Unlike Bush...nobody died because of CBS fake documents

[KennedyGuy]

Both Dan Rather and Bush were taken in by fake documents. Bush was fooled by phony documents about WMD. Unlike with Rather, 1000 men have died because of bush and his fake documents. Where are the cries for that investigation? Every democrat on TV ought to be bringing this up.

1. And if Bush were a man he would stand up and apologize for

attacking another country based on forged documents. But we know it would be a cold day in hell before that ever happens.

2. try not to feed the trolls. it's that time of the year...

...hello from auburn.

3. I hope you are not implying that I am a troll

I can assure you that I am not.

4. There are so many ways to turn thisd on Bush* Do our surrogates

who will undoubtedly be pestered about this on TV for the next three days, have a set of talking points from the DNC to counter this? So far, I've seen two just lay down and die.

I hope more DUers do what a friend of mine is doing--she's picked a couple of surrogates she loves and a couple she thinks continually drop the ball and is TIVOing every one of their TV appearences. If I know her, you gan bet impacfully edited DVD's will be passed along to the most appropriate places win or lose.

5. When will Bush be a man and apoligize like Rather?

I guess it's ok for the president to lie in the state of the union address, to be fooled by fake documents.

6. apologize?

it's only OK for a president to lie IF he's a Resuckplican

7. Hold it... the documents haven't been proved to be fake.

CBS just hasn't been able to prove they are authentic. Doesn't mean they are, in fact, fake or forged.

8. can't authenticate --> does NOT ---> equal FAKE

I agree.

I can't believe how so many in the media have allowed republican spokespeople to call the CBS story and the documents fake or forged.

This is not a deduction that can be proven.

Rather and CBS can't prove they are authentic.

Republicans can't prove they are fake or forged.

We need to correct people on this line of thought.
The documents are not known to be fake.

Plus, why the outrage over CBS but no outrage over the 16 words in the state of the union?

drives me nuts!!!
