"Kerry off the Deep End of Conspiracy theories?"
Edited on Sat Aug-28-04 02:03 AM by Must_B_Free
"Today the kerry Campaign leaked information to CBS News about an investigation into much ado about nothing. It is alleged that Israel may have tried to "sneak a little peek" at some US documents regarding the war in Iraq.

This illustrates a clear attempt of the Kerry campaign to try to promote dangerous and divisive "conspiracy theories" and an idiology of Anti-Semitic hatred to support their pro-terrorist, failed liberal idiology.

The reckless discretion of the Kerry campaign puts out tropps themselves in greater Danger.

Does Kerry even deserve to run in the election or should he resign? Our latest poll numbers say the majority of voters want kerry to resign from the race. "

:) - Just wait - that's what they'll say.

1. The source of the story is the FBI, not Kerry, sorry

2. Calling that a lie can easily solve that problem
Edited on Sat Aug-28-04 02:06 AM by Must_B_Free
just like it solved the problem of Kerry's military record.

Facts don't matter, they never did to these people. All you have to do is feed them a plausible story that allows them to save face.

4. Don't think that will work
"CBS News has learned the FBI has a full-fledged espionage investigation underway and believes it has "solid" evidence that a Pentagon mole supplied Israel with classified information, including secret White House policy deliberations on Iran. "

5. It's an FBI investigation. I don't believe the FBI leaked the news of it
it just says "CBS News has learned"

3. NYT says an arrest will be made next week.
Pat Buchannan said it was leaked to Kill the story and investigation. He said it must be huge in order for them to do it this way.

13. Repulsive as it may seem, Pat Buchannan is correct some of the time
You have to take his comments about Kerry in the context of his ties to the Nixon administration. Pat Buchannan is an old-school Nixon republican, who quite naturally has a king-sized grudge against John Kerry. As such, he's prone to engage in either wishful thinking or outright smears on matters concerning John Kerry.

OTOH, he may be quite right about the FBI investigation -- unless it's fueled by his dislike of Jews. Hard to say.

14. Non Taken, He is a total shill,
I only mentioned it because his comments disarm and take away the Freeper idea that Kerry leaked it.

7. I thought the same thing
Edited on Sat Aug-28-04 02:10 AM by Must_B_Free
the best defense was to leak it first on Fri night when noone is watching and then put some muscle and leverage into a deal to kill it by Monday.

It'll be interesting to see how AIr America handle the issue - Randi and Al Franken particularly. Randi is going to finally be forced to get in to Israel or stay completely away from the story.

9. The FBI leaked the story but...
what are we going to do? Invade Israel, don't think so. However, ever since 9/11 Independent news has kept reporting about Israeli spies. I never put much stock in it and until today, never thought it could be true. That Independent site has been right before, today I'm wondering about everything I've read for the last three years. The spies seem to have access to Rummy's office and the Pentagon. Who stands to gain from this, or what country?

11. Don't forget that Kerry is Jewish, which makes him part of the whole thing
Or at least his grandfather was.
