They came from the site, Democrats.com.
They are still there.

Rather is a poster child for the serious psychological issues that infect “true believers” of leftism. There is a very strong delusional quality to his behavior along with a “any means justifies the ends” mentality.
Something I ponder now and then goes like this:
Let’s say The Dan’s documents got saturation coverage in all media. It is all anyone wanted to talk about. John Francois won the election by a narrow margin. In Feb 2005, The Dan’s fraud is exposed. Now there is a movie.
The fossil Rather would have to hire a platoon of bodyguards, but the election results would have to stand.
Scary stuff. It could have happened and I am confident a slicker rat attempt will be made against a future strong GOP candidate.
The old media deserve every bit and more of the derision we toss at them.
I think CBS' brass tried mightily to make sure we didnt' start going after each and every one of them until there were no more CBS brass!
Rather's just another bitter punk nursing a grievance about getting caught telling lies.
He’s blaming the messenger that caught him in a deliberate lie. He still proclaims “fake but accurate” and stands by his story.
Don’t worry about him. The Dem congress will bail him out. They might even conduct an investigation based on his results to boot.
What a dopey contention.
CBS was responding to criticism of the story. Naturally, since the story was about a Republican, the criticism was coming from Republicans.
If there was criticism of a negative story about Greenpeace, one would expect that the most vocal criticism would be from Greenpeace. If the story featured obviously forged documents slamming Greenpeace, CBS would likely fire people, in part because of the criticism from Greenpeace that forced them to investigate in the first place.
If Greenpeace were pressuring CBS they would fire people INSTANTLY. That’s because they wouldn’t care to have Greenpeace bomb their headquarters.
