Liberals Send Threatening E-Mails to Enron Journalists - 'Dig Harder' or else
Short Cuts Morning Update ^ | January 11, 2001 | L Dotter's Staff Reporters

Posted on 01/11/2002 6:27:20 AM PST by codebreaker

Wishing won't make it so

The Dems are such neophytes at whipping up public frenzy to tie Bush to the Enron collapse they have started an E-Mail campaign pleading (some say threatening) journalists to dig harder.

Don Van Atta Jr., the New York Times go-to guy for scandal connect-the-dot stories must have been on their list.

He's on the case already but is still forced to add the following sentence: "Although no one has suggested Bush has done anything wrong."

Stay Tuned.

Enron boredom looms.

>The Hillary vote scandal story will break soon, that is the one I would focus on.

Can you point me to a thread on this? I did a search and couldn't come up with it.

thanks, Dave

Democrat-voting friends ...unlimited knee-jerk insults to ... their ... faith...

Lessee, that must mean they're either Wiccans caught up in sacrificing, homosexual pedophiles, or UBL-trained terrorists, right?

Flattering photogenics are worth a thousand words to Dims. We know how they're disproportionately stimulated by imagery, and how relatively little of the written truth they comprehend.

From an MBA in Finance:

Get ready to be bored out of your ever-lovin' minds. This story will get very tehnical and the press will not understand a word of it. It'll go away fast due to the links with Clinton and his people, as well with current congressional critters.

Lay may never have dicussed the financial status of Enron but I'm certain Cheney did after each of the 6 meetings.

People are now saying the reason we don't see Cheney is because he's ducking a supoena (sp?), btw, I just heard a company lost 400,000,000 in their retirement account because of Enron.

It might also mean they are hard working, responsible, level-headed, caring adults capable of thinking and deciding for themselves -- and are not going to change their vote or their mind based on anything they might see or read on FreeRepublic. Quite the contrary, in fact, for a good 85% of what I've seen on this site.

...including your comments here.

Ok, I'm gonna pretend I'm Donald Rumsfeld:

"Lay may never have dicussed the financial status of Enron but I'm certain Cheney did after each of the 6 meetings.Really? How are you certain? Who would he have discussed it with? Why? Has Enron been helped in any way since his discussions with Dick Cheney? Thank you. Next?

People are now saying the reason we don't see Cheney is because he's ducking a supoena (sp?), btw, I just heard a company lost 400,000,000 in their retirement account because of Enron. What people? Do you have the names of these "people" or is it just "people" you know? What COMPANY? Did President Bush or Vice-President Cheney encourage them in any way to invest in Enron?

When you come back with the answers to those questions, I'll be more than happy to help you.

Excellent reply, DJ. You have obviously attended one of the Rumsfeld seminars. Good show!

It sounds as if you and those on whose behalf you're purporting to speak are awfully thin-skinned. Furthermore, you provide no evidence to substantiate that FreeRepublic presents "unlimited knee-jerk insults to [your Democrat-voting friends], their family, faith and friends".

The only thing unlimited about any of our written dialog here is your slander.

I think the mainstream media might be forced to give the Hillary Vote Scam story time because of the fact that she is a sitting NY Senator and Presidential candidate for 2004.

Possibly, but if they do the stories will have a "the Hillary-haters are at it again" tenor. Just like when their man-god Bill was president.

Hmmmmmmmm

"The Enron thing leads right back to the Clintons and other Demorats who were big on the "take money" list. Just because money was given in BOTH campaigns, doesn't mean with pointing fingers that anything is ...."

Good point:

This provides a lightning rod for the liberals who hate Bush. They are going to get themselves all worked about this and expend there energy chasing the proverbial holy grail "impeachment".

The plot sickens:

Fox News reported last night on her PAC, which has collected about a million dollars. One quarter of that has been given to other DemocRATs. Three quarters of it (about $750,000) has been used for "administration". Sounds like a Jesse Jackson operation.
