INDC Journal ^ | 11/9/05 | Bill Ardolino

[Westerby]

Is it true that she's the younger sister of the Sheehan woman?

[Pajamajan]

"in unison to destroy the Bush-Guard story"

Um Mary..... What part of "The documents were fake", do you not understand?

[sayfer bullets]

I knew I recognized her...

[bray]

The Dinosaur roared with disdain at the Mammel as she sank below the surface of the tarpit....

Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters

[Pajamajan]

"like a school of sharks sweeping toward an unaware and unarmed victim.

Oh, someone please cue the theme music from "Jaws".

As for being "unaware" and "unarmed"- that's her own fault. It's the very essence of liberalism to be unaware and unarmed,

[MitchellC]

Mary could easily silence all her critics by doing one simple thing.

And that is, produce the Magic Copy Machine that magically makes regular-sized letters from a 70's typewriter into superscript size, such as the kind that appears on Microsoft Word.

[doug from upland]

Electroshock therapy? Do you think that would help?

MIDI - IT MUST HAVE BEEN LOVE - 2nd version

I hate Buckhead and the FReepers...they had cost me a great job
They made me look foolish...a left wing whackjob...they had piled on like a mob...like a mob

I got blamed...they threw me out...out the door

I must have been sane but that's over now
I must have been sane but my mind's lost somehow
I must have been sane but that's over now
I'll get you, JimRob...I am making that vow

That "th" thing was a problem...but denial I'll sustain
You still haven't proved that...the docs were phony...I'll continue that refrain

So I got blamed...they threw me out...right out the door

I must have been sane but that's over now
Must have been sane but my mind's lost somehow
I must have been sane but that's over now
I'll get Jim Robinson...I'll get Jim Robinson

(musical break)

I must have been sane but that's over now
I must have been sane but my mind's lost somehow
I must have been sane but that's over now
I will get you, Jim Robinson...I'm making that vow

I hate all your Freeper-thons...and your "bump to the top"
What is up with that little pinging thing...that is something that's got to stop
I must have been sane but that's over now
So I must sell a book...I've got to sell my book...on the talk shows
They're not forgeries
They're not forgeries
There's no forger

[The Shrew]

"The great Howlin swam silently below the ocean depths, propelled by short swift strokes of her huge crescent tail!"

Apologies to Peter Benchley and to Howlin ;-)

"Mark my words if the Democrats ever come back to power they will put severe restrictions on speech and the internet..."

Isn't that exactly what the McCain-Feingold Act - officially the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (BCRA) is already attempting to do?

Quoting The Center for Democracy and Technology:

It was originally not meant to change the treatment of the Internet under the campaign finance laws, the Federal Election Commission initially ruled that Internet activity was almost entirely exempt from BCRA. However, a court overturned that rule, and in 2005 the FEC began to take a new look at the Internet, with the possibility of adopting regulations limiting online political advocacy.

Let me tell you what troubles me about Mapes that most people I do not believe picked up on in her interview with O'Reilly. If I did not misunderstand her she said the way they reported this was SOP for the press and that is frightening if true. (That is paraphrasing her of course).

[Smedley]

The Freepers swarmed CBS not because it was right or fair

The fact that it WAS right and it WAS fair is not relevant. The fact that Freepers did expose in hours the obviously fake documents doesn't seem to matter, and the fact that cBS's own experts never gave the verification cBS originally claimed is not relevant. Mapes might take a clue that MS Word wasn't around in 1970, but nooooo!

[Interesting Times]

Former producer Mapes can't get used to the fact that the old media can no longer lie with impunity.

It's wrong, unfair, and just makes her want to whine and sulk.

[FourtySeven]

How Mary and Dan continue on with anything but apology? They cry, they whine, they blame others, the attempt to engage in revisions... incredible.

It is incredible. It's amazing what people will do (or say) once they convince themselves of something. Tell a lie often enough, even to yourself, and people will believe it as truth.

[LYSandra]

I've seen her on OReilly and something else and she is a real b----! She has that look-arrogance whatever and can't argue her point at all! An idiot!

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

You know, there is no disagreement among modern cartographers that the world is not flat. Astronomers seem to be in alsolute lockstep in belief that the Sun does not rotate about the Earth, despite the almost daily evidence of our very eyes. Doctors close ranks in dismissing the theory that disease is caused by an imbalance in the bodily humors.

Everywhere, there exist these swarming conspiracies. Whence cometh the next Mary Mapes to enlighten all of us, we poor intellectual mites, when compared to her Ruthian intellect?
