3. If I tell you he was on Hardball, does that give you enough of an idea?
Seriously, though, I just caught a few seconds of the Hardball exchange between he and Tweety. He was talking about rightwing bloggers and how they helped get the story in the media.

That's as helpful as I can be, but frankly all you need to know is that he was on Hardball.

8. I wtched that too. He made me sick. He stated that it was "freeper experts
Who alerted the media to problems with CBS guard story. He named freerepublic.com and gave them credit! He also praised Drudge. He makes me sick. And ther is nothing wonderful about taking down Dan Rather!

5. Trippi's a fucking idiot
If he doesn't know what he's talking about he should just STFU when it comes to validating freeper tactics. The dumbass just sat there on Hardball and proclaimed "Bunkhead" a document expert, and said that's how the whole "problem with the documents" came to light.

Goes on to trash Rather and suggests that he has a real problem. Get fucking lost Trippi!

7. Jeezus. What's wrong with that guy?
How could he be so misinformed?

Why would he push the freeper side of all this?

12. Because he ran Dean's internet campaign and
wrote a book about the internet and I think he's on a terminal kick that the internet RAWKS even if it's freepers.

That's my view.

20. Thank god for Olbermann

who just exposed Buckhead as a lawyer in Atlanta, and also a
well known WRC operative who has done work with Ken Starr in
the past. So tell me, how does a lawyer become an expert
on typewriters and fonts and shit? I'm really beginning to
believe that Rove created this and fed it to CBS and then
fed the "debunking" to this lawyer, from there straight to
Drudge, and then to the media.

22. This theory makes the most sense to me.
It also innoculates B$$$ from the story because the forgery becomes the story. Also all the RW pundits are trying to tie it to the DNC. It also makes people ignore these stories and avoids talk of the failed pResidency.

16. another one of these guys who...
....gets PAID to comment but gets it all wrong!

Yeah..."BUNKhead" (as we know) is a lawyer, not a document expert.

And (as we know) it wasn't a serendipitous discovery. Trippi had the path of the story all wrong.

And, he said it was a "black eye" for Rather, assuming the worst for CBS.

I guess I'll have to email the guy and set him straight.
