Look to your timeline. The main media blew them off, for quite some time. It was only after the newer version of info outlets started pushing it that the main media eventually HAD to cover it. And even then, they started right in on the "it's all lies", and ended up looking very silly in the process.

Kerry lost the election, thanks in no part because (a) he is an arrogant, pompous windbag,

Yes. Too bad he couldn't pretend to be a Texas rancher and a man of people.

(b) he is a career do-nothing politician,

Had he spent much of his career losing other people's money in the oil business, he would have that much stronger a candidate?

Quote:

(c) he lied about his Vietnam and Cambodian service,

I don't think that cost him any votes, but the negative attacks about it surely did.

Quote:

(d) he made a mockery of the US Military after he returned,

That's a load of crap. And bilmore is old enough to still be refighting the Vietnam War, but you are too young for it.

Quote:

(e) he called his fellow soldiers/sailors "War Criminals"

Some of them were, which was his point.

As Apu said, The South shall come again.

Why is no one running with the Bush drug admission, anyways?

The media dropped that one pretty damn quickly.

Goddamn draft dodging druggie.

And we have been sources for each word of the preceding sentance than the Swifties have for any of their charges.

I was trying to say that Kerry will do about as well in the next presidential election as Lieberman did the last time around.

As I said many, many months ago, and more recently, Senators are not nearly the presidential candidates they think they are.

Hopefully Hillary will prove that sooner rather than later.

Horseshit. You wanna talk about bias, the fact that most americans have no clue that Kerry hid those records, while MSM went out of its way to concoct anti-bush documents shows the pernious extent of the problem.

I am so glad you posted that thing about eyes rolling and wrists being patted and people saying "yes dear," because it so perfectly describes my reaction to the vast majority of your, slave's, and penske's socks' posts. Though, sometimes I think "jesus fucking christ!" instead of "yes dear" and my wrist pats might involve fists.

the majority of Hank posts make her nips get hard.

Again, absolutely no response to what was said. All those commanders were just lying? He WAS in Cambodia?

His 180 would go far in disproving some of the stuff, and he's promised to release it, so . . .

I think that Slate did a pretty good job of rebutting the Swifties' allegations. I'll check their archives in a second.

why would you want her to prove it ever? is her mere presence a drag on the dems?

Did you crib this from the "about the author" section of Bill Clinton's book?

I have no idea what this means, but I do know that Dan Rather and Mary Mapes are now playing golf.

Figures. They're part of the media conspiracy and this just shows the pernious extent of the problem.

I meant that if she's going to run -- and I'd rather she didn't -- I hope she loses in the primaries, rather than the general election.
