    AGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am about to come unglued here. Democratic talking head Joe Lackheart is on FOX’s Big Story right now and he is playing John Gibson playing like a cheap fiddle! Every time Gibson would ask him about the counter dictions concerning the missing 380 tons of HE Lackheart would immediately go into the Democratic spin of this was all Bush’s fault, these explosives are in the hands of terrorists now because of Bush’s incompetence, and let’s not forget the old worn out when it looks positive in this situation – how DARE anyone question the HEROISM of John Kerry...

    The New York Times and CBS News have been caught attempting to influence the outcome of the Presidential election by the nature and the timing of a story out of Iraq. At a minimum, the story was to be disturbing. At a maximum it was timed to be devastating to the campaign of President Bush. Briefly, the New York Times ran a story about a gillion tons of high explosives having disappeared from a storage facility in Iraq. The piece indicated it had been stolen sometime after the coalition forces had taken control of Iraq which John Kerry jumped on...

    The Clinton-Kerry-Clinton “Connection” by Col. Bob Pappas, USMC, Ret. The Clintons are on the Kerry bandwagon, or so it seems, after all, they and their former team are full swing on the Kerry campaign team or in support of it; there are Paul Begala, Joe Lockhart, and James Carville to name a few. Additionally, Ms. Clinton makes periodic statements supporting the erstwhile Senator; and, it is widely known that Mr. Clinton has had a number of lengthy conversations with Kerry in regards to his “campaign.” But, why? It is widely assumed, if not known, that Ms. Clinton has Presidential aspirations...

    http://jb-williams.com/10-5-04.htm How to support Kerry for President Written by JB Williams ©2004-10-05 In order to cast a vote for John Kerry, you first have to believe he is fit to be Commander-in-Chief. Now some don’t believe he is, namely 95% of all the decorated vets who served beside him in Vietnam, more than 70% of all living retired military personnel, and more than 80% of those serving in combat today. But what do they know? Besides, as the Democratic Party points out at every opportunity, what Right do these people (who spill their blood for our freedom) have to speak...

    Heard on the hour's news: The Kerry Campaign is now insisting that the warning lights mounted at each candidate's podium be disconnected before tonight's debate. All had previously agreed that there would be 15 second warning lights mounted at each podium to let everyone know that the speaker's time was ending. Kerry Campaign is now panicing at the thought that Mr. Debater will not have enough time for each answer he wishes to give, and are demanding that the lights be removed. The debate organizers, to their credit, are refusing, since both campaigns agreed to have the lights. To this,...

    E-mail to Candidate Kerry #17 From: James (Cooter) Thompson re: Defeating our Enemies Dear Senator Kerry: The guys down to Daryl's Bait shop here in Lagniappe, Louisiana have asked me to write to you about a number of things that came up recently during your campaign. We notice that you yourself never said a word about those forgeries that Dan Rather at CBS acquired from a Texas guy who is nuttier than a pecan pie and twisted like a pretzel—embittered and deranged, you might say. But, Joe Lockhart, your "senior consultant" was involved with that Mary Mapes, Mr. Rather's producer....

    When "60 Minutes" producer Mary Mapes set up contacts between the source who gave her forged documents on President Bush's military record and top Kerry campaign strategist Joe Lockhart, it wasn't the first time she had violated the most basic journalistic rules. Just four years ago, Mapes was accused of concocting a scheme to help secretly pass information between convicted white supremacist Peter Langan and another federal prisoner at a Colorado penitentiary, a violation of federal regulations. In a Nov. 20, 2001, letter to Mapes and her boss, Jeff Fager, J.E. Gunja, warden at the federal penitentiary at Florence, Colorado,...

"I took your advice, I called the DNC, I asked for Joe, I was refered to an answering machine or a real human, I chose the real human who’s name was “Stephanie”, she answered “Bush-Kerry”........REALLY, SHE REALLY DID.

    ABC News' Beth Loyd reports: "When the news broke that Joe Lockhart had talked to Bill Burkett, the troops huddled at the front of the plane for almost the duration of the 40-minute flight from Cincinnati to Cleveland, and they all looked very serious. When asked about the story, a spokesman honestly seemed to have no idea about it and after having read the story said, 'this is nothing. They already knew that Cleland talked to Burkett.'" But his face did not show indifference."

    So far, Ellis' prediction of second-day anti-Mapes revelations has proved eerily prescient. And Joe Lockhart is in on the Save-Dan-By-Throwing-Mary-Overboard conspiracy! ... P.S.: I don't understand why it would have been wrong for Mapes to ask Lockhart to call Bill Burkett as part of a deal to get the documents. If the documents hadn't been phony that would have been smart journalism, no? A harmless favor to produce a big scoop. It only looks like partisanship on the part of Mapes if it was not part of an implicit deal to get the story--i.e., if Mapes was just freelancing with...

    Bush campaign spokesman Steve Schmidt is circulating a list of quotes from the Kerry campaign denying any involvement with the memos, and a quote from Joe Lockhart telling George Stephanopoulos that he had nothing to do with them. ABC’s George Stephanopoulos reported that Lockhart denied having “Anything to do with these documents.” STEPHANOPOULOS: “I should say, just before we got on the air, Joe Lockhart of the Kerry campaign denies that the Kerry campaign had anything to do with these documents. Another Kerry researcher says they learned about them on television.” (ABC’s “Good Morning America,” 9/10/04) Lockhart Said He Spoke...

    [key paragraphs] But on Saturday, Sept. 4, Lockhart said he got a call from Mapes, a CBS producer who told him she was working on a piece about Bush's National Guard service that would air the following Wednesday. She said she had documents but would not tell Lockhart what was in them, Lockhart added. He said he thought she was calling to get the campaign's response to the story, but instead Mapes gave him Burkett's name and cellphone number. "She said there was someone helpful on the story who had been trying to reach the campaign and really wanted to...

    NASHVILLE, Tenn. — John Kerry was politely received by the American Legion yesterday, delivering a speech focused on veteran pocketbook issues and President Bush's handling of the war in Iraq without addressing the attacks leveled against him last month by fellow veterans.     "I'm proud to be here, and I'm proud to be a Legionnaire," he said after saluting the several thousand veterans seated in the giant hall. [snip]The audience politely responded to most of Mr. Kerry's pauses for his applause lines and gave him a standing ovation.     It was the candidate's first appearance before a major national veterans group since...

    First there was Gov. Gray Davis sputtering with outrage that Californians would dare to exercise their state constitutional rights and try to oust him for the horrible job he's done. Now Clintonista press secretary Joe Lockhart and other Dems are abusing the U.S. Constitution to attack President Bush. The sore losermans are gathering petitions in a lame attempt to oust Bush. The U.S. Constitution, unlike the California Consitution, provides no way to recall a president through a ballot initiative. But the Dems have long assaulted the Second Amendment, distorted the First Amendment to claim that government has to be...
