Scums of the earth KKKarl & Chris WALLACE did a hit job on Dan RATHER (movie "Truth")

[UTUSN]

They each did their little individual recaps of their versions of what happened, with KKKarl lacing it all with labeling the KNOWN AWOL Shrub story as being based on "forged documents." They also cited the CBS final report as being gawd's truth. Then WALLACE invoked his sacred father as having confronted RATHER and told him that if his whole crew, producer, and an exec were fired then RATHER should have the decency to resign.

WALLACE capped it all with the single word "revisionism." No, you two creepezoids, Shrub was AWOL, and is a lifelong shameless scum of the earth.

Question to KKKarl: Shall we start your litany of crimes with James HATFIELD?!1

1. They are an insult to scum

2. Thank you for remembering Jim Hatfield, UTUSN.

Karl used him to sheep dip Smirko McCokespoon. Then, he died. Conveniently before 9-11.

The story: Pretzeldent Smirko was attending the G-8 summit at Genoa. Instead of staying on land at a luxury hotel, the commandeer-n-thief chose to sleep aboard a guided missile destroyer. Why? He was warned by Putin that "Osama bin Laden" was planning to attack the conference with hijacked jetliners. Here's the article from July 2001:

Why would Osama bin Laden want to kill Dubya, his former business partner?

By James Hatfield

Editor's note: In light of last week's horrific events and the Bush administration's reaction to them, we are reprising the following from the last column Jim Hatfield wrote for Online Journal prior to his tragic death on July 18:

July 3, 2001—There may be fireworks in Genoa, Italy, this month, too.

A plot by Saudi master terrorist, Osama bin Laden, to assassinate Dubya during the July 20 economic summit of world leaders, was uncovered after dozens of suspected Islamic militants linked to bin Laden's international terror network were arrested in Frankfurt, Germany, and Milan, Italy, in April.

German intelligence services have stated that bin Laden is covertly financing neo-Nazi skinhead groups throughout Europe to launch another terrorist attack at a high-profile American target—his first since the bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen last October.

According to counter-terrorism experts quoted in Germany's largest newspaper, the attack on Dubya might be a James Bond-like aerial strike in the form of remote-controlled airplanes packed with plastic explosives.

Why would Osama bi Laden want to kill, Dubya, his former business partner?

FTR: The guy died a few days after this was published. A suicide. Hatfield, for all his faults deserved better, like a Pulitzer.

5. The problem is the amount of hyperbole made the story vulnerable.

1. You don't "desert" or "go AWOL" from the Active Reserve or the National Guard. You only "fail to perform" if you miss drills or scheduled physical examinations.

2. What is the penalty for "failure to perform"? The penalty is a transfer to the Standby Reserve and , if your obligated service is not completed, an involuntary call to active duty for two years.

3. When GWB "failed to perform" he was transferred to the Standby Reserve. He was not called to active duty because, at the time, the Air Force was releasing personnel to get down to a post-VN end strength. They didn't need a pilot who was only rated to fly a plane which the active Air Force didn't use. In fact, they didn't need any more officers at all.

4. When GWB asked to resign from the Standby Reserve, that was granted. A lot of the folks that avoided VN by joining the reserve components did the same thing in failing to perform and getting discharged once the VN threat was gone and the services were being severely cut back in their end strength.

5. Despite the arguments over fonts and paper, the correspondence given to Dan Rather was "too good to be true" and any person familiar with military personnel ratings would have known. That correspondence goes itn the raters "desk file" maintained in the file drawer in the pedestal of the desk. It does not go into the office filing cabinets. It is also destroyed as soon as the officer in question leaves the unit or the officer maintaining the file in his desk drawer leave the unit. The secretary types the letter/memo and does not maintain a file copy, but gives everything back to the officer creating the letter/memo for his desk file. The recipient keeps the letter in his desk file.

6. Dan Rather was either the victim of a dirty trick planted by Rove or the guy in Texas that produced the letter wanted to make a name for himself in political circles as a hero of the left. Did a letter such as that at one time exist? I am sure that it did. Would a copy of that letter have survived in the 21st century? That would be very unlikely.
