Roger stone - Republican Operative - Behind CBS Forged Docs?

The hot rumor in New York political circles has Roger Stone, the longtime GOP activist, as the source for Dan Rather's dubious Texas Air National Guard "memos."

The irony would be delicious, since Rather became famous confronting President Nixon, in whose service a very young Stone became associated with political "dirty tricks."

Reached at his Florida home, Stone had no comment.

I don't know about you, but I think this is great fun!

Oh yes me too. They just can't help themselves. They won't stop until they've ruined everyone on the left's credibility. I am happy to sit back and watch.

[Fresh Wind]

The DU is in a real tizzy over this one.

They have even discovered a "linkage" between Stone and Lucy Ramirez.

McAuliffe for DNC chair for life.

Lets hope so. He is so replusive, it's great he's on the Demorat side.

[BJungNan]

ROFL

[Starstruck]

He was a Republican before he was a Democrat?

[siunevada]

I don't know about you, but I think this is great fun!

This is turning into one of the best elections ever!

"I believe that TX dems are behind it."

That's where I would put my money. Occam's Razor..

[Dog]

Shhhhhhh.....Stone is Lucy........shhhhhhh.

Looks like the Dems (and their buds at CBS News) must be sweating bullets over
possible indictments/investigations.

Otherwise they'd not expend this much energy in "muddying the waters".

I wonder if McAuliffe, Rather and Mapes have been in a conference call with Oliver Stone...

Roger Stone and his wife got into trouble a few years ago by running an S/M Sex Club over the internet. He was getting alot of regular air time on Fox News in its early days, then that was it and little did we see of him (except an excerpt from his website showing him in his black leather and piercings).

[mewzilla]

Thanks. Sounds more like a gun for hire than an ideologue. Bet he's enjoying his fifteen more minutes thanks to that no comment comment. Talk about free advertising.

[Ironclad]

DU has been saying it was a Republican Party plot since the news broke the morning after the story aired. They were all raised on Oliver Stone conspiracy theories - they believe in that stuff. Just more DU tail chasing.

[atomicpossum]

Yeah. Republican makes documents to ruin Bush, then hands them off, knowing they would be handed off, passed up a hand to hand into the hands of a willing news organization that would use them to try to destroy the President, and none of the Dem DUpes would detect a fifth-level forgery. The news organization in question would overlook all the warnings from experts and familiars of the deceased individuals involved, breaches of military procedure, and lack of supporting evidence and jump in with both feet, falling completely under the genius of the Evil Republican Plan^tm!

They can see it all so clearly!

[Dog Gone]

I think he was a flake before he was a flake.

[6SJ7]

When do we let the DUmmies know Kerry is really a deep cover agent for Karl Rove? Oops! Was I s'pose to mention that?

[meyer]

"...refused to deny that he was the source the CBS documents."

As if a refusal to deny means anything. They haven't asked me yet, but I'll probably refuse to deny as well if they do. :)

[Fresh Wind]

Ah ha!! Roger and Oliver must be brothers!

[lavrenti]

I'm waiting for a strawberries moment.

[Buttaboom]

Sounds to me like Burkett, ticked off at CBS and oh, yeah, certifiably nuts, forgot to repeat the planned story and now McAwful's left to plant Stone's name in the vain hope that Burkett will see his picture and suddenly remember this is the guy in the cow patty field with the envelope.

I guess if they can't make the general public believe it's Rove and only Rove, they'll go for a surrogate. Idiots.

[SERKIT]

I think Dan Blather needs to lead his next broadcast with this excellent, factual, well-researched, and well-thought-through investigative report. It just HAS to be true because the contact said "no comment". That, my friends, is a GREAT confirmation of the facts.
