It isn't as bad as the one the Stevenson dirty tricksters did to Mamie Eisenhower. In 1952,they spread the lie that Mamie was a drunk. But that never made the news....just every single piece of campaign material and a full out whispering campaign.

Still and all,c BS and the other MSM media outlets have been pulling this stuff for many decades. They got away with it,because there was no talk radio per se,no FOX NEWS,and especially no FR!

I know campaigns spread lies..but the collusion between a major media orginazation and a campaign in spreading a lie is BAD!USA Today...investigation of Mapes/Kerry Campaign connections...

Buchanan..breathing fire...saying Rathers should have been expressing more outrage at Burkett...thinks there's more.
CBS ex, Klein....making excuses for Dan.

(Love Klein.... that pretentious fool gave us the "men in their living rooms in their pajamas" quote!)

Remember how the MSM spread the Democrap spin that Nancy Reagan was shallow, a spendthrift, she wore borrowed gowns from the major fashion houses (the MSM made this into a HUGE scandal). They savaged her so badly that in effect they ruined her reputation and sidelined her.

They would have got away with it if the dummys forged it with a damm typewriter!... that the telling point.... it is the exception that they do a dirty trick this badly!... 99 out of 100 time they get away with it and we can't do a damm thing... they done it for years!
