I Stand With The
Democratic party, Howard Dean, Dennis Kucinich, Russ Feingold, Wes Clark, and all the other good democrats that are in this country fighting for America!

Why is everyone so emotional about Truthout's truthiness?

If it is true, they will have scooped big time.

If it is false, then they have probably been duped.

Either way, DU will go on, the blogosphere will go on.

The corporate media is dying on the vine.

The new media is here to stay!

It's not like the corporate media hasn't ever been wrong. Look at Dewey and Truman. Look at any number of times the corporate media gets it wrong. It's the nature of the business.

Now before someone attacks me for suggesting that Truthout is wrong. Let me say, I have no idea. I want Rove to be indicted, and he will either be indicted or not and Truthout will have nothing to do with that I imagine.

I like Truthout as a web site. I like to read the stories, etc.

I will not lose any respect for them if they are wrong.

I will gain tremendous enthusiasm for them if they are right because it means that they have cut off the corporate media and scooped the biggest story of the year easily.

Thanks

3. We always have to be weary of the Neocons blowing things
out of proportion to get us to turn against ourselves......

We know that Truthout is a good source....if they got it wrong shit happens..

It seems to me the New York Times and other MSM have gotten wrong in the recent past and they are still going.....

I agree with you....

5. I am recommanding your thread cause that's what I thought Duers
would stand for, most of them anyway.

I found it sad to witness brave dedicated activists tearing up each other reputation and intents.

I am a pacifist and if I want to be true to myself I have to stand by people who listen to reason and their heart.

So, with your permission I will stand beside you, hoping that many more will join.

peace

And for that, I thank you. This should be 'nuff said on this subject.

8. Very reasonable. I expect you to get trounced, though, because
you reasoned that there is the possibility the story may be false or someone was duped. That's what the fight is about.

No one dares suggest that could be a possibility.
