I was kidding,but if it was him, I hope he's lurking on F.R and laughing his a$$ off.

"I didn't realize there were enough hours in the day for Rove to do all of the things he is being accused of."Just like there isn't enough money in the world for all the "right-wing" schemes Richard Mellon Scaiffe is accused of supporting.

Yep, mark down the date: 9-9-2004.
That was the day the New Media meteor slammed into the dumbfounded Old Media dinosaur.

I probably didn't contribute a thing to the uncovering of this scandal, but I sure am proud to have been, if nothing else, part of the FR cheering section. We Freepers really are a significant part of 2004 election history. Pretty remarkable, really.

(Hey Dems! Just where are those memoes of mass destruction!?)
To: Travis McGee
Well, well, well. The DNC gets this stuff from some mysterious retired military officer, ships it to the Kerry staff, who turn it around and place it in the hands of CBS, who were - yeah, right - "suspicious" but not enough so to avoid trashing what little reputation they had left in order to smear Bush with a questionable accusation.
Why do you suppose the DNC would do that? Because they are as credulous as the Kerry-ites? Or because they knew better from the beginning? And if they did know better, why would they let the Kerry people twist in the breeze like this? Doesn't the DNC (snicker!) want Kerry to win?
To: Brad Cloven
"The Kerry campaign issued suspected forgeries with no more providence than a staffer's say so? "
You wondered what documents that Sandy Berger had stuffed in his shorts. Been carrying them since 1972. No wonder they reeked.

Like watching the Watergate scandal unfold in a 24 hour timeframe.
Good analogy. I lived in Takoma Park, MD, back from 1973 - 1976, and that took months, if not more than a year to break.
Remember listening on the radio to the House committee voting on the articles of impeachment.

I can't believe the AS swallows this malarkey about CBS producers being "duped" by anybody. Nobody is that dumb. Rather and CBS went right ahead with a story they knew to be a lie. Either that or they don't know how to research a story and are extremely low IQ, borderline moron. I don't buy it.

The CBS producer said that some alarms bells went off last week when the signatures and initials of Killian on the documents in hand did not match up with other documents available on the public record, but producers chose to move ahead with the story. When irrational animosity takes root in a business where the players are pretty much the bottom of the gene pool, those emotions, justified or not trigger pretty stupid acts.
Pathology worth studying.

Maybe we should ask "Buckhead"(he seem to be the first one to point out the docs. "problems" here) if he really is Karl Rove
This is starting to play out like a Road Runner cartoon where Wild E. Coyote(Kerry)has all theses genius plans and ideas that ALWAYS blow up in his face and the Road Runner (Bush) just speeding away

"Karl Rove is Dan Rather's friend - he made sure Dan set this up to discredit Kerry. This is the new DU spin"
SUUURE , let the idiots believe that!
We were told by the Dims that they were going to conduct a smear campaign soon.
Well they tried and they failed...whew oh boy did they fail.
LOL
To: Travis McGee
How many days until Kerry is forced to hold a press conference, where he annuonces the "resignation" of an "overzealous junior staffer who instigated a hoax, which got out of hand."
No, Kerry'll say he's behind the staffer
1,000 per cent, (Search on the Broder article I linked.)

PREDICTION! [Jonah Goldberg]
If they turn out to be forgeries, expect the Salonish types to very quickly float the idea that Karl Rove orchestrated the whole thing to make the anti-Bush side look desperate.
Posted at 03:33 PMChris Lahane(sp?) of the Gore/Kerry teams essentially just said this not moments ago on Nightline - "You know, Tom, it's not inconceivable that the Bush campaign released [these forgeries] to make the Kerry campaign look bad."
Thanks to the internet, we can predict and timestamp their responses hours before they commit them.
In the military we call that GETTING INSIDE THEIR DECISION CYCLE.
Hoohah!

It will be very bad for Kerry if they trace this back to his campaign and I bet CBS is going to be really angry over this. I can see them outting whoever gave them the documents, or if they don't, they will see that it leaks out. I disagree. If CBS admits it came from the Rats, then this will hurt their credibility even more.
