Thanks!! Burkett served as one of Michael Moore's advisors for Fahrenheit 911! YIKES!!

I just have a feeling that Mary Mapes knew Nick Berg and knows Michael Moore and that's where she got the Abu Grahib story and pictures!!

Thanks for replying! That's probably why I only heard such a radio caller only once and haven't read anything like it on FR.

So when you print out something 30 years old, does it take on the print type of the equipment you're using at present time, or retain the original setup? Just wondering, as I'm not well-versed at all in hi-tech matters!!

The most incriminating fact is that there was no one interviewed, who would have refuted those memos and the very accusations behind them. Can anyone really believe that, if Danny Boy had done a story on Juanita Broaddrick, he would have excluded anyone who would have refuted the charges? It is amazing to me how bloggers, so sneeringly looked down upon by the MSM, can present us with the entire story better than a decades old network and its centuries old prima donna "newscaster."

Dan Blather and everyone associated with that biased hit piece should be fired.

Truth is we have more "experts" at our disposal. We don't need to be professional journalists. We are scientists, engineers, IT professionals, teachers, lawyers, etc. Our talent pool dwarfs theirs.

Bill Burkett tells everyone that he found these incriminating records in the trash can.

Bill Burkett is a lying sonofagun looney bird. Read any Houston Chronicle article and you get the sense he's completely insane, yet, read any CNN or WaPo article and you'd get the sense he's just a good ol' boy.

Alluding to advertisements by a veterans group that deprecates Mr. Kerry's Vietnam service, Mr. Burkett continued...

Isn't that a 'little' slanted???

The NYSlimes couldn't even bring themselves to call the SwiftVets by their name. How pathetic.

Thanks! I am always looking for some more knowledge of the language I use daily, and poorly. I wasn't trying to be a smartass, well, not much any way. I always like giving my brother/sisters in arms of the other services some good natured ribbing. Thanks again for the definition and where the phrase came from.

Keep in mind that Wilson never saw the forged Niger documents.

He didn't write a report on his trip.

Keep up the good work.

Maybe, when ol' Max was in Texas, he was doing more than "delivering" a letter to W's ranch.

Verrrry interesting....

[piasa]

That's very true. thanks
