First Find the Forger - William Safire, NYT

“That was no mere "dirty trick"; it could be a violation of the U.S. criminal code. If the artifice had not been revealed by sharp-eyed bloggers, a national election could have been swung by a blatant falsehood.”

Yo, Bill – SOTU, 16 words – sound familiar!?!?! When are you going to be calling a criminal investigation for the geniuses who wrote that POS?

I'm sure we'll soon be reading your protests of the Swifties as well...

:grr:

2. no doubt. The SBVfT committed libel. Anybody going to court for that?

3. You friend Bill

(sorry don't mean to insult you, but since you are calling him Bill) :)

Has repeatedly argued that those 16 words ARE true.
Even *, a pigheaded "could do no wrong" asshole admitted it was a crude forgery. Billy-boy lives in a more extreme world of spin!

5. Hey Bill...your old buddy Thornburg is going to find the forger....

He's going to be investigating this. Just your kind of guy.


Which brings us to the latest offering by Democratic strategist and Clinton campaign manager James Carville. I first became acquainted with Carville years ago in Pennsylvania when, after the tragic death of Republican Sen. John Heinz, he ran the campaign of an unknown college professor, Harrison Wofford, against that of Republican Gov. Dick Thornburg to fill Heinz's seat.

Thornburg had a huge war chest, the backing of the first President Bush and had served two terms as governor. Wofford wasn't given a snowball's chance in hell. But Carville and his candidate pulled it off, and Thornburg was forced to take a position as secretary of something or other down in Washington.
