in other words they are guilty as sin but are sweeping it under the rug if they can...

especially if the link is positive back to the kerry campaign

I think they darn well should be telling, and quick, about the connection between Mary Mapes of CBS and the Kerry Campaign.

They have already TRIED to influence the election.. and it blew up in their faces. NOW they show some concern?

It was alright when rather was bashing the President with false memos, but it would not be right to tell the truth before the election.

Yea right

Down with Rather

Boycott CBS news and Dan Rather 60 minutes

Well, yeah...they sure wouldn't want to be accused of helping the President get elected, now would they?

*rolling eyes* Geez!

We have to just laugh. At least I have to.

The alternative is to cry, and that accomplishes nothing. So laugh while you point out this hypocrisy in your emails and postcards and letters.

Don't get "pithy" with them - just keep your letters "pithy" and smile.

Start your letter with something like, "This would be hilarious, if it weren't true!" And keep smiling while you write - it will show in your notes.

God help us - a month to go and the moonbats have blatantly and shamelessly taken over the media. Rolling Eyes

Is there really anybody out there still left that really believes anything CBS says as being genuine or truthful? Do they really think we might be blown away by their findings that it might actually change our minds when we go and vote? Lay your cards on the table CBS and let us decide. Quit being girlie men! Down with Rather! Down with CBS!
