CBS-memocrap is bullshit and Rove smear job --- drop the damn subject!
Put two and two togEther folks:
---------------------------------
* You know the way the smarmy SOB Rove works .... enough said.


Sequence of events:
-------------------
* Rove sets up CBS somehow

* IMMEDIATELY a RW blogger says they are fakes

* IMMEDIATELy you have CNN and RW controlled media dissing CBS.

* The next days you have RW radio stations that do ZERO fricking homework quoting exact details of the issue and why it's fake...when nobosy fricking knows.

* Now you have REPUGS calling for an Inquiry...and EVERYONE is now tying it to a "democratic operation" --- which is theeee major bullshit alert.

* THE RW media NEVER alalyzes stuff like this and then keeps up the attack - they have zero investigative journalists.


THIS was all planned... shrubya has shit to run on and it's a SMEAR TO TAKE TIME OFF THE CALENDAR AND FILL THE AIRWAYS.

THIS IS ALL ROVE -- THEY WILL KEEP TRY TO TIE IT TO DEMS AND KEEP UP THE SMEARING.

1. All the Bush team has to do is present the documents
that prove he served all of his time as required. They can't. Someone should call them on it. It's that simple.

3. It's their Waterloo...
Perhaps this time they've really overplayed their hand? Is this hubris at work? Keep hope alive.

7. "Rove sets up CBS somehow"...not what Rather says
Please read this interview of Dan Rather by Hagen of The Observer. Rather admits that a Rove set-up is possible, but not likely, since he has been working on this story for 4 or 5 years!

10. There is NO PROOF that the orginals weren't typed
Edited on Wed Sep-15-04 05:33 PM by rocknation
The "experts" said that there was NO WAY the letters could have been typed in the early 70's because they contained porportional fonts, a typeface that hadn't been invented yet, and special characters. ALL of that was debunked within 24 hours. In addition to that, the baselines of the memos are so inconsistent, it's far more likely that they were caused by subtle shifts in the original paper when struck by a typewriter key than by any subsequent againg, faxing or photcopying. Why in the world should I listen to anything else they have to say?

12. for the 10th time...you know the way media/rove and campaigns work
this is ALL about trying to link the dems into a smear.

The way it grew and was analyzed and reported was a "classic rove hit
"

17. Memos authentic until proven otherwise
7 days and no proof.

Sep 15, 2004
Rather to Bush: "Answer the questions".
"I say that with respect," he added.

18. let's play your hypothesis --- they are authentic -- so what ....it will
go nowhere.

I outlined the immediate coordinated effort...this is not by chance. Repugs in Conmgress don't move this fast....network news don't analyze shit - and now they do? When donkey's fly.

It's a damn hatchet job by Rove to also impune the Dems w/CBS

19. NBC said CBS was..
considered too liberal and trying to manipulate the election.
WHAT??? NBC, CNN, MSNBC, FOX they are the ones trying to manipulate the elections, and succeeding.
If they continue to use their media presense to influence the people and critique what gets investigated and what doesn't(while throwing us a bone to appease every now and again), we will never get control of this country. In essence, they are fixing the elections, by misleading the public. For now and in future elections, I believe it is becoming critically clear that we must get media support behind us and keep it. We need to fully back CBS and let them we support them. I am still boycotting the other channels indefinetly.
