What's really amazing, Rather is now accusing Ashcroft of being out to get him, for calling the media and alerting them to his Imus calls. I for one, have emailed every media outlet I can think of to expose Rather's lies, so no doubt others have too. Rather must be feeling the heat.

But what I found most amusing, Dan Rather used a year old CBS Jim Stewart article to prove Ashcroft had prior knowledge of terrorists threats against commercial airlines. Quite the opposite is true...the article never mentions terrorists, but it clearly states Ashcroft's own security detail made him stop flying commercial airlines because he was receiving personal death threats. (I had included a link to this Stewart article to all the media outlets I wrote, because on my own, I remembered that back last summer, John Ashcroft was receiving death threats.)

Thanks for your efforts in exposing this Marxist propagandist scumbag.

Rather appears to be whacking...Savage claims liberalism is a mental disorder.

And no doubt some of those death threats, were generated by the poisonous confirmation process that conservatives must endure. As to the Daschle interview, step one for Daschle was to make an accusation, and when called on it state that it was a question. It is his duty to ask questions. He then stated that both the pres and vice pres were lying about calling him to ask him not to investigate. My experience has led me to believe(remember shadow gov) that the administration will come out with a very delicate indication that they have proof they are not lying. Daschle is playing chicken hoping that the administration will not call his bluff. Since the press never follows up on these things, its a pretty cheap way for Daschle to get a cheap shot in with no political consequences in the press.

As to the fact that the intelligence committees had the same information of the president, it made me laugh when he said it was inadequate because it was not on one piece of paper.(and without big words and lots of pictures.) Maybe we should all send Daschle one piece of paper, so he can put all his intelligence information on it. He looked stooopid in the extreme. Can't wait for the administrations response.

regards

Regarding Rather, wasn't it Golberg who said that Rather has become the thing he hated the most, Nixon, with his strange persecution complexes and enemies? More proof that Goldberg was right.
