Why would they?
Outside of forgery (CBS,etc), today's "news" results from control OUTSIDE of America.
Halperin Memo Dated Friday October 8, 2004: for the country and the campaigns - and our responsibilities become quite grave
I do not want to set off (sp?) and endless colloquy that none of us have time for today
- nor do I want to stifle one.
Please respond if you feel you can advance the discussion.
The New York Times (Nagourney/Stevenson) and Howard Fineman
on the web both make the same point today: the current Bush attacks
on Kerry involve distortions and taking things out of context in a way
that goes beyond what Kerry has done.
Kerry distorts, takes out of context, and mistakes all the time, but these are not central to his (ed. ABC-supported) efforts to win.
We have a responsibility to hold both sides accountable to the public interest,
but that doesn't mean we reflexively and artificially hold both sides
"equally" accountable when the facts don't warrant that.
I'm sure many of you have this week felt the stepped up Bush efforts
to complain about our coverage.
This is all part of their efforts to get away with as
much as possible with the stepped up, renewed efforts
to win the election by destroying Senator Kerry at least partly through distortions.
It's up to Kerry to defend himself, of course.
But as one of the few news organizations with the skill and strength to help voters evaluate what the
candidates are saying to serve the public interest.
Now is the time for all of us to step up and do that right. "
And who is Halperin?
Halperin's father is none other than Morton H. Halperin,
head of George Soros' Open Society Policy Center.
Really? Very interesting.
Doug Brinkley just admited that Kerry has "night terrors".
Thanks for posting those pictures. I have never seen that horror up close before and I have resented the media for 'protecting' me. These are the images that need to be seared into the conscience of anyone wanting to go in and give the likes of a Michael Moore any credibility...
Dear Lord! Is that the WTC? I've never seen those pics. How disturbing.
How can we (the right) be accused of "destroying Kerry partly through distortions" when everything that has been brought up against him is factually correct. If it weren't, he would be able to prove otherwise, which he hasn't! I would say that he is factually destroying himself!!...and the sooner the better!
