Instead, Dan keeps demanding Bush respond to the ''serious questions'' raised by his fake memos. ''With respect, Mr. President,'' he droned the other day, ''answer the questions.'' The president would love to, but he's doubled up with laughter.

LOL Steyn Bump

The source is probably the DNC, which is why CBS is being so stubborn. They think they can ride this out, although with some damage. If linked to the DNC, the Dems and CBS are both toast!

Forgive me for my lack of originality, but:

If the type face don't fit, you have to acquit.

Dan Rather has become Mark Furhman.

By now just about everybody on the planet also thinks they're junk, except for that dwindling number of misguided people who watch the ''CBS Evening News'' under the misapprehension that it's a news broadcast rather than a new unreality show in which a cocooned anchor, his floundering news division and some feeble executives are trapped on their own isle of delusion and can't figure out a way to vote themselves off it.

cBS is going to need a purple owie for that one.

Steyn is fast becoming one of my favorite writers, I use to consider his end of the issue column in National Review a throw away but its the first place I look now.

I don't know if Steyn's piece is the source of her news, but Monica Crowley on WABC isn't taking calls on rathergate this morning. She said she'll do it tomorrow and that the story is much bigger than what is being reported.

Bump for another Steyn classic.

ROTFLMAO. Priceless.

Thanks, elhombrelibre.

The story isn't whether the documents' contents are true or false, but that they were forged with the intent to deceive the public. Even if Dan has a hundred credible documents negative towards Bush, the fact remains that the ones he presented to us were bogus. His goal was to create negative news about the president to bring him down. Had not Buckhead did what he did, it is likely that Bush wouldn't have had time to shake the charges by election time. What CBS did was try to change the entire political atmosphere with one stroke of the brush! Disgraceful!

The CBS producer hinted that there is "more to come". In a phone call on Thursday morning, Mary Mapes called Seattle's KVI 570 talk radio host John Carlson. Her call was in response to his comments in a Wall Street Journal article about Mrs. Mapes. John previously worked with Mary at KIRO TV News in Seattle in the early '90's.

According to John Carlson during his show on Thursday, Mary Mapes had called Mr. Carlson that morning to discuss the article, talk about the CBS Guard story, and about her father, Dennis Mapes. There were confidential words exchanged and there was public information that John was at liberty to share. And share he did that Mary had heard that her (conservative) father had called into John's radio show to share his sadness for how his liberal daughter went astray. And when John asked her about the fake documents she dodged the question. Then insisted that there is more to the (CBS Guard memo) story that needs to be told and will be told.

The John Carlson Show is available online. Go to:
