Accuracy in Media said today that the newly released report on how CBS News handled the Bush National Guard story contains a bombshell that further undermines the credibility of CBS News anchorman Dan Rather and his close collaborator and associate, producer Mary Mapes. The report reveals on page 130 that Mapes, one of those fired because of the scandal, had documented information in her possession before the controversial September 8 broadcast that George W. Bush, while in the Texas Air National Guard, "did volunteer for service in Vietnam but was turned down in favor of more experienced pilots." This information...

WASHINGTON - Liberal powerhouse MoveOn has a message for the "professional election losers" who run the Democratic Party: "We bought it, we own it, we're going to take it back." A scathing e-mail from the head of MoveOn's political action committee to the group's supporters on Thursday targets outgoing Democratic National Committee chairman Terry McAuliffe as a tool of corporate donors who alienated both traditional and progressive Democrats. "For years, the party has been led by elite Washington insiders who are closer to corporate lobbyists than they are to the Democratic base," said the e-mail from MoveOn PAC's Eli Pariser....

Head of U.N. Program in Iraq Accused of Improperly Accepting Purchasing Rights. UNITED NATIONS -- Benon Sevan, the official accused of improperly receiving lucrative rights to purchase oil from Saddam Hussein's government while he was running the U.N. oil-for-food program in Iraq, discouraged his staff from probing allegations of corruption and helped block efforts by the U.N. anti-corruption unit to assess where the program was vulnerable to abuse, according to senior U.N. officials. Sevan said that such an assessment would prove too costly and that U.N. member governments bore primary responsibility for policing the program, according to senior U.N. officials...

Top strategists with John Kerry's presidential campaign are blaming his crushing defeat last week on bad advice from Clinton operatives who took over the campaign after Labor Day. "When [James] Carville and [Stan] Greenberg tell reporters that the campaign was missing a defining narrative, they forget that they were the ones insisting we had to keep beating the domestic-issues drum," complained David Thorne on Thursday. Thorne - a brother-in-law from Kerry's first marriage to Julia Thorne - was one of Kerry's closest advisors throughout the campaign. Thorne told political gadfly Arianna Huffington that because of the misguided Carville-Greenberg strategy, "We...

A former secretary of the Navy is urging Sen. John Kerry to open up his personnel files to resolve the question of whether the Democratic presidential nominee received a less-than-honorable discharge from the Navy. William Middendorf, the Navy chief from 1974 to 1977, told WorldNetDaily today that Kerry, who began inactive reserve status in 1972, would have been issued a document three years later either for a reserve reaffiliation or a separation discharge. An "honorable discharge" from 1978 appears on the Kerry campaign's website, but a Navy lawyer who served under Middendorf believes that document is a substitute for one...

John Kerry's stepson Chris Heinz complained at a recent campaign stop that Jews have too much influence on the U.S. presidential election. "One of the things I've noticed is the Israel lobby," the ketchup heir said, in quotes picked up Sunday by the New York Post. Story Continues Below Heinz complained that Israel was being treated "as the 51st state, sort of a swing state." In more overheated rhetoric first reported by Philadelphia magazine, Heinz called Bush supporters "our enemies" and said that if he ran his stepfather's campaign, the attacks on President Bush would get even uglier. "We didn't...

By Chuck Canterbury National President - Fraternal Order of Police I am often asked by those in the media or outside the membership of our organization why the Fraternal Order of Police chose to endorse the reelection of President George W. Bush over Senator Kerry--the first ever unanimous endorsement of a presidential candidate in the F.O.P.’s nearly ninety year history. Quite simply, it is because under this President promises made are promises kept. It is one thing to claim that you support law enforcement. It’s quite another to actually go out there, roll up your sleeves and work on their...

Mystery Surrounds Kerry's Navy Discharge BY THOMAS LIPSCOMB - Special to the Sun October 13, 2004 An official Navy document on Senator Kerry's campaign Web site listed as Mr. Kerry's "Honorable Discharge from the Reserves" opens a door on a well kept secret about his military service. The document is a form cover letter in the name of the Carter administration's secretary of the Navy, W. Graham Claytor. It describes Mr. Kerry's discharge as being subsequent to the review of "a board of officers." This in it self is unusual. There is nothing about an ordinary honorable discharge action in...

