Mary Mapes, Deranged RetardDon't pick a fight with a deranged retard. When enranged, they gain the strenght of twenty men, and come at you with full retard-strength fury, a cyclone of elbows and teeth and brightly-colored mismatched sneakers. Omaha, Neb.: In Appendix 4 of the Independent Review Panel, Peter Tytell, a widely acknowledged typewriter and document examination expert concluded that "the Killian documents were generated on a computer" and that they "were not produced on a typewriter in the 1970s and therefore not authentic." Given his indisputable expertise, wouldn't this end the debate as to whether or not they were forgeries? Note that these documant analysts who support the authenticity of the documents are not named. One thing I thought was pretty funny was that, while Mary Mapes was blasting bloggers for casting doubt on the documents, she was more than happy to cite left wing bloggers making the (specious) case the documents were real. She didn't call them bloggers, though; she called them "experts." I don't know if she's found real experts to authenticate these documents -- I pretty much doubt it -- so I'm guessing she's still relying on ultrapartisan lefty blogger "experts" as proof of the documents' authenticity. Kinda funny. Bloggers are partisan and not to be trusted, unless they agree with you. Then they're the Gold Standard. Are you gonna trust Mary Mapes, or your own lyin' eyes? I don't understand why the MSM, when questioning her, simply doesn't put that .gif up and ask her to explain it. Oh, wait, I do. First, it came from a partisan political operative, and second, the evidence is just too damning. They question her with some amount of toughness, but, at the end of the day, they want to leave the question open. Putting that graphic up simply closes the "debate" completely, and even Mapes' skeptics want to keep hope alive. Journalism Is The First Draft of History, Book Deals Are the Baldfaced Lies of History Update: One of the document authenticators Mapes employed -- and then completely ignored -- calls Mapes on her various lies, ommissions, and distortions. Best bit: A dog-ate-my-homework moment. Emily Will sent Mapes a .pdf file outlining her concerns and doubts about the documents, but Mapes claimed she couldn't open the file. Another woman the file was sent to said she had no problem opening it. Mapes read that goddamned file. She just wanted to feign ignorance, so she could tell her higher-ups that "experts agree this is authentic." Thanks to Bart. posted by Ace at 03:27 PM

Even if I didn't have Acrobat Reader installed on my computer (yeah, right), if I'm a TV producer making a show that attacks the President of the United States, might I not ask the person who is reviewing my work to fax the document to me, or can I not be bothered to even waddle my sorry ass over to the fax machine? This is just plain horsehit. Posted by: The Colossus on November 11, 2005 04:11 PM
I saw the video of her with Wolf "If you've got a more Teutonic name I'd love to hear it" Blitzer and Kurtz. It was like watching somebody swear up and down that the sky was mostly made of cornstarch. Posted by: tachyonshuggy on November 11, 2005 04:17 PM
Just saw Mapes on Cavuto... WOW. This woman is a nut. She looks like a nut... you could tell it took every fiber of her being to refrain from exploding into a fit of paranoid leftist ranting. She wouldn't answer any questions that Neil asked her, and kept lecturing him on how she knew soooo much about the story that he didn't, without ever saying what the hell she was talking about. Bundles of fun. Posted by: Dave S on November 11, 2005 04:24 PM
Excuse me, but are you still fighting the Vietnam War? Or the last presidential election? Either way, I'm pretty sure they are over now. You know, when so many people got some help to stay out of the war in Vietnam, I think it's so remarkable that George Bush just fulfilled his responsibility instead of using his family influence. And I'm sure eventually someone will turn up who remembers serving with him. Eventually. Posted by: tubino on November 11, 2005 04:26 PM
Bush and I were Lieutenants (Fellow Pilot Comes to Bush's Defense)
'Bush and I were lieutenants' George Bush and I were lieutenants and pilots in the 111th Fighter Interceptor Squadron (FIS), Texas Air National Guard (ANG) from 1970 to 1971. We had the same flight and squadron commanders (Maj. William Harris and Lt. Col. Jerry Killian, both now deceased). While we were not part of the same social circle outside the base, we were in the same fraternity of fighter pilots, and proudly wore the same squadron patch.

I'm with Dave. During all the hoo-ha we never got to see what she looked like, and so I assumed she must be some kind of cast-iron bitch on wheels, who was able to intimidate any of the CBS management, and make them think twice about raising objections to her story. Now that I've seen her it's obvious to any layman she's cat-lady brand crazycakes, and hardly an intimidating personality. Makes me question CBS's judgement even more.

