Daily Kos' Latest Defense Strategy for the 9/11 Cartoon Scandal: It Never Happened
Radarsite ^ | Sept 14, 2008 | Roger W. Gardner

Posted on 09/15/2008 10:21:21 AM PDT by Roger W. Gardner

A note From Radarsite: "...the radar guy faked you out, dude..." There is nothing I would like more than to drop this whole miserable episode with Daily Kos and its rabid supporters, but they just won't let me. The DK has now deleted this post and all references to it from their site. Thus, it never happened. It was a made-up story, a Republican ploy, another Republican ploy. The Daily Kos never did such a thing. All of those outraged articles that flooded the Internet were only condemning a chimera. Those (literally) thousands of readers who descended on Radarsite to voice their disgust about that horrific piece were all suffering from some form of mass hysteria. And again, those (literally) thousands of sincere Democrats who came onto Radarsite specifically to unequivocally distance themselves from this obscenity were merely victims of a clever Republican ruse. There was never any such cartoon, and there was never any such posting. As difficult as it may be, I'll not succumb to the temptation to use that Orwellian quote about 'he who controls the past...' But I will say this. There are no limits to the extremes of our adversaries, no moral boundaries, no traces of decency, and finally, no sense of shame. None at all.

Here, then, once again our some sample comments lifted from the comments thread at the History Channel Boards. This is the mentality of the enemy.- rg

that "quote" is NOT ON THEIR WEBSITE Sep 14, 2008 8:57 PM i just looked at the whole day-full of posts. kos and crew were busy.... but the little poster and quote you refer to were not on his website.... you have been tricked..... the radar guy faked you out, dude.... check it out for yourself: google the quote: "All this 9/11 worship is ghoulish and downright silly. Some Brit on b3ta.com is even making fun of our pompous charade." and all you get is conservative reactionary sites lambasting Kos for something he didn't write....

And:

the fact that those conservatives would MAKE UP STORIES and attribute them to Kos, and then rag on him for days for stuff he didn't write.. that is really too much!!

perhaps somebody who still thinks that this actually appeared on daily kos could show us where it is/was???

yeah, i thought not...

Someone should have screen captured it. This way Kos can delete it into the memory hole all they want and we’ll still have evidence.

With IMHO and IANL caveats, this is prima facie evidence that capturing full copies of items published in the media is legitimate fair use by a watchdog / media monitoring organization, a role at which FreeRepublic excels. The metaphor is the copy of the printed newspaper kept in a library that serves as proof that something was actually published.

1) There HAS to be some archiving of this somewhere, or it must still be in SOMEONE’S cache.

2) George Orwell, a somewhat reformed socialist, told us that this is the way Communists operate, putting anything that doesn’t fit the agenda or gets it in trouble into the memory hole.

3) Ergo, this is a Communist organization.

Dang. I saw it on the DKos site and it never occurred to me to take a screen cap of it.

Who wins what round? You certainly don’t mean to imply that those fools achieved anything by lying about it do you?

Thanks. I wish I had thought of it too. But I don’t think we really have to convince people that it was really there. We have thousands of witnesses and they have a couple of pathetic fools on a hopeless mission of denial. I will not lower myself to be drawn into a debate with them over its existence.

I have just begun reading 1984 again...

I believe memory hole is a quite accurate way of describing this sort of behavior...btw, did you hear that they raised the chocolate ration to 20g per day after our stunning victory over Eurasia on the Malabar front?

Of course they did.

They removed the evidence of OUR version of the truth, and THEIR version is now the truth in the eyes of The Sheep, who believe anything and everything they’re told.

And the Sheep read the Truth, and it was GOOD...
