billvon 2,991 #28 October 22, 2004 >You say that he failed! Your opinion only!! So it is your opinion that he did NOT fail to remember his previous quotes, and is instead lying about them? Interesting opinion, one I think is somewhat rare in conservative circles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InflightSupv 0 #30 October 23, 2004 Quotemediamatters.org/items/200410210007 A few other errors of reporting listed on this site, too. This is so stupid. A misquote is something that all of us do everyday. Very few of us have photographic memories. As far as one news organization versus the other one? I would rather have someone talk off the cuff and not get it exactly right, than an organization repeatedly saying that something was real, when everyone on the planet knows that its a fake. CBS made a mistake, but it was after that, that they lost my respect. It was the way that they tried to find any shred that they could, to substantiate that they were right, and the way that when they realized that they weren't they utterly refused to retract. That is arrogance and they lost my respect for that. Kinda sad that some on here will jump at the chance to blast someone that they don't agree with, but are silent when their guy makes a mistake. (that was directed at all of us, myself included) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(that was directed at all of us, myself included) It wasn't a misquote, it was a denial. There's a lot of difference between a misquote and a denial that something was said when the evidence is right in front of you. Rather like claiming you have a good record on jobs when your administration has lost 900,000 - just a misquote. Rather like saying that your stated low priority on capturing OBL is an exaggeration, when your own White House website has the transcript showing that you said it - just a misquote.

headoverheels 333 #32 October 23, 2004 Quote So who's lying? Robertson or Bush? Which ever one's lips are moving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeMcLean 0 #33 October 23, 2004 Dan Rather's producer solicited and looked for "stuff" from a guy named Bill Burket. QuoteCBS' sole source authenticating the forged National Guard documents is Bill Burkett, who's about as sane as Margot Kidder was when they dragged her filthy, toothless butt out of somebody's shrubs a few years back. Burkett has compared Bush to Hitler and Napoleon, and rambles on about Bush's "demonic personality shortcomings."It wouldn't hurt you to think like a fucking serial killer every once in a while - just for the sake of prevention Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
