Mary Mapes Gloats About Pending Obama Victory and Demise of Free Republic
Friday, October 24, 2008 | Kristinn

Posted on 10/24/2008 7:50:22 AM PDT by kristinn

Mary Mapes, the former CBS News Sixty Minutes producer who lost her job in the wake of the Rathergate scandal has published an essay entitled The Monster is Dying at the Huffington Post celebrating the pending victory of Barack Obama and the demise of her conservative internet tormenters, including Free Republic.

Mapes likens the domination of conservatives and the McCain-Palin campaign to Fifties sci-fi flicks where the mad scientist gets it in the end but the pretty female assistant survives.

Mapes, who was fired after forged documents were used in a Sixty Minutes hit piece on President George W. Bush in September 2004 in an effort by CBS News to undermine Bush's re-election bid, mocks Republicnas for using "phony" imagery and "bogeymen."

An excerpt from Mapes' gloat-fest:

Americans aren't responding to the old plays -- the fake fears, the faux outrage, the conservatives who yell "Communist" at the news cameras, the pompous right-wing bloggers who once held such sway.

I know all too well how scary and effective these old tactics were in 2004.

Today, they are toothless.

Ha, ha.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing once swaggering players like Powerline, Free Republic and Little Green Footballs forced onto the sidelines, left to limply watch this campaign pass by like a parade in which they play no meaningful part.

They just don't matter anymore.

Lord, God, if there are any redeemable cells in her body or being, then by whatever miraculous fiery furnace, bring her to abject utter wholesale confession and repentance and spare her from hell.

Otherwise, Lord, may she reap what she has sown with 100 fold interest on top of it and that speedily, dramatically, vividly as a glaring example of the consequences of outrageous hypocrisy; treason; rebellion and evil.

In Jesus’ Name.

Let any who feel led to pray similarly agree as led.

Mary Mapes?? That bitter and twisted leftist hack who tried to steal the 2004 election with her monstrous hoax?

Any outlet that airs or publishes her is automatically discredited.

DFU SONGS | 11-2005 | Lyrics, Doug from Upland

<

MIDI - MORE THAN A FEELING

She woke up one morning and her job was gone
Suits in the boardroom said go away
The docs were phony the FReepers showed
For her and Dan it's a bad hair day

(musical break)

She was sent reeling...she tried to hurt Dubya
Her dirty dealing...had been stopped, and she started to cry
But watch Mary Mapes...still telling lies

(musical break)

So many people she had deceived
Hatred of Bush made them blind with rage
She's claiming that she...did nothing wrong
And she is stuck on the same old page

On the same old page

(musical break)

She was sent reeling...she had tried to hurt Dubya
Her dirty dealing...had been stopped, and she started to cry

LOL, Larry David has an article on there today. He's on the verge of a nervous breakdown from MDS/PDS.

If Obambi loses there better be a pychiactric ambulance standing by.

I figure MSNBC might ... if Chris’ leg quits tingling.

Hey, she knows what she is talking about, the election results have already been faxed to her from a Kinkos in Texas.

Word of advice, Mary...a jar of peanut butter and a loaf of bread will help you stretch your dollars, you loser.

Just what have Conservatives on any forum gotten in the last 8 years of the Bush Presidency? It has been the largest expansion of government in history, the largest increase of financial burden on taxpayers that its own government ridicules on a daily basis.

I just don’t see what conservatives have gotten.

Is Mapes the producer who was deemed so untrustworthy that even ultra-liberal CBS had to fire her for “lapse of judgment” or some such?

I feel sorry for her. I presume she is unemployable.

But, then again, she’s a liar, so she pretty much deserves at least temporal judgment.

Interesting. We’re Frankenstein mosters in one sentence - implying a terrible, powerful force - and irrelevant in the next.

If we’re so irrelevant, why bother to write about us?

Her state of denial about her lies is astounding.

Didn’t we become big when Clinton was in office? I think
we could see even more growth


The only danger a President Obama presents to FR is servers melting
down with new traffic!

Heck, Obama shouldn't be able (legally) to shut FR down under the
resurrected "Fairness Doctrine".

Because FR gets posts on stories about Republicans, Democrats,
Independents, Liberatarians, Greens, and none-of-the-above.
No matter HOW crazy they are!!!

And here we see once again the way the left encourages and welcomes the free exchange and debate of ideas...

Mary, you are FREE to dislike, hate, mock and belittle people who disagree with your ideas and beliefs.

Apparently you would prefer that some do not enjoy that same FREEDOM.

So Mary- think about this for a little while over the weekend. When you look around the world, and you observe countries that squelch dissent, that pass clever laws against freedom of expression- what label would you give those countries?

Take your time Mary, think about it..

Lord, God, Almighty . . . you exhorted us to open our mouths and ask largely of you.

Accordingly, Lord, for every

—for every voting citizen of the USA who reads her diatribe and agrees with it—

MAY YOUR ANGELIC FORCES AND HOLY SPIRIT CAUSE 12 UNDECIDED VOTERS TO CHOOSE MCCAIN/PALIN IN VOTING EARLY AND ON ELECTION DAY.

AND

—for every voting citizen of the USA who reads her diatribe and agrees with it—

may 10 of the fiercest Obama supporters get drunk, get embroiled in relationship conflicts; have car trouble; become discouraged; be confused about the day; catch a cold and be bedridden; and whatever other ways be prevented from voting.

AND

for every voting age USA citizen who reads and agrees with her diatribe . . .

may your angelic forces and Holy Spirit cause 50 illegal voting fraud votes for Obamma to be canceled, removed, not count.

In Jesus’ Name—so let it be said. So let it be done. Amen. Let any who feel led to pray similarly agree and so pray.

So says the psychotic lying RAT who was caught with face-up in the mouse-trap:

"Nothing makes me happier than seeing once swaggering players like Powerline, Free Republic and Little Green Footballs forced onto the sidelines..."

Hey Mary - While "on the sidelines" WE brought you DOWN. HARD. How did it feel?? Still limping after all this time? Aaaw, poor baby...Here's another box of kleenex.

Thanks for the reminder that it still hurts that WE exposed YOU; Or the fact that we and many out there still consider the name 'Mary Mapes' a laughing stock. You're still our trophy.

Btw, nice Kinkos forgery, you sloppy ditz. Bwwaaahaa!!!

Still unemployed, huh, Mary?

*snicker*

Apparently, juvenile bitterness is something potential employers are looking for. She's just polishing up her resumé.

Not for long. Once Presidentissimo Obama is inaugurated, Mary and many other low-level MSM functionaries will have wonderful new jobs at the re-education camps. There will be much work to do.
