Blogger Who Faulted CBS Documents Is Conservative Activist (L.A Times RATS out Buckhead!)
L.A Times ^
Posted on 09/17/2004 3:55:38 PM PDT by Redcoat LI
WASHINGTON It was the first public allegation that CBS News used forged memos in its report questioning President Bush's National Guard service a highly technical explanation posted within hours of airtime citing proportional spacing and font styles.
But it did not come from an expert in typography or typewriter history as some first thought. Instead, it was the work of Harry W. MacDougald, an Atlanta lawyer with strong ties to conservative Republican causes who helped draft the petition urging the Arkansas Supreme Court to disbar President Clinton after the Monica Lewinsky scandal, the Times has found.

I LOVE IT! The MSM is soooo snobby! Congrats to Buckhead from a fellow Atlantan.
In other breaking news "Republicans plan to vote for Bush!!" - oh the humanity!!

Well, we don't do any merchandising on FR. You might check with the people at 0cents.com ("Seeking the Truth" on FR) and see if he would like to do it.

"Is gambling going on in here too????"
You bet!!! We are gambling on the Silent majority to rise up and tell that low life Kerry that he's not wanted here by electing G.W.Bush!
It is my personal opinion that skerry should be hung for treason along with a few others!!!!!

It is so comforting to know, that when they deem necessaryIt is even more comforting to know the denizens who are the DU are dumber than they were yesterday and will be more dumb tomorrow than they are today.

Need to remember this.....it is a salient point! Any wounded animal is always going to be more viscious in its attempt to survive.

Journalists don't know nothin' about nothin'. Talking to them about any area of specialization is Rather like talking to your 70-year-old mom about current pop culture.

The Times identified him by piecing together information from his postings over the past two years,...Someone from the Times had to read through two years of postings on a Conservative site....must have been real painful for them...

We need an enterprising freeper that could put out a line of freeping PJ's. We could have freeping dorm shirts and slippers too. The very first line would be the Buckhead style with a little Buckhead logo. We need someone else to design these lines in all sizes from xxxx to infants,and a line of pet freeping jammies. We could have one design for freeping couples,another line could be former demrat convert freepers,etc,etc.

I think what this newspaper did goes well beyond indecency.
I know some of you are joking about this, but I think this is much more.
"Outing" the identity of someone online by combing through a persons posting history by this left-wing newspaper is sickening. I mean, jeez Louise, these RATS are nuts, and for them, these are desperate times. I mean, look at what a Kerry-lover did to a three year old yesterday in WV. Look at how they are turning violent with anyone who isn't an open-minded cavity of hot air.
And while I respect those at the top of FR, I have to say that I respectfully disagree that protecting our private information is going to prevent this from happening again.
A new FReeper could join and fly a New Jersey flag. Great. We've narrowed down a search right there.
That new FReeper could begin to chime in to military threads, and contribute he came back from Iraq 4 days ago to attend his mother's funeral. Many FReepers high five him, and he thanks them all. Maybe he mentions that his mother had cancer, but that she had the best of care for years at a hospital in NY city. A FReeper posts an inquiry about the type of cancer, and whom she saw in the city. The new FReeper, wanting to help, says he'll consult with his uncle who's a neurosurgeon at Hopkins, since it was his uncle who made the recommendation.
Weeks later, he's back in Iraq. He posts to the canteen about his favorite music artist. Someone mentions something in the thread about being a fan of the same one. Several chime in about their recollections from concerts years ago.
New FReeper once saw them in Jackson, NJ at Great Adventure back when he was in college.
In another thread about some corrupt politician from Freehold, NJ, new FReeper joins into the thread, adding that he went to the same grammar school as the politician, and he can vouch the guy is a straightshooter, and a good guy.
I think that if you are an active FReeper, and contribute regularly, I will bet you that even the most careful of people could be "found out." Even my hypothetical "new FReeper" has given plenty of information to piece together. Right now, I'd know from scrolling back through posts, that HE is from NJ. HE is an OFFICER in the MILITARY & is DEPLOYED overseas. HIS MOTHER DIED on such and such a date. She probably lived in NJ. One of the NEUROSURGEONS at JOHNS HOPKINS is his UNCLE. Dah--dah-dah-dah-dah.
Picking out even one single clue from every 200 posts from a FReeper who's posted over 4, 5, 8 thousand times, and anyone's anonymity is down the toilet. Keeping a searchable archive a FReeper's history limited to a six month period, in my opinion, is a prudent barrier to intrusive freaks.

Blogger Who Faulted CBS Documents Is Conservative ActivistWow! Big discovery. This guy is really bright. Apparently he read the mission statement of FReerepublic.com. Impressive.
Free Republic is an online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America. And we always have fun doing it. Hoo-yah!
A real rocket scientist.

It is amazing what hypnotic power the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy has over hapless democrats. They made Dan Rather bet his reputation on the fake memos, in spite of the objections of CBS's own experts and Killian's family. They also made Bill Clinton drop his pants with Monica and then lie about it.

"The facts are the facts! Who cares! In a related story, Dan Rather was outed by Buckhead as a Communist who is guilty of trying to swing a federal election."
Exactly! Did they expect a liberal to break the story?
