The left can't stand to be challenged. The clearest sign of a fascist ideology is the drive to crush any and all opposition.

I wanted to read it, so I could have a laugh, but your link appears to be a dead duck.

But unlike CBS and its tarred former anchor, Dan Rather, who eventually admitted their mistakes in the Memogate affair

IIRC CBS & Dan Rather didn't really admit to much.

I cannot help but note how the left today uses the word "right-wing" in much the same way the bigots of old used the N-word.

Soooo... lemme get this straight: Bloggers cannot with integrity investigate any story whatsoever, until they can be absolutely certain that their investigation will reveal what they suspect it might reveal?

Can they cite any well-known site (crackpots and fringe-elements excluded, IOW) where a certain conclusion that the memo was a fake was accepted without challenge?

"Citizen journalists"? Try partisan hacks

And hey, who would know a partisan hack better than a partisan hack? I guess they don't like the competition.

Citizen journalists don't try to pretend that they're unbiased. We/they are not.

MSM tries to pretend it is reporting unbiased information, based only on pure unadulterated fact.

But .. unlike the democrat staffers who wrote the judiciary memos and the senate intel memos about how to damage a sitting President during an election year - is supposedly still working for the dems.

However, when Martinez found out it was HIS STAFFER who wrote the Terri memo - THE GUY RESIGNED.

NOW .. DEMOCRATS - WHO's CORRUPT HERE!! It looks like the republicans have been a WHOLE LOT MORE RESPONSIBLE than the democrats when it comes to staff memos.

Unlike Dan Rather and others, we partisan hacks don't have access to an entire news research department.

Strange.

The bloggers were again correct, and the MSM wrong here.

The MSM claimed that this memo was the work of the Republican Senate leadership. The memo was in fact not the work of the Republican Senate leadership.

True enough, many bloggers surmised, incorrectly, it was the work of a Democrat, but the point remains they caught the MSM in another lie...

This is just a huge distraction from the real issue of whether pulling the feeding tube was the right thing to do. But then of course, that is the intention...
