2. Colmes...........
is irritating. Most people on DU could do better than Colmes.

He lets Hannity walk all over him and anyone from the left.

4. so fill me in
does Colmes have his own show? I don't have cable, and even if i did, wouldn't watch Fox, Hannity/xxx.

the WillPitt thread has been revealed a few threads up...but i suspect you saw/heard as much on Colmes.

6. The lawyer bit is true
Edited on Tue Aug-24-04 08:48 PM by RatTerrier
Ironically, Drudge has a link to this:

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=694&u=/ap/20040824/ap_on_el_pr/veterans_group_bush_2&printer=1

WASHINGTON - A lawyer for President Bush (news - web sites)'s re-election campaign disclosed Tuesday that he has been providing legal advice for a veterans group that is challenging Democratic Sen. John Kerry's account of his Vietnam War service.

Benjamin Ginsberg's acknowledgment marks the second time in days that an individual associated with the Bush-Cheney campaign has been connected to the group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, which Kerry accuses of being a front for the Republican incumbent's re-election effort.

The Bush campaign and the veterans' group say there is no coordination.

The group "came to me and said, 'We have a point of view we want to get into the First Amendment debate right now. There's a new law. It's very complicated. We want to comply with the law, will you keep us in the bounds of the law?'" Ginsberg said in an interview with The Associated Press. "I said yes, absolutely, as I would do for anyone."


As for the big news story hype, Will Pitt has it on this page. Something about O'Neill himself lying about being in Cambodia.

7. right, and that was what i was asking for
were the 2 details/stories part of the whole? Does the O'Neil lie give more reason for them to need a R-lawyer defense...

i assumed (yeh i know) there was a tie b/twn them.
