory developed. A mighty brainstorming session.

By the end of the week, the far-left kook fringe was left arguing that there was equipment available in the market that could have produced a memo which looked remarkable like MS Word. They left open the reason why the Air Force would have purchased expensive specialized commercial typesetting equipment for use by untrained clerks for generating memos. And apparently this is the only military installation of its kind at the time with such high-end equipment.

Oh well. She hasn't been "proved wrong" yet. And she hasn't yet proved that she is not a lying producer.

NED: Elaine, when my father was black listed he couldn't work for years. He and his friends used to sit at Hop Sing's every day figuring out how to survive.

ELAINE: You're father was blacklisted?

NED: Yes he was, and you know why? Because he was betrayed by people he trusted. They "named names".

Mary, explain this image. How does the "Texas Air National Guard" memo match almost exactly with the same text typed in Microsoft Word on its default settings? Please, any explanation coming close to reasonable will at least start the discussion. Alien technology from Area 51 doesn't count, because the TANG didn't get that until the late 1970s.

She's right. What were we thinking? Why would we care if CBS used forged documents to try and bring down our leader? Does she even address that little fact?

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.

ROFLOL!! That's why I think some freepers might do me bodily harm if we ever came face to face....... 'cause we're all in 'lockstep.'

What a bunch of swill!!

Mary..................seek help.

Awww poor old helpless pitiful CBS attacked by huge numbers of Freepers. It just could not stand against the hundred or so Freepers demanding the truth.

So when is the next blockbuster horror movie coming out "When Freepers Attack"?

Stop picking on Mary--she has the face of a saint.





A Saint Bernard that is!

And that reminds me: did I ever tell you of the time Mizz Mapes saved my life when I was
killed in an avalanche while yodeling the Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps?
It's quite a story: she had this keg of Benedictine brandy around her neck . . .

She was right... she was unaware of reality (and still) and unarmed with authentic documents, ethics or even common sense.

I'm afraid it's too late for intervention.

Mapes can't play the race card, so she is playing the victim card. Poor tang, doz mean ole bloggers saw through her lie and she got caught in it. So, she blames the bloggers for catching her in her lie.

Seems ole Dan suffers from the same condition Mary suffers from.

This broad cares nothing about the truth.

She consistently finesses the fundamental issue in the CBS report. The weight of the evidence is clearly on the side claiming the memo was a forgery. For Mary Mapes, that FACT doesn't matter, because for that broad, the TRUTH and the FACTS are alway secondary concerns, not primary.

She is a broad after all.

Sean Hannity on radio yesterday shredded Mapes to the point I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Actually Mary mAPES, contrary to liberal spin, free thinkers do on occasion agree enmass on a particular subject. We always agree on the truth. Would you have us take turns as pro and con even when we are in full agreement, just to fit your opinion of what is free thinking???

Sorry Mary,unlike our wimpy Republican politicians, we the grass roots of Conservatism are just not that anxious to please you liberals and your MSM. As a matter of fact Mary, the more pissed off and shrill you jackals become, the happier we are.

You liberals are the enemy, Mary-you outed yourselves.

CBS was like some sunburned, overweight Florida tourist with a cut foot, floundering and flapping in the water alone in the surf...And let's not forget who chummed the water."

*SIGH* Ahhh...the poor "victims" :
Mary "See_BS" Maples, Sen. Edward "Swimmer" Kennedy, Micheal "Haliburton Stocks" Moore...et.al.

...and with such a "Target Rich" enviroment, too. :D