Yep, I'm still a major league douchebag. But I'm sure I'll get a few of you rightwingnuts to respond to my lies and outlandish statements. Posted by: Toobeano on November 11, 2005 04:44 PM
You forgot another danger of fighting retards--like babies, they are for some reason always sticky. Ew. Posted by: Tom on November 11, 2005 04:49 PM
Hah. You people still debating ancient history? Still stuck in the past? Whatever. Everyone knows Bush stole the election anyway. Posted by: very small tube on November 11, 2005 04:53 PM
Tubino, someone already DID respond to your "lies and outlandish statements" by linking to an article in which one of Bush's fellow guardsmen DID vouch for him. Or are you going to now raise the bar, as is the common tactic, and claim that you didn't really mean that you wanted a witness, but, rather, that you wanted x number of witnesses? Furthermore, it is fairly common knowledge to anyone who actually pays attention that Bush actually requested to be placed in a program that sent pilots like himself to Vietnam, but was turned down because he didn't have enough flight hours. In short, I'm not really sure what you're getting at, nor do you, I suspect. Merely insinuating that there, beneath the surface, exists a genuinely profound and important question will not suffice. Posted by: Dave S on November 11, 2005 04:55 PM
I've sworn never to respond directly to Bean-O again in my lifetime, so can some kind soul please do me a favor: give Bean-O a shot to the nuts and mock him while he's lying writhing in pain on the ground. As Kramer would say: do me a solid! Posted by: Monty on November 11, 2005 04:59 PM
Everyone knows Bush stole the election anyway. True dat. It sort of annoys me, though, the way Bush only selectively steals elections. I mean, the election a couple of days ago that was a bad sign for the Republicans (as the media has informed me) would have been a great opportunity for a whole slate of election steals. I'm a little disappointed that the passed this opportunity. Or maybe they are only accused of stealing the ones that they win, when, in reality, they don't really steal them. Who knows... I'm so confused now. Posted by: Dave S on November 11, 2005 05:02 PM
Monty, it is defending forgeries that are so laughably obvious, they might as well have been written in red crayola. Posted by: lauraw on November 11, 2005 05:04 PM
Uhm...maybe you all should get a life? That whole thing was years ago. Its kind of pathetic, how you people just can't let go of the past. BTW, Clinton was framed. Posted by: very small tube on November 11, 2005 05:07 PM
I think the reason we never saw her during Rathergate was BECAUSE she comes across as a complete loon. It would not have done CBS's credibility any good at the time to have allowed her to defend the memos on TV. Now that she's a free agent with a book we're seeing her because it's in EVERYBODY's interest (her, her publisher, talking heads show producers) to get her onscreen and talking. And let's face it: her dogged failure to employ any degree of rationality during Rathergate is what will sell the book to the other crazy people.

Talk about the "Fake but accurate" crazy mindset: The DUmmies, many of them, have avatars of Fitz accompanying their profiles. When do you figure they're going to turn on Fitz? I give it a few more weeks until they label Fitz as a Rethuglican patsy. Oh, and they're so "upset and distraught" over the atrocities commited globally by Bush thugs. Yet they never mention any other atrocities. Don't they care about Tibet and Rwanda, anymore? What about Tibet? What about the guy who makes all those nifty cool Free Tibet bumper stickers? He's got to make a living too, you know. P.S. Anyone who responds to the Asshole Who Shall Not Be Named will receive a swift and painful ass-reaming by me. You've been warned. And S. Weasel has fulfilled his obligation to AWSNBN and is now free to resume his regularly scheduled programming. Posted by: Bart on November 11, 2005 05:26 PM
Anyone who responds to the Asshole Who Shall Not Be Named will receive a swift and painful ass-reaming by me. Huh. Somebody sounds a wee bit too eager. Posted by: on November 11, 2005 08:46 PM
"Emily Will sent Mapes a .pdf file outlining her concerns and doubts about the documents, but Mapes claimed she couldn't open the file. ....Mapes read that g** file" I dunno, is she evil or just plain dumb? How smart do you have to be to get a management position in a field where facts and logic don't seem to matter? Posted by: Chuck on November 11, 2005 10:08 PM
She couldn't open the one file that would have prevented the memos from being used??? How convenient. And how deliciously ironic that acknowledging that file would have also saved her job. Lame ass excuses like that got me in trouble when I was, like, age 10. Chuck, apparently if your politics are 'correct,' you don'e even have to be much of a grownup to run in those circles.

"14 species of large animals capable of domesitcation in the history of mankind. They point out Africans’ failed attempts to domesticate the elephant and zebra, the latter being an animal they illustrate that had utmost importance for it's applicability in transformation from a hunting/gathering to agrarian-based civilization. The roots of racism are not of this earth. Austrailia, aboriginals:::No domesticable animals.
AIDS in Africa.
1. MUCK - perhaps have experienced multiple universal contractions (have seen multiple big bangs), creator of the artificial intelligence humans ignorantly refer to as "god" Terrestrial management: 4. Chinese/egyptians - this may be separated into the eastern and western worlds Movies foreshadowing catastrophy Many Muslims are being used like the Germans and Japanese of WWII::being used to hurt others and envoke condemnation upon their people. They can affect the weather and Hurricane Katrina was accomplished for many reasons and involves many interests, as anything this historical is::
This is the system on earth because this is the system everywhere. I don't want to suggest the upper eschelons are evil and good is the fringe.
The clues are there which companies are favored and which are disfavored, market domination being one clue, but they conceal it very hard because it is so crucial. I offer an example of historical proportions::: Media ridicule and lawsuits are creations to reinforce people's belief that Walmart is evil in a subsegment of the indistry dominated by the middle and lower classes. The middle class is being deceived. They are being misled into the unfavored, and subsequently will have no assistance from their purchases with corporate america. I believe the coining of the term "Uncle Sam" was a clue alluding to just this::Sam Walton and WalMart is one of few saviors of the peasant class.
Royalty is the right way to organize a society. Dictatorships and monarchies are a reflection of the antient's hierarchical organization.
Simpson's foreshadowing::Helloween IV special, Flanders is Satan. "Last one you ever suspect."

It's the anniversary of the Biden debate debacle.
Biden's senility becomes undeniable. The Democrats pronounced that he had clearly triumphed in the debate. How CNN reported Biden's "intense" debate prep before the debate and then after. Amy Klobuchar predicted victory. The Washington Examiner looks back at the Night of Great Stuttering.
Kari Lake, just when I think you couldn't get any dumber, you pull a stunt like this, and totally redeem yourself!!!
I think the Democrat is arguing that the political appointees should exercise no control over their rabidly communist VOA employees. This is what they're always arguing -- they stock the bureaucracy with literal communists and then claim that the voters should have no control over these unfirable radicals. Lake offers a for-instance that will appeal to this Democrat of allegedly-suspect bedroom guests.
