More than a mistake

Little Green Footballs:

The DNC is spinning wickedly, trying to minimize the effects of the CBS Killian memo scandal and relegate it to the nasty, but not too serious, realm of “dirty tricks”—who cares who did it, can’t we just move on?

But since the earliest days of the scandal I’ve been writing that the seriousness of this issue cannot be exaggerated. Someone, somewhere, sat down with a copy of Microsoft Word and set out to deliberately influence one of the most important elections in US history with fraudulent documents. The implications of this are huge, even if the DNC is not connected in some way.

This is why I’ve been so determined to keep the issue in the forefront. It’s not about Dan Rather, ultimately. It’s about the collusion of news media with the farthest of the far left, the new fascists who are so sure of their ideological purity that they give themselves permission to lie, cheat, steal, forge ... whatever it takes to advance their holy cause. CBS News has become so corrupted by this “true believer” mentality that their employees drive CBS News vans with anti-Bush slogans openly displayed in their front windows—at the height of the Rathergate scandal.
