What’s funny is, Rather supported Obama doing the same thing in Yemen, Egypt, Syria and Libya. Rather is a hypocrite
Of course . . . but then, if you did go back to that time, you would just be a Cassandra railing at your friends for not believing then what you did not believe then.Sigh . . .
Me too. I turned 70 recently.
I remember this happening, but I was a lurker then. Long before I signed up.
Thank you, Buckhead!
I was there in that discussion. Not the first thread but the second. It was an amazing time.
I remember when we were discussing the superscript and I said that my word version did not have the same relative height/location of the superscript. One poster said, “print it out and it will”. I did. And it did.
I was just mentioning the Dan Rather fiasco to some liberals on the internet last Saturday as the beginning of the end of the MSM we are seeing today. You can actually imagine how many of our current stories would have played out before that event. For starters, most of them would not be stories. They would have been as buried as JFK’s affair with Marilyn Monroe.
I also recall that it was a poster of FR named Backhoe that first posted that the typewriter used in the fake memo wasn’t available at that time. Free Republic assisted in exposing the truth about Rather!
Buckhead.
That was what I first thought when I read the headline - but this is about GHW Bush, not Dubbya.I was gonna post
Rather's Ruin and the Rise of the Pajamahadeenand
That was Buckhead.
No idea, he hasn't posted in a bit over 3 years.
Perhaps he'll check in here?
Buckhead's last post here was on October 16, 2015. Not sure what happened.

Strangely enough, that was one day after Rush Limbaugh shined the spotlight on him for exposing the whole Dan Rather fake memo. http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3349030/posts.
Maybe JimRob gave him another screen name for his protection.
“Three decades later, journalists are still doing their best to undermine conservatives and Republicans. “
...decades later, journalists are still doing their best to undermine the opposition Deep State candidate to promote their own Deep State candidate.
Three decades later, journalists are still doing their best Dan Rather impersonations................................
BUCKHEAD ALERT ....BUCKHEAD ALERT..
Dan Rather has been instructing budding journalists for a long time.

I’d much “rather” be reading that the POS had just died. But at 86, I doubt I’ll be waiting a lot longer. What would really make my day would be to read that Dianne Fineswine had “departed” too.
An Oldie, but a Goodie.
No Pelosi?
I hope he is still here, we all owe him such a debt of gratitude. I knew what passed for reporting was biased, but that opened my eyes to the fact reporters were willing to outright lie and create false documents to support their lies.
Rather should have been charged with tampering with government documents or something- what he did had to be illegal.
“No Pelosi?”
Naw, she’s only in her late 70’s, so unless her Alzheimers really gets going, she’s likely to keep “entertaining” us with her moronic statements for another decade. Anyway, keeping her as “minority” leader is just another “stone” around the RAT Party’s neck so she’s still “useful!”
