Do the right thing. Send Blitzer an e-mail.

[trof]

I'm as quick as anyone else here to crawl his ass when he lets his (or maybe his employer's) bias show.

He just presented the most comprehensive account of Bush*s service record that I have seen on television.

He deserves as "atta-boy". We need to use the carrot as well as the stick.
I think his e-mail is [e-mail]
This s from memory, so if you have a better addy please post it.

1. Details?

3. The whole thing was on.

The missing months/years, the missed physical which grounded him. The Alabama bailout, all of it.

2. I Just Sent Blitzer the following E-Mail

Triple amputee and Vietnam hero Max Cleland sat in his wheelchair in the broiling hot Texas sun waiting for George W. Bush to do this right thing. In his hand was a letter signed by 9 US Senators, all war heroes, entreating the President to specifically ask the swift (sieve) boat vets to cease their campaign of lies and character assassination.

This was no “stunt,” but an valid appeal against an unprecedented campaign of political poison and smoke designed to distract the American people from the real issues. George W. Bush hid, as he always has, whether from military duty in Vietnam or from discussing his record of a dismal economy, environmental desecration, social unrest, and of course IraqNam.

A transcript of Kerry’s 1971 testimony proves that the attack ads are totally misleading: Kerry relates only hearsay recollections; he blames the nature of war and the country and not the soldiers for any atrocities; he decries search and destroy tactics and free fire zones; and he opposes continuation of an unwinnable and morally questionable war...Conclusions later adopted by a majority of Americans.

If there had been more people with John Kerry’s insight and courage, there would be fewer names on the Vietnam Wall. And if attempting to staunch the needless hemorrhage of American blood is “treason,” then cowardice and hypocrisy are virtues and genocide is charity.

Tragically, many Vietnam veterans were treated despicably after returning from Vietnam. Those shameful events rather than John Kerry are the likely cause of their pain. America and not John Kerry owes them an apology. In view of President Bush’s record on veteran’s affairs, any veteran supporting anyone other than John Kerry is sustaining a "self-inflicted wound."

4. I was hoping for something a bit more complimentary.

Like thanks for finally telling the true story.

[trof]

5. Come on people. Do it.

[newsguyatl]

6. unfortunately, i think du'ers only care

when the media's NOT on our side.

when they do a good thing, like the piece on blitzer's show today, there's silence.

[tuvor]

7. Then you missed the thread(s) about

Chris Matthew's interview with that lying swiftie bastard last week.

[ThatPoetGuy]

8. Letter sent, EOM

[faithnotgreed]

9. my first email to wolf in awhile - it was balanced and complimentary

[John_H]

10. Here's mine

Wolf:

Geez, Wolf, there must be something to that spy-at-the-Pentagon story if you've resorted to reporting Bush's military record instead.

Best,
John

The notion of sending Wolf Blitzer a friendly email for doing his job once out of a thousand shows is utterly ridiculous.

Also, before anyone hauls out the anti-semitism card, please remember that many have argued that ol' Wolf was a propagandist for Mosaad before he became a propagandist for Chimp.

11. CNN Will Have To Do More Than That To Get Me Back

[Jane Austin]

12. Have you guys seen that studio camera clip from

the Blitzer interview with Bob Dole where he was so snarky about Kerry?

While the Kerry ad is running with McCain saying Bush should be ashamed, the studio camera was recording Dol saying "He's right, too."

Some CNN insider made a digital record out of it and busted Dole!

I call that person a patriot.

[David Zephyr]

13. Kick.

Please weigh in with this asshole and let him know that the public now sees through him and that any pretense by him to be impartial anymore is just that: pretense.

He's solidly behind Bush now.
