Reply #48: Interesting freeper thread 11/12/00--bush operatives build smokescreen [View All]

[John_H]

Somebody posts the WP story. A bush operative on the ground in FL immediately posts some shit about recounts being tallied in pencil--wants to get it to FAUX. He spells like a fourth grader, but he knows a damaging story when he finger-reads one.

More "operatives" on the ground, including one who appears to be from the campaign, try to crank up the pencil shit, "brain"storming ways to get it out brfore the WP story gets legs.

Normally FR threads aren't worth linking, but everyone knows the Chimp campaign used FR to mobilize during the recount. Here's an interesting bit of archeology that shows them in full panic mode.
