Ben Barnes' Daughter; Get Ready for another onslaught

[Xipe Totec]

This is a heads up.

This morning while discussing the CBS expose on the *'s Texas Air National Guard duty with a co-worker, he remarked that Ben Barnes' daughter said her father lied, so he felt the story had been discredited. :wow:

After I picked my jaw up from the floor I Googled and discovered that the freepers are already busy with the next wave of disinformation:

A woman purporting to be Amy Barnes, daughter of former Texas Lt. Gov. Ben Barnes, said Thursday that her father had fabricated claims that he used his influence to get President Bush into the Texas Air National Guard 36 years ago.

In a phone call to WBAP's Mark Davis radio show in Dallas, Texas, Ms. Barnes told guest host Monica Crowley that her father was an "opportunist" who had lied about Bush's Guard record during a "60 Minutes II" broadcast Tuesday night.

My co-worker heard a rebroadcast on Savage Radio up in New England.

1. Sounds like they took that trick out of the Howard Stern show

where someone calls up a local radio station and pranks them into thinking they're someone important who has information about the crisis of the day.

I'll believe this when they prove to me that the moon is made of Blue Cheese!

3. Of Course the story is BS

It is just in the early stages of Noise Amplification.

It shocked me to see how fast it moved from Texas to New England, and that it was getting air time.

2. She's already been on Hannity's radio show.

And, I think she was on Rita Cosby's show last night.

4. The problem is. . .

she says he never told her that he got Bush in, etc. . .

That's true, he never told ANYBODY for 35 years.

I guess she's (and the right-wingers) aren't bright enough to comprehend that.

5. Now Ben Barnes has to come out and call his daughter a liar.

LOOK at what KKKRove is doing. Not only has he divided this country, he's now pitting family member against family member. WHO would know the TRUTH about what he did? BEN BARNES would. Why would Barnes admit to his daughter that he had done such a shameful thing? Most daddy's wouldn't admit that kind of thing to their daughter. She should be ashamed of herslef for contradicting her dad. They must be estranged. We should get a DU investigator to dig up the dirt on her.

6. A classic exchange between Hannity and this 'daughter':

This conversation happened was on Friday.
Paraphrased:

Hannity: You do believe that your father is doing this to help Kerry, isn't that right.

The 'daughter': Yes sir, I do believe that.

Hannity: This is the kind of despicable politics that Kerry is playing with the American people. I understand why you would be hesitant to call your father a liar, but that is who he is, isn't that correct?

The 'daughter': I agree with you sir. I want Bush to win. He's an honest and honorable man and I'll do anything to get him elected.

Hannity: Thank you. It's true American patriots like you who'll be the reason why Bush will win this November.

See the hypocrisy. Ben Barnes wanting Kerry to win is an outrage. But the act of the daughter is patriotism.

12. "I'll do anything to get him elected"

she says. Like lie, True American Patriot?

[lanparty]

13. She'll do ANYTHING to get Bush elected ...

Sounds pretty open ended to me. How about murder, protitution and extortion??? Would you do that??? That's ANYTHING!!!!!

Lying seems pretty mild in that context ... huh????

7. Simply amazing and Soviet

And what basis would someone who is a child at the time have to make those allegations?

In the Soviet Bushmerika, it doesn't matter!

[Gin]

8. Certainly....as a daughter..she had in depth knowledge of what her father

did while in office. Didn't we all?

Bullshit!

[papau]

9. I want Bush to win. He's an honest and honorable man and I'll do anything"

Well, she is not hiding her bias!

:-)

[PDX Bara]

11. Bias

Not hiding her greed or arrogance either. Are those $ signs in her eyes?

10. Pretty soon the Barnes cat will be giving interviews

But that would be more credible than Barnes's bloated freeper spawn.
