They are repelling in through your window as we speak (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A30043-2004Sep17.html)

In e-mail messages to a Yahoo discussion group for Texas Democrats, Burkett laid out a rationale for using what he termed "down and dirty" tactics against Bush. He said that he had passed his ideas to the Democratic National Committee but that the DNC seemed "afraid to do what I suggest."

In another message, dated Sept. 4, Burkett hinted he might have had advance knowledge of some details in an explosive segment that aired Sept. 8 on CBS's "60 Minutes." In addition to airing footage of an interview with former Texas lieutenant governor Ben Barnes saying he helped Bush get into the Guard, the network broadcast documents purporting to show that Bush had disobeyed a direct order to take a physical required to continue flying in the spring of 1972.

"I believe that Bush knows that there is more coming out than Ben Barnes," Burkett wrote. "No proof, just gut instinct."

In another development, the Los Angeles Times reported that an Atlanta lawyer with conservative Republican connections posted the first Web log entry questioning the authenticity of the CBS documents less than four hours after the initial broadcast on "60 Minutes." The paper identified Harry W. MacDougald as the "Buckhead," who became a hero of conservative Web sites after pointing out technical problems with the documents, such as fonts and proportionate spacing

Just remember folks, what is being posted in discussion forums online now has the potential to end up in the Washington Post.

Better run those spellcheckers.:D :lol:

Let's just highlight this:In another development, the Los Angeles Times reported that an Atlanta lawyer with conservative Republican connections posted the first Web log entry questioning the authenticity of the CBS documents less than four hours after the initial broadcast on "60 Minutes." The paper identified Harry W. MacDougald as the "Buckhead," who became a hero of conservative Web sites after pointing out technical problems with the documents, such as fonts and proportionate spacing 4 hours after seeing the images . . . . isn't that a little fishy?

The rest is pretty meaningless as far as I can tell.

Why would it be fishy? Four hours is certainly enough time to do a little background research and the post those results to a blog.

The rest is meaning as you mentioned. I didn't mean it to implicate a Republican or Democrat per se. Rather I thought it interesting that they were using how a person had posted on an internet discussion forum as a motive for their actions in the real world and that all this ended up in the post. Seeing as we all post and discuss pretty heavily in a discussion forum, I thought it fun to point out that we all might be next.

Remember those guys that were at the ice cream shop Pfflam? You just thought it was a coincidence... Bwaahahahahah.:devil:
