Audio: Dem Congressman says it’s “likely” Rove planted the Rathergate memos

If Rove really has all the power people give him credit for, he should run for president.. he should be able to end all wars, destroy all terrorists, end hunger and aids and fix New Orleans all with a phone call.

[William Tell]

Doesn't Dan Ra^ther still claim that the memos are authentic? Evidently the author doesn't believe Captain Dan.

[mnehring]

was he the guy who 'never thought that this would impact liberal talk shows..'? (ie, the fairness doctrine in his mind, wouldn't require liberal shows to have conservative balance..)

[GoLightly]

Anyone know what Hinchey uses when he posts at DU?

[mnehring]

Not sure about Hinchey, but his staffers do post there:

Although I don't believe Rove did it, I will add a favorite quote:

You can't cheat an honest man.

[mnehring]

I wonder if MDMC is one of his staffers, he posts a lot for him..

Hinchey sounds like the drug addict trash when they get arrested for possession and selling illegal drugs: "Hey Dude, I was working undercover for the Narks and DEA!"

Shameful and dangerous.

If Rove really has all the power people give him credit for, he should run for president.. he should be able to end all wars, destroy all terrorists, end hunger and aids and fix New Orleans all with a phone call.

Hell why not? He is, after all, a magnificent bastard.

Wow, that's the first time after the November elections, I have seen the "Rove, you magnificent bastard!" pic.

[unkus]

The Dems have certainly lost touch with reality. Unfortunately, they have put us all in jeopardy. Our very survival is dependent on people who put ideology and power before the good of the country.

[popdonnelly]

You're out of line, Congressman. Put up or shut up.

[Brilliant]

It can't be Rove. According to Dan Rather, the memos were genuine.

[You Dirty Rats]

This is Ithaca's Congresscritter, so this probably qualifies for a "City of Evil" Ping.

[Enchante]

Another shameless lying Demagogue hack sounds off. If any of the Demagogues really truly believed such crap, they would have had private investigators and (probably) FBI agents crawling all over this matter for the past 2+ years. The fact that the Demagogues went totally silent about any matters of finding the "real forgers" ala OJ and his "real killers" is a good indication that Demagogues like Hinchey know they are completely full up of bull feces.

[rintense]

OH BROTHER!!!

[GoLightly]

LOL With over 1000 posts... Know if it's someone on his political staff or are they on his Congressional staff? IOW, I wonder if taxpayers are footing the bill for that kind of political activity?

[jazusamo]

Yep, it sure disappeared after the election. It's amazing what a genius he was before this last election then overnight became a moron, I guess that's politics.
