I haven't really been following this, but something doesn't add up here. Why would Md4Bush use a Democratic Party e-mail address, especially when it's so easy to get a yahoo or hotmail account? Are they really that stupid?

Obviously someone needs to take Dirty Politics 101. Day one: never, ever, ever leave a trail, because it will be discovered.

I think you answered your own question.

That was my thought too - they'd use an anonymizer and a freebie email address. But then Mary Mapes and Bill Burkett didn't think to use a monospaced font for their little creations, so I guess anything is possible.

Possibly, like liberal ideology in general, it was not all that carefully thought through. Signing up for an FR handle may have started out as curiosity prompted by the attention focused on conservatives bloggers by the MSM and only gradually evolved into "Oh, boy, let's see how much damage we can do..." Sort of like a Beavis and Butthead type running excitedly with a lit M80 in his hand that he then forgets to throw. That may be pretty close to the truth about liberals in general. You can see what is going to happen and when the firecracker explodes in the liberal's hand only he (or she) is surprised.

But there always is a trail. If they want to subpoena the Yahoo account info, there it is.
