CNN suddenly taking the AWOL stuff seriously.
Woodruff just reported that one of the coWard's HBS professors says the coWard told him he got out of Vietnam by getting some help into TANG.

Better, Judy... maybe there is hope for you yet.

18. Smoking gun ...

Well, Bush is in hot water now because he has previously stated that he never served in Boston. He has been firm about being done with the guard by the time he got to Harvard.

But now we've discovered a form in which he pledges to serve his remaining guard time in Massachusetts. This identifies GW Bush as an OATH-BREAKER.

Now, if he can't uphold a simple oath to serve one weekend a month and 2 weeks a year, how can we trust him to uphold the presidential oath of office.

Of course, in response we have more criticism from the Swift Boat captains that never served with Kerry and MASH doctors who never TREATED Kerry.

2. The sharks smell the blood
and Rove may not be able to hold them back.

There may yet be a glimmer of hope for Freedom in this nation.

5. if scandal sells airtime
then K Kelley should be on every show 24x7. But mediawhores like Larry King wont touch her, chicken shit that he is and I liked Larry too, liked his show I should say. And she's been on his show many times. And Imus too, he wont have her on. He's an ass as well, Kerry all the way, now he's undecided.

Even Bill Maher last Friday seemed to be conceeding a * victory.

19. .. It's one HELL of a drug ....

COCAINE!!!!!!!

Thats what is under the covers. The reporters have been sitting on this for years. It could be that the Kitty Kelly book brings together the stories that will make documented allegations. Now they can REPORT on the accusations in Kitty Kelly's book instead of making the accusations themselves.

"Cocain is one HELL of a drug"
- R Kelly

8. They should also be PISSED
Once again, the White House has lied to them and now everybody knows it.

The press corps puts up with a lot from this White House, but they hate it when their sources tell them bald-faced lies, especially when someone else exposes the lies.

13. Don`t get too excited, Speedoo......
Judy gave the swiftboat liars about 3 1/2 weeks of air time. She has a lot of catching up to do before we`re even dead even.

As for the rest of the CNN crew:

DARYN KAGAN- dating Rush Limbaugh
MILES O`BRIEN- said that Kerry`s story about pulling someone out of the water is now in dispute
LARRY KING- a declared Republican
PAULA ZAHN- used to work for Fox `News`
KYRA PHILLIPS-said (about protesters)during Republican convention... `Why can`t they just arrest them?`
WOLF BLITZER-Starts out with a Republican talking point then introduces a Republican to underscore the message

Like I said, don`t get too excited.

16. Larry King
is a Republican? He used to be quite liberal. Did he recently declare that he is a Republican?

15. Where were they four years ago
When this story was initially making the rounds?

Just think if they would have paid attention then-- we may very well have not had a Dubya presidency in the first place, much less two wars we can't afford and the scorn of the world on us.

Nice job whoremedia. Very nice.

17. hey all, been seeing cnn and especially judy
putting it out real loud, and to be fair, to get the other side.

i have seen cnn working about asking repugs some quest, and questioning them on some they put out.

been different last couple days. maybe all the email

or could just be they always go after the one that isnt the under dog
