My subject line was: I support Dan Rather and CBS News

**********************************************

Hello,

First off, I wanted you to be aware, if you aren't already, that I got your e-mail address from:

http://www.rathergate.com/

So if you've been inundated with e-mails demanding Dan Rather's head, you can thank Mike Krempasky and his neocon minions. He's even asking for donations to pay for his bandwidth!

However, I want you to know that I support Dan Rather and Mary Mapes and I don't think they did anything wrong. If anything, there is more to this story, isn't there. They need to find out who created the false documents, because obviously it's not someone in the Kerry camp. Besides, it doesn't change the facts about Bush's service in the TANG. He WAS absent for several months, he didn't report for a physical and he did get grounded. He received preferential treatment to get into the TANG in the first place, then he didn't serve his full time. How "honorable" is that?

While they're at it, perhaps Mary and Dan can find out the 500 names on the TANG waiting list that Bush got to leap frog over. Now there's a story. Who served in Vietnam in Bush's place? Who took a bullet for him? Who came home less than whole? Who came home in a box? George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Karl Rove are the ones who are dishonorable, not Dan Rather or anyone at CBS news.

Also, thank you for being part of the network that broke the hideous Abu Ghraib story. We have not forgotten.

Sincerely,

My Real Name