Wednesday night’s third and final presidential debate on the campus of Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona was the site of one of the most despicable things I’ve seen in all the years I’ve observed politics. But given who was involved and the subsequent fallout, I’m not all that surprised. Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry responded to a question asked by debate moderator Bob Schieffer of CBS news. Mr. Schieffer asked whether or not homosexuality was choice in the context of the same-sex marriage issue. Kerry replied: "We're all God's children, Bob, and I think if you were to talk...

...This spring, film producers... sent 150 digital video cameras to Iraq and invited Iraqis to tape whatever they wanted -- and then pass the cameras onto someone else. The three had no idea how the victims of first Saddam Hussein and then of the chaos that accompanied his fall would react. By the end of last month, the producers had received some 450 hours of footage, taped all over the country with some 2,000 Iraqis. The scenes in their completed film, "Voices of Iraq" (www.voicesofiraq.com), come as a shock.... But mostly, overwhelmingly, there are signs of life and optimism. Iraqis...

TOLEDO, Ohio -- In a victory for the Democrats, a federal judge ruled Thursday that Ohio voters who show up at the wrong polling place on Election Day can still cast ballots as long as they are in the county where they are registered. U.S. District Judge James Carr blocked a directive from Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell, a Republican, who recently announced that poll workers must send voters to their correct precinct. The judge said that voters who show up at the wrong polling place after moving without notifying the elections board, and those whose names cannot...

CRAWFORD — Photos of President Bush hugging diners and mugging for the camera adorn the walls of the Crawford Coffee Station, a popular cafe in this small Central Texas town Bush calls home. But the rack that once held the Lone Star Iconoclast — Crawford's weekly newspaper — now is empty, thanks to a blistering indictment in Tuesday's paper of Bush's presidential record and a call to elect Democrat John Kerry in NThe firestorm began Tuesday morning, when readers opened up the newspaper to Page 2 and found an entire half-page criticizing the president for a variety of failings, and...

Free Advice for Karl Rove: Kerry's Inherent Debating LimitationBy Jonathan SteinAs I understand it, Karl Rove and other GOP operatives scour the conservative websites for useful information -- information they can employ in the campaign. So, I'm writing this with the hope that Mr. Rove, or one of his ilk, will read it and take it to heart. As an advance warning to editors who read this, I plan to submit this "editorial" to multiple sources, but I believe, in this case, it is worth suspending the usual "exclusive material" rule. If this gets into the right hands, it could...

Inside the Swift Boat Veterans Latest Move By: krempasky · Section: Election 2004 Politics is usually an ugly business but every now and then you are privileged to meet some truly exceptional American heroes. Last Saturday Red State was privileged to be the only blog allowed to cover the filming of the last – and most devastating of the Swift Boat ads. (In fact, there was only one other media outlet present) We spent the better part of an hour in an intense conversation with a genuine hero named Dr. Louis Letson. You can not spend more than five minutes...

It hasn't escaped the notice of many that in the past two weeks, the MSM has dropped five bombs on Kerry and fired upon him several other times. The latest two bombs are the NY Fishwrap's long interview with Kerry, in which he is quoted as labeling terrorism a "nuisance," and the just-posted copy of one of Kerry's off-shore, tax-avoiding, anti-American investments. Sniper fire continues, with one journal revealing that even MA voters give Kerry only half the support they gave Al Gore, "the first android candidate for president," to quote one writer. Call me cynical, but do we detect...

Dear God, I can't believe it !! Christoher Reeve's body is hardly cold and Paul Begala, the left-wing, radical co-host of CNN's Crossfire,is dancing on his casket already. One can't say he's "dancing on his grave" because he isn't even in the ground yet. During his despicable monologue today he said that "Christopher Reeve was mentioned in Friday night's debate by HIS FRIEND, John Kerry." He then went on to say that Christopher Reeve had committed his life to lobbying for stem cell research in hopes of finding a cure for his paralysis. He did not fail to mention that...
