MCAULIFFE: WILL GOP ANSWER IF THEY KNOW WHETHER STONE, OTHERS HAD INVOLVEMENT WITH CBS DOCUMENTS?
Washington, D.C. - In response to false Republican accusations regarding the CBS documents, Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe issued this statement:
“In today’s New York Post, Roger Stone, who became associated with political ‘dirty tricks’ while working for Nixon, refused to deny that he was the source the CBS documents.
“Will Ed Gillespie or the White House admit today what they know about Mr. Stone’s relationship with these forged documents? Will they unequivocally rule out Mr. Stone’s involvement? Or for that matter, others with a known history of dirty tricks, such as Karl Rove or Ralph Reed?”

I called Kinkos and Stone has an account with them. I also heard that he likes to attend livestock shows in Houston.
Isn't it odd. Someone feeds forged docs to a news outfit. And what do you hear. Outrage, ire, send in the lawyers, find out who hoodwinked us.
Nope, you hear sandbags being piled outside the door.
The hounds aren't barking and that tells you all you need to know about who is behind the story.
-- woof woof --- Dan is that you?
This is a joke right?
No, McAuliffe isn't stupid, but he thinks the American public is. I'm betting he's wrong, and that the election will prove it.
A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.
She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."
"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."
The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat."
"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"
"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met but, somehow, now it's my fault."
Doesn't Kerry, Rather, AlGore, Clinton (take your pick,) The DNC, have all of these?
Without the press being enablers, they would have to grow up.
Now why would Burkett take them if they were a set up from a Republican activist, then pass them off to Lockhart, then the DNC, and then to CBS? This is the dumbest spin I've ever heard. Even an idiot over at DUmmies should be able to see through this one!
No problem. "Nope. No involvement."
Happy now?
Your desciption of blind arrogance made me think of Haman in the book of Esther.
Man, I can't WAIT to hear Zell Miller's take on this!!

NEW YORK, Aug. 27, 2004
"I think the president's greatest challenge is getting beyond the hard-core right and the religious right and figuring out how to get back many of the suburban moderates who voted for compassionate conservatism — people who are fiscally conservative but socially moderate," Stone said.
Moderation In Everything (Visible)
But since the platform is unlikely to reach out to voters at the center, the action at the convention podium must do so. In other words, says Stone, "the less we see of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell and their colleagues the better."
Bush Is Big
And indeed, the premier event of the convention is Mr. Bush's Thursday night address. Experts agree his speech is the week's crucial event. They disagree on the task he faces.
"I just think the president has to be himself," said Stone. "One of the reasons that voters like him, and one of the reasons that he connects with voters in the way John Kerry never connects with voters, is he is a plainspoken, regular guy."
Stone agrees that Sept. 11 is tricky territory.
"I think it is very risky but I have every confidence that the president will not do anything tasteless," he said. "There is a historical record: He was president of the United States when this happened; he did take decisive action."
But "at the juncture where you appear to be profiting from it, it is counterproductive."

It's the Clinton technique. Deny, deny, deny, and point the finger of blame to someone else.
Now .. with that said .. is there any doubt in anyone's mind who running this little scam ..??
Why, thank you! :o)
What did the White House do? Sent them back without comment.
As if to say --. Do as you will, and...
...
Let the chips fall where they may.
And now there are large steaming piles of chips everywhere :-)
[Anti-DNC, Anti-Kerry Sarcasm torpedo ARMED. FIRE!]
Someone should issue a press release calling on John Kerry
to renounce the beheadings of civilians in Iraq
Huh?
Well, John Kerry's 1971 Winter Soldier testimony:
They raped, cut off heads, ...
And we know Kerry has already confessed to committing atrocities!
