It seemed appropriate. Considering the results.

"Lesson. Unless you know the person stroking you, wear protection."

Steffen is a seasoned political pro, so he should have known better than to be charmed into giving away his own identity.

But there are quite a few amatuers on Free Republic who could benefit from your advice.

You may want to keep the "might want to play dirty" comments to private email exchanges! Anyway, what makes you think some of those things don't or haven't occurred?

From NCPAC | 10/18/2004 7:14:44 AM PDT new Most people who write on this site are cool. However, a lot of lurkers peek in to see what the Right is saying. Especially after "Rathergate," FreeRepublic is one of the most watched blog/political sites in the world. As for MO'M, his day is coming. A lot of the reason that everyone knows his history is because of what has gone on beneath the surface.

| 10/18/2004 9:15:03 AM PDT replied FreeRepublic is the site that actually broke the "Rathergate" story. The first person to openly state the memos concerning GWB were forgeries was an FR poster named (I think) Buckhead.
Anyone can lurk on these boards and read what everyone is writing - except in private emails. Private emails are private.
I don't look for the MO'M story to hit for a little bit yet. Chances are Duncan will bring that hammer out when they start beating the hell out of one another in the Dem primary for Governor. However, a lot of what everyone knows about MO'M is because of work that has occurred. It's been a wild ride.

| 10/19/2004 3:44:04 AM PDT replied A few folks put in a lot of effort to ensure the MO'M story got some real float.
Did not see the story about the vet suing Sinclair. I'm not surprised to hear it's happening, though. There's always a patsy somewhere willing to do the BS work for the wrong side.
I do forsee Duncan and MO'M beating each other to a pulp. Hell, at this point I hope it's MO'M who wins the primary.

| 10/19/2004 3:41:51 PM PDT replied The MO'M story still does have float - so much so that at the premier of "Engine 49" in Baltimore, MO'M and Katie (his wife) were walking around telling the Governor and anyone who would listen that they were "Still together." That's all they'd say - the 'happy couple' would walk up to whomever and say "We're still together."
Further, certain reporters have the story and are holding it - at least for now.
I saw Lieberman got canned. Then I heard (don't know whether it's true) that Sinclair caved under pressure and are not mandating that their stations air "Stolen Honor." Sinclair's Mark Hyman is a protege of MD Governor Ehrlich. Ehrlich helped Hyman land the job at Sinclair.

I sent this post to you, did you get it? We need this kinda stuff in MD.

"There was a great article in the atlantic (lib mag my wife reads) about Rove. The writer whines all about Rove’s tricks, but they work and he is a genius. He got a rumor started about this dem judge who gave a lot of money to a charity for kids, so they took those pictures of the judge with the kids and said he was a gay pedophile. It worked.

Yes, something stinks.

MD4BUSH stinks. He has even posted the private emails so that they could easily be found by others.

A 1 week old newbie used professional flattery to break NCPAC's back.

In case anybody needs reminding: not all FReepers are your friend. There are not only trolls on this board, but plants, as well.

I think it's a good thing that people like Sidney Blumenthal, and his ilk on the left, are focusing in on us... They have one major problem though..... We have the truth on our side... All they have is "Bush Lied" and whatever their latest bogus accusation of the day might be.......

History will record these times as the downfall of the Democrat Party

The MD4Bush dump was at 11:14PM on 2/8. The original WaPo post - 11:34PM. The WaPo article could have been posted on the WaPo's site first though.

MD4Bush --- Care to comment? You didn't have any other post since last December, I think.

O'Malley Blames GOP Plot For Rumors (MD GOVERNOR'S AID FIRED FOR FREE REPUBLIC POSTS)

Washington Post ^ | 2/9/05 | Matthew Mosk
Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley yesterday accused agents of Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s administration of spreading false rumors that he had an extramarital affair, and Ehrlich responded hours later by dismissing a longtime employee. The mayor, a Democrat considering a bid for governor in 2006, said he believes that the widespread and persistent rumors were part of a "concerted and orchestrated and sustained" effort and called on the Republican governor to apologize to his wife and children. "I don't think any of us run for office expecting that this sort of hurt will be heaped on our kids or...
