Powerlineblog.org: We Just Got A Tip (Breaking Story on Kerry?)

Powerline ^ | 10/23/04

[freespirited]

We just got a tip......that a major newspaper will break a front-page story Monday morning that could create a serious problem for the Kerry campaign. We don't yet have any details, but it relates to a foreign policy issue, and it will call into question--amazingly enough--John Kerry's truthfulness.

We'll watch for the story Sunday night and post it as soon as it becomes available.

From Drudge:
NYT DEVELOPING EXCLUSIVE FRONT PAGE STORY ON TERRORISTS AND EXPLOSIVES. EDITOR HAS SET LEAD POSITION FOR STORY, NEWSROOM SOURCES TELL DRUDGE... DEVELOPING...

[bcoffey]

Joel Mowbray usually breaks stories from the State Dept. (like the "Visa Express" scandal).

From Redstate.org More on the John Kerry Story

I'm pleased to introduce Red State readers to our newest and most welcome contributor, Joel Mowbray. Joel is the author of the Washington Times piece we referred to on Saturday - which will run page 1, above-the-fold tomorrow.. Joel is a long-time columnist, investigative journalist, and author of Dangerous Diplomacy: How The State Department Threatens American Security . He's a dogged reporter -- see, for example, his epic series of confrontations with the State Department's Richard Boucher, one of which led to his being "detained" -- and he's the first person that Red State approached once it became clear that there might be a story here.

He'll be blogging here at Red State to cover developments in the story and respond to any critiques and comments raised. We're lucky to have him, and happy to be able to provide a place for him to cover the story in a way that doesn't depend on print deadlines or studio time.

NY Times story is a Bush bash coordinated with Kerry campaign.

[Pinetop]

Okay--miscommunication. Well, if it's the NYT, it's not going to be skerry.

[4everontheRight]

That one escapes me...I had relatives in Gonzales, etc....my sister works over in NO and lives in MS but the rest of my family is in MS (Oxford and the coast)
Where is Leesville?

[joevberry333]

Joel Mowbray, the guy that wrote the article is conservative...So it will be in Bush's favor and the article will expose the fact that weapons have been found in Iraq...That desroys the Dem's lies that there have been no WMD.....

[PatriotGirl827]

Oh wow - that would be awesome....

[traderrob6]

WMDs?

[joevberry333]

Yes WMD's have been found. Actually some were found at the beginning of the war. Funny how the Liberal Media failed to mention this....

Section9, DemLosers


It sure sounds plausible that the Israelis may try to scuttle Kerry with knowledge of inside info.


The "first" casualty of a Kerry election win would be the substantial US-Israeli collaboration on effective Ballistic Missile defenses (both at the tactical and strategic levsls).


And, sadly enough, although I'm personally not Jewish, the scenarios discussed by Krauthammer and Section9 would normally scare the daylights out of all those South Flaridah Miami Jews (imported from New Yawk), who'll vote for Kerry-Edwards even as the Isamofascists are designing the 2010-series of gas chambers for the Jewish settlers in Tel Aviv and Bethlehem ...

Kerry is gay and Teresa is a man!

[theyreallthesame]

Gee, that was a creative thought and post. Why not deal with something substantive and meaningful? You know, things that are accurate and proveable.

Kerry is what he is. In my opinion, the guy is nothing shy of a provider of comfort to the enemy, both past and present. I belive that can be proven if exposed to the light of day.

When you take to silly attacks such as this, you lose credibilty in a heartbeat and become dismissed based upon your less than credible attacks on a baseless allegation. Please rethink your approach.

I have been expecting to see the DNC show up on the Oil Voucher list.

Philosophical question for the forum: when is a tip not a tip?

When in doubt...ask a Rabbi!

Joel Mowbray, the guy that wrote the article is conservative. So it will be in Bush's favor and the article will expose the fact that weapons have been found in Iraq...That desroys the Dem's lies that there have been no WMD.....

According to Drudge, the Mowbray story has nothing to do with WMD's but that Kerry did not meet with the UN Panel as he claimed. I thought you said you knew what it was about?
