Another "Distraction:" Terry McAuliffe Was Using Words From Forgeries 9 Hours Before Rather's Broadcast Began

Is it possible -- possible, mind you -- that perhaps CBS gave him advanced knowledge to help "sugar-coat" the Democrats' coordinated attack on Bush?

Nah. That would be irresponsible speculation for which there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever.

Let's talk instead about the likelihood that Karl Rove and/or Roger Stone created the forged documents.

This is why Democrats always have their panties wadded up over some nutty VRW Conspiracy theory.

Because these numbnuts actually are engaged in conspiracies...a thief thinks the whole world is crooked.

They never. Stop. With the bullshit.

One of the idiots over at Kos has just spun the entire RatherGate into a Bush defeat of the first magnitude.

Entertaing reading if you can stomach willful self-delusion and ignorance on that grand a scale.

Warning: Blatant Link Whoring ahead.

If this is distracting from other issues, how come I've had time to blog on the fact that Kerry thinks that consensus building is best accomomplished by pissing everyone off? Or that Kerry, a son of Massachussetts, is now rooting for the Yankees?

Ace,

Jim Geraghty at Kerry Spot is retracting:

FINAL UPDATE: I spoke to Jano Cabrera, DNC press guy. He politely explained that there was teleconference on Bush's military record, but McAuliffe did not use the phrase "sugarcoated" — and there is a transcript. The "sugarcoated" remark came in an e-mailed statement that was distributed to reporters as the "60 Minutes II" story was beginning, and was based on the posting of the memos on CBS' web site.

Again, I blew this one, folks. My bad.

Brian,

Screw the details; the Democrats must answer the charge. ;)

Cordially...

Posted by: Rick on September 23, 2004 05:45 PM

Because they're inaccurate but true, right?

I'm glad you're kidding.

Dammit, why is my email address suddenly questionable content?

Posted by: Brian B on September 23, 2004 06:04 PM

Blame the redhead. That's what I always do.

Posted by: lauraw on September 23, 2004 08:44 PM

Ace, check Geraghty on NRO.

THIS is how a correction should be handled.
