I ju;st heard that CBS has been interviewing the 86 yr old secretary all afternoon.

You mean the stupid, Bush-hating bat who said, basically, "I hate George Bush, and while I didn't type those memos, if I had typed them that is exactly what they would have said." That secretary?

Howard Kurtz now on CNN telling Blitzer the statement will be released within the hour. Kurtz says right now, CBS is interviewing Killian's secretary.

They will have to use the spin of 'She said the memos were fake but the contents were true therefor Danny Boy was perfect.

Meanwhile CBS's lawyers are probably bricking in their pants over this mess: Document experts ingored but reported as verfying, Sarbannes-Oxley, and the estate of Col. Killian will all need to be examed to see their potential exposure.

CBS is no doubt getting a "statement" from the befuddled 86-year-old secretary the same way Clinton got a "statement" from his secretary, Betty whatshername: "We were alone, RIGHT, Betty?"

Somewhere Britt Hume is salivating as it gets closer to his airtime.

Heck, the way this is going, Brit Hume's show will have come and
gone and all we have to show for it is another lousy RE-schedule.

"He accumulated 950 points. 19 years worth of points! He probably spent more time in the seat of his fighter/interceptor than Kerry spent TOTAL in Vietnam."

That is such a great point. I wish someone on the pubbie's side who makes the rounds of these shows would pick it up.

oh my god! they're going with the "they're fake but the content is real" defense!

Or, they're "persuading" Knox that the TANG office really did have typewriters on loan from Area 51.

Where's Dan?

Where's the Report?

Did Dan disguise himself as Martha and is he trying to escape scrutiny by hiding out at Danbury Prison?

where's the thread that has all the stuff on the 86 yr. old - I know I read one here and can't find it - we need to hurry up and get all our ducks in a row before the announcement.

Looks like See BS is going to hide behind this little old 86 year old lady.

That must be the tactic. Add a "new angle", parsing and editing her words carefully. Why can't they just leave the old lady alone?

I've often thought that Kerry reminds me of Marvin the dour robot from "The hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy".

Marvin had a personality and a brain the size of a planet. Kerry has neither.

If we're lucky, they're still neogiating Rather's retirement package after he refused to personally take the retraction on the air.

Even if CBS relies on the secretary, it becomes she said/they said since Kilian's wife and son both said not only did Killian like president Bush a lot but he never had a personal file and never would have kept a memo like that. So who is everyone going to believe, the secretary or his family?

Here is the thread you need to counter the talking points regarding the secretary.

We at crushkerry.com predicted this defense yesterday, and prepared these talking points.
