HARRY MACDOUGALD: “TRUTH” AND OTHER LIES (2)
Powerline ^ | OCTOBER 4, 2015 | Harry MacDougald (BuckHead)

Posted on 10/15/2015 8:32:47 PM PDT by FredZarguna

The film “Truth” will be released commercially later this month to retell the Rathergate scandal from the perspective of Mary Mapes. The film is based on Mapes’s almost laughable 2005 Rathergate memoir. The left routinely seeks to rewrite even yesterday’s news; events eleven years ago, when Mapes committed her misconduct, have now attained the status of ancient history. John and I therefore sought to reiterate the basic facts of the Rathergate scandal in the Weekly Standard article “Rather shameful.”

Our article is intended to constitute Rathergate 101. Now comes Atlanta attorney Harry MacDougald — the pseudonymous “Buckhead” — to give us Rathergate 102. ...

As promised, here is Part II of a critical set of blogs on the upcoming Orwellian-ly named Truth.

This installment was written by Buckhead himself.

Enjoy.

According to the ever brilliant Dana Perino, it was thanks to Powerline and LGF that the memos were debunked. I kept waiting for her to mention FR and Buckhead last week on Fox, but to no avail.

I mean, bump. I'm typing on a TX ANG typewriter with non-proportional font. Really.

I remember that night. Buckhead had it cracked within the hour. It was exciting but I always wondered whodunit. Who forged the documents?

Glad to hear from you again, buckhead.

“The ever brilliant.” They actually found someone on the panel dumber than Juan “brain cell” Williams. Ugh. She’s awful.

I think it's forbidden for any media source to say "Free Republic" without modifiers such as "The evil", "radical right wing", or maybe "#@#&&% - @&##5!!".

Fortunately, the rest of us know what Ms. Perino left out.
PS: (I was just as disappointed by her omission as Prince was.)

Well, isn’t that special. Definitive proof. Too bad it’s eight years too late. (/s)

Now that’s a riot!

Did Mr. Peabody and his Wayback Machine help you retrieve this historic document?

I suppose that when the movie is made, you want Cary Grant to play yourself, right?
