10. Yeah
As if Kerry being seen with Lennon is a BAD thing.
FU Drudge.

By the way, that photo has been floating around the Net for ages.
This reeks of desperation.

3. My gut says its BS.
The alarm is there to make it seem like a big deal. Even if the guy was a crazy, I bet he never had a shot in hell of getting near Bush.

Drudge wants to distract from the true BIG story of the day. BUSH LIED, PEOPLE DIED.

4. Im thinking youre right
on target. We all know that whenever major lies happens, we have to redirect attention and gain sympathy for said LIAR.

11. Exactly.
It's the whole Morton Downey Jr. I got beat up by neo nazis in an airport bathroom PR play. Fucking pathetic.
They've probably already fed the guy who "portrayed" the guy on the plane to crocodiles or cut his throat. They really are getting desperate.

6. Not Quite
You said, "Drudge wants to distract from the true BIG story of the day. BUSH LIED, PEOPLE DIED."

Have you not looked at the DR lately? He's been POINTING THIS OUT! Drudge is not so much pro-Bush or Anti-Clinton as he is a Sam Donaldson type -- raise hell with whomever for whatever. He's changed a lot. MANY of the links on the DR link to anti-Bush stories. Never thought I'd say it - but it's true.

7. Right....
Edited on Fri Jul-11-03 11:12 AM by GumboYaYa
show me the link on Drudge's page to the CBS story confirming Bush lied.

If this was Clinton it would be blaring and every story anywhere that mentioned it would have a link. I can't find a link on the Bush/Niger story. If it is on the site somewhere it is buried.

5. No attempt. . .
. . .its totally being downplayed on cable news. There was an impostor who posed as a reporter, he was not harmed, et al. . .

12. It Was an Attempt at Journalism
It was on the Shrub press corps that the fellow hopped on, without credentials or being challenged---------he, realizing NOTHING is needed. Haha. He was making a point.

He was in the throes of desperation at the Prudenized "reporting" and took matters into his own hands.

As for the poster above AGAIN claiming to notice another recent turn towards us by SLUDGE, he's been claiming to detect other such, previous turns for months, previously supposedly on the grounds of many "peace" items. The ONLY intersection SLUDGE even SLIGHTLY might pretend to with us is what he shares with other wingnut libertines like Bob BARR, demands of privacy and civil liberties for THEMSELVES, largely because they want the porn of their own lives to remain private-----uh, while wanting to expose and judge the lives of others. SLUDGE is a shallow, wingnut JERK who is damned to Hades by any one of MULTIPLE heinous transgressions and is irredeemable.

13. A man made it on
Edited on Fri Jul-11-03 01:33 PM by Incognito
a "press" bus. Not discovered until they reached their destination. He was never near the asshole. I won't tell you what my thought was when they gave that report...the secret service would be on my doorstep.
