Free Republic

My unbelievable and painful visit

There is no getting around it in my opinion. The Republican position on health care is a weak one. I recommend that the president steer clear of making statements on the issue and seriously consider pulling his ads on it. Although an alternative to a government run health care system (as envisioned by the Democrats) would be desirable, just letting the current situation fester with virtually no government regulation is getting us nowhere fast.

I can see it now. MCClellan and troops sitting around a table saying, "Now you take these fake docs and go to the Texas National Cattle Convention, find Bill Burkitt and throw them at him. Then, make sure he gets to talk to someone high up on the Kerry side. And then, above all, make sure our friends at CBS know about this and get the story...

How does CBS explain the 2 (out of the 6) memos that weren't run on the show? One of their experts disputed the one that she saw and examined. Cherry picking veracity (memos) from the same source implies that they knew that they were all false. Perhaps they ran with the least likely to be detected of the litter.
