IMUS (MSNBC-GE owned) & Brokaw (NBC - GE Owned) - documents
Brokaw giving the "news opinion" that the documents aren't real and CBS has to work it's way thru it.


I don't think CBS-Rather are going to let this sit.

1. This thing is beginning to stink of Rove and media complicity...
and becoming unsettling, and even frightening. As this election gets nearer, it becomes clearer to me that the Bush cabal does not intend to let go of the power they seized in 2000. I'm not talking about the campaign, ours or theirs, when I say that my concern grows each day. And it looks like the majority of our people may be willing dupes of the cabal, and their media enablers.

2. What do you think they will do?
I would not put anything past the Bush regime to commit even murder to keep their power. I am surprised CBS News has gone this far to be honest. I am wondering how the Bushites are going to spin this? I hope Dan Rather is watching his back.

"What's the frequency, Kenneth?"

6. With a complicit media, you don't really need murder --
you can convince enough people/voters of anything. You can use any trickery, any deception.

You can also threaten people, you can use both carrot and stick, to get people to come forward or to prevent them from coming forward. Remember on the House floor, the retiring Rep. was given the choice of his son's being guaranteed to succeed him, or guaranteed not to? That was brazenly done in the U.S. Capitol. Imagine what is done out of view.

The cabal can also control events, the news cycle, and God knows what else.

Sorry, I'm a little freaked out by this murky business. I'll probably snap out of it in a bit.

3. Scary, isn't it?
Even if Kerry legitimately wins the election, there is no way they will let him take office. There will be some huge stealing of the election, or martial law or something. Our country is in such deep trouble when people like this are in charge of everything in this country. This is no longer America.

10. I've been holding my breath for several days on this... given
Rove's successful attempts to blunt this all in 1999, with the smearing of the Fortunate Son author, who has since "committed suicide." If these documents are forgeries, I'd bet my bottom dollar, Rove is behind it.

4. IMUS saying the "widow" says it's a hoax -- how much is she getting for
that $$$$$$.

This is BS...and avoids the issues. AWOL was favored...he's a punk.

5. Oh Imus.....
you were once a force to be reckoned with on radio and I am afraid you have lost your mind. You are becoming a media whore just like the rest of them. Very sad indeed. Maybe it's time to retire.

8. Imus is one thing -- Brokaw is another
Brokaw, deservedly or not (and I think mostly not) is, I think, highly respected -- "greatest generation," etc.
