Right wing takes lesson from Rove
Edited on Mon Nov-08-04 07:00 PM by raysr
It's not enough to win, they have to rub your nose in it, check out this LTTE today-"_________________I'd still like these questions answered
At the risk of being accused of flogging a dead horse, I would like some answers to the following questions:

1. Why did the press require President Bush's military records be released but not Mr. Kerry's?

2. Why did the free speech advocates allow, with open arms, Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" and George Soros' moveon.org while trying to kill "Stolen Honor" and anything said by the various Vietnam Veterans groups?

3. Why, during the late evening following the election, did the news people nationwide, with the exception of FOX News, ask leading questions designed to play down the President's votes and play up any hopes Kerry may have had?"

Not sure where he is getting any of this.

There were lots and lots of getting Kerry's record out talk. As far as I know it was out.

No one said Stolen Honor couldn't be played -- the complaint was that it was being shown as news on over the air stations.

As far as the media other than FOX -- uh, I can't say what you are talking about -- never heard people from other networks playing down Bush's votes. In fact, quite the opposite.

Again -- not sure where this is coming from.
