very well done indeed. You should get a job in the media-I think I know where an opening is coming up for an anchor position.
That's an extremely interesting piece. It held my interest, and really tied things together. Good job.
Shouldn't Mary Mapes be henceforth known as "Typhraud" Mary?
Tony Blankley last night, when this broke, on Scarborough, said flat out that Lockhart was lying..Joe said he spoke with Burkett, but supposedly NOT about the NG memos...the mind boggles..
I think you also have stir in the Kitty Kelley book and its supposed verification of the cocaine rumors that Dems have been circulating for years. The timing of 60 Minutes and the DNC wrapped around the book release very nicely. It would have been a crescendo of whispers and accusations that Danny could have self righteously demanded answers for right up until November 2.
This sort of stuff used to be their bread and butter.
But if they can't pull off a good old fashioned smear campaign like the old days, why should anyone vote for them?
Is the "fortunate son" campaign still going on?
Bush is not the "senator's son" written about in the song,
that would be the son Of Albert Gore, Sr......who spent 6 months in Vietnam as a reporter with bodyguards who wrote about operations he did not attend.
Pray for W and Our Troops
huh???
Terrific! Nice work!
It goes back to July 20, and in some cases, even before that.
Search FR for the thread "Is the DNC involved" for more details.
Here is my straw man for you to pick apart.
(1) Mary Mapes prepares the forged documents – Her own father said that she became a “journalist” because she had an axe to grind.
(2) Mapes either plants the documents for Bill Burkett to find or conspires with him.
(3) Burkett faxes the documents to CBS News (maybe just back to Mapes).
(4) Mapes prepares the story for the liberal talking head Ted Baxter ---- oops, I mean Dan Rather, knowing that he will fall for it.
(5) Mapes calls Lockhart to tell him that Burkett has “dynamite” evidence on Bush.
(6) Lockhart calls Burkett to get the details.
(7) Kerry campaign prepares “Fortunate Son” campaign.
(8) Rather goes on air with the story.
(9) Kerry campaign immediately follows with “Fortunate Son.”
CBS is stonewalling on the original source of the forged documents because they now knows it is actually CBS (Mapes).
Democratic Chairman Terry McAuliffe said the accusations were based on documents uncovered by the Associated Press and Boston Globe, not the disputed memos shown on “60 Minutes.”
But then Terry had to open his mouth to say that...which is a sure clue he just might be lying.
Thanks for posting this. It connects the dots. More people need to know about the evidence of collusion between the old media and the RATs. It has been SO blatent this election.
not bad at all.
