I just watched Dan Rather
No wonder rove wanted him off CBS. He tells the truth. Rove was the one that forged the letters. They were true but because they were forged the whole story got lost. I hate bush.

2. He went over the spending bill and mentioned
the pork most of it republican. Said that Drs were told to say that abortions could cause cancer. Mentioned all the cheap tricks in there in addition to the let me examine you IRS tax return for the hell of it. He is the only honest one on network news. O cable now that I think about it.

3. Dan Rather was Framed
Dan Rather was set up with those forged documents. And I'd bet the farm they came from Rove - good call. What it succeeded in doing was burying the Bush AWOL story by shifting the focus to the documents. Now people think that the story is false when it was just the documents. Smooth move, Rove. May you rot in hell.

There are a few truth-tellers out there: Keith Olbermann of MSNBC's Countdown and, my favorite, Jon Stewart of The Daily Show.

Bless them all.

4.  forged documents - forged was not shown - only that the source could
not be verified.

The suggested "forged" methods appear to be disproved - but I await the official report.

6. always the same result with dan rather
JFK murder gets blamed on a 24 year old kid and bush gets away with a whole bunch of crimes....did rather ever question the official nonsense about 911? KAL 007? the staged Reagan shooting? The corruption of the mass media? the true story of the 2000 election? no, no, and never..... the enemy always wins and rather was there acting like journalist

5. Dan Rather is the only real reporter left
And I plan to watch 60 Minutes until he retires from there too. I couldn't believe it when he announced his decision. :cry:
