The memos were real, before they were proven to be fake!
How’s about he’s a psychotically blantant lier or a blantantly psychotic liar - like most of his breed?
This has got to be the greatest case of Bush Derangement Syndrome I have ever seen. If you think about it, BDS really is a form of psychosis wherein the sufferer will even lie and not realize they are lieing, so long as it is against GWB. I have found no effective treatment for this ailment. Large doses of antipsychotic and tranquilizing medications offer only temporary relief.

According to Fox today, Dan Rather is not insisting the documents were real.
His argument is that he was just a tool of CBS and presented what he was told
to present.
Dr. Jeff, They suffer the same condition as sex offenders, a heavy metal defficiency. Easily cured, one injection.
I’ll bet Charles Johnson gets called as a witness....
Pupp, I might believe that for most news readers who are pretty much airheads. But Rather is a seasoned and capable journalist with decades behind him. There is zero possibility that he would have done anything similar to any Democratic candidate or office holder. He would have insisted on absolute verifiable data and background.
But then, Mary Mapes pulled a similar stunt here is Seattle in the 90s, I think it was, accusing Seattle cops of gunning down a guy complete with a witness who saw the whole thing! Turned out another reporter was on the scene and saw the “witness” shortly after the event stumbling out of the bushes drunk off his ass asking what had happened.
If there is a patsy, maybe it is Rather, but if there is a perp, maybe Rather but definately Mapes.
Someone just might want to see how Rather’s contract reads. I’m beginning to believe that See BS is letting him go forward to get out of having to pay him for the rest of his life.
According to Bernard Goldberg - in Bias - Rather bowed to no one - so his excuse is skating on thin ice. I wonder if See BS is going to call Goldberg as a witness.
Probably - as it’s all about the money. Always.
Dr. Jeff has the point. This is another manifestation of Bush Derangement Syndrome. It will linger - like the odor of dead possum in the attic - on just as “Bush lied, people died” and “the Florida election was stolen by the Supreme Court”.
Sad. Very sad.
