I keep hearing that Kerry is going to get hurt by an article on Monday

[sidwill]

Anybody have info on this.

A freeptard on another board says Kerry is going to get hurt by an article released in a major Newspaper monday.

I can't see how since Bush has been proven to be an incompetant liar over and over and over yet again but he still pulls about 47% approval.

Anybody have a take on this?

1. It's been floating around here for days

It's just trash coming from the Wash Times.

Don't be worried at all.

4. Didn't WT just publish their Bush Boner today??

[pagerbear]

8. Bush boner?

I missed it. And I think I'm glad!

5. Thanks

@

They are just hoping for aan October surprise, but I believe one is not forthcoming.

11. Washington Times? How Typical

I think it was a Monday ed. sometime in October in 1992 that the Washington Times made the ridiculous "Clinton trip to Moscow" story. An attempt was made from "Vietnam Veterans" of Congress in a wee hour Special Orders session, to be seen on C-SPAN where Bob Dornan, Randy "Duke" Cunningham and others made a big deal promoting this lie.

The difference, this time, is that there's a media that will probably try to run away with it (just like the SBVT). The goal is to debunk it ASAP. And I would not refrain by also pointing out the Moonie Newsletter that the Washington Times really is. Why should other news sources even pay attention to this rag?

2. Nothing to worry about..

Its articles and press releases from right wing papers & media

[madrchsod]

3. washington times if the earlier

posts are correct..wow i`m really waiting for their breaking news....

6. Be very aware

that your little troll does not fool most of us.

some of us, sure. but not most of us.

7. People keep saying 'don't worry,' but what is it?

What is the substance of the 'article'?

[Mojambo]

9. Read it on Monday

If you're so interested.

There's going to be a lot of disappointed Freepers when it breaks.

[sidwill]

13. Will it be as anticlimactic as...............

Sinclair's "Stolen honor" har-har


I was on another board and the Freeps kept posting links to the video online and saying "don't bother to watch the broadcast" it was delicious.

[uhhuh]

16. The Gist

Kerry was answering a question posed to him about whether or not U.S. forces should use flamethowers or napalm to attack the caves in Afghanistan where Bin Laden or Taliban fighters may be hidden.

He said he thought the U.S. forces were doing a fine job without using those measures.

This ( according to wingers) shows that his criticism of how chimpy conducted things in Afghanistan is disingenuous because, see, he praised their actions on T.V. before. See what a flip flopper he is? See? See?

It's stupid, it's out of context, and it's nothing.

Forget about it.

[The Chronicler]

20. Huh? Iraq and Afganistan are two different fronts.

Am I missing something?

[uhhuh]

21. Apparently

Since my post had nothing to do with Iraq.

If I said the question was during the fighting in Afghanistan in 2001-2002, would that help?

[The Chronicler]

25. You mean his criticism of Bush's failure to get bin laden (nm)

[uhhuh]

26. Yep

[WI_DEM]

10. Expect the sabatoge press to do what they can but I doubt

anything will come of whatever this is.

[geek tragedy]

12. I KNOW it's nothing to worry about--here's why.

1. Washington Times--The media whores don't respect it because of the Moon connection.

2. Someone who knows what it is (a hardcore rightwinger) said it was "Not huge, but interesting."

3. It deals with a foreign policy criticism by Kerry of Bush. In other words, it is the wingnuts trying to play defense--which is not in Bush's game plan.

Pass it on.

14. I keep hearing that freepers like posting things on DU that promote

the smears and attacks that emanate from their side.

Anybody have a take on this?

:shrug:

[sangh0]

18. Well, that would be pretty transparent, don't you think?

.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

23. Not meaning to "point fingers" or anything...

[sangh0]

28. That would be wrong

[H2O Man]

33. nice picture.

good message. not too subtle.

[tishaLA]

19. I've heard that too

I wonder if there is any truth to those rumors. Some people say they are true.

[LoZoccolo]

15. I think it will be about advocating letting Iran have nuclear fuel.

Which he mentioned during one of the debates in front to little controversy. If that's it, it'll be a dry heave.

[swag]

17. It's that Tora Bora shit, and it will blow up in Bush's face

because the facts back Kerry.

Hi, Freeper fans!



How do you spell Toast with only one letter?

W!

22. Maybe Fox already has the story. Just said Clinton to be UN Ambassador

Flipping through channels, stopped when I heard Fox discussing Kerry's planned appointments (wonder if JFK knows about them yet?) and the big one was Clinton was to be the next Ambassador to the United Nations and that Bill wanted the job so as to give the U.N. a "makeover". If all fails next week, drag out Bill Clinton. The right seems to think America hates him. Well his BJ never cost one American life! Bush lies have caused tens of thousands!

24. Should let this thread just die, no?

27. They waited too long.

The early election in many states negates a big "surprise" on Monday.

29. OK last breath - it's probably a decoy for something breaking about Rove.

Moon Times = tool for right operatives

30. I believe it's a new TV ad based on Kerry's vote against the $87B

Been looking for the link since this morning, but I read an article by Morton Kondracke on Realclearpolitics in which he said an ad was being developed with footage of Kerry during a TV interview saying that anyone who voted against the $87B wasn't fit to hold office.

[sonicx]

31. if that's true, hopefully he will finally bring up the bush veto threat.

[Lucille]

32. Remember that Clinton will be campaigning on Monday

They will definitely do something to try to steal his thunder. Even if the "big story" is later proven to be nonsense, they need to get the public distracted.

This story about the Kerry's response to the "flame throwers" question was dropped by Mickey Kaus around Thursday last week. Since that time, numerous bloggers have pointed out that Kaus obviously hadn't read the whole transcript.

34. Just goes to show ya...

... not to pay any attention to freeptards, doesn't it? Doesn't it??!! :boring:
