Brit Hume is on Fox right now and is asking all the questions about Winter Soldier, showing Pitkins retraction even adding something about 'powerline.

It's great.

Note: Topic changed to cover general discussion of this current event. Thanks for your post.

Yes!! Let's all thank Brit for this. I asked him in an email last week to
please assign someone to investigate these issues. Also, he's doing an
excellent job talking to the web logger who caught the CBS scam!

KUDOS!!

If anyone in MSM takes a serious look at VVAW, I will be shocked.
Pandora's Box for Kerry..........

Fox has kept many stories alive. Widespread understanding of the actions of the VVAW will be the death of Kerry's career.

yes, writer for Powerline is on now.... Scott Johnson (also a lawyer)

before him a former cbs executive was on demeaning bloggers....

also on the steve ripkin part, brit had David Thorne (kerry's ex brother in law) who was also in the winter soldier group saying that kerry didn't force anyone to testify (well, I suppose he didn't really hold a gun on anyone) and that HE will sign an affidavit to that effect. I'll believe Steve.

(something seems very weird here.... anyone seen a recent picture of David Thorne???? He looks just TOO much like Howard Dean! )

I expect that in the condition a few of these guys were in (like Steve, just home from war... injured... depressed, not knowing where to turn or who they could talk to (after what they had see over there and came home to) ) it seemed to them they were being 'forced' to testify.... strongly pressured and threatened is what I'd call it.... and David Thorne ? was he with Kerry every minute? did he know everthing that was going on? and even if he did, and he went along with it, he is probably just covering himself now... and what wouldn't he do for Kerry????? who he thinks might become president????

should be rerun later today....

powerlineblog.com is one of the big boys on this story. They, along with littlegreenfootballs.com, hughhewitt.com, allah.com, indcjournal.com, and instapundit.com were on the case all day long on Thursday and Friday.

Sept 9, 2004 is the day the "NeoPopulists" broke the back of the MSM domination of the news.

It's hard to go back to tv (Brit and Fox after the local guys) after breathless hours in front of my computer screen Cool

Great article here:

I don't think that anyone from VVAWs Winter Soldier "Investigation" would like the attention. Most were Posers who had not been in Vietnam or their duties would not have placed them in a position where they would have "witnessed" anything remotely close to their claims.
I say "Bring it On John!!" Let's drag that disgusting piece of history right out of the closet you have hidden it in!! Kerry does not want this out there, that is why he would not allow his first book to be re-released.

Can't they find someone else besides Kerry's ex-brother in-law to vouch for him, or Hurley, he knew Kerry during the VVAW, the MSM failed to
mention this. Let's go get Al Hubbard, he knew Kerry very well. The press proved he was a fraud back when he was with Kerry in VVAW.
How about how those"veterans" who gave "testimony" to atrocities?
Where are they? Time for the "Winter Soldiers" Kerry spoke about to
return, this time to expose Kerry.

Hurley has already had to recant his claims of committing Atrocoties. Former members of his Engineer Company nailed him on it. I for the life of me will never understand the need to tell lies of that magnitude. It is almost as they look upon it as a badge of honor. Sick Twisted people!

Fox is showing a killer instinct over the forgeries. They've got Blather and the Commie Broadcast System by the short hairs and they're not letting go!

He didn't keep a straight face. Brit smiled twice with restraint and once broadly. Not like him at all.
