Some insight into the Rather scandalous documents on “60 Minutes”:

++”In Dan Rather’s defense, it must be confessed, he is simply a newsreader. Now that Walter Cronkite is retired, Rather is TV’s real-life Ted Baxter without Baxter’s quiet dignity. No one would ever suggest that he has any role in the content of his broadcast.” –Ann Coulter

++ “CBS’s Andy Rooney once called Dan Rather ‘transparently liberal’ and advised him to ‘be more careful.’ It appears Rather should have listened.” –Larry Elder

++ “The CBS story is a hoax and a fraud, and a cheap and sloppy one at that. It boggles the mind that Dan Rather and CBS continue to defend it. … The ultimate excuse came from Rather himself, insisting his critics have to prove him wrong: ‘Until someone shows me definitive proof that they are not, I don’t see any reason to carry on a conversation with the professional rumor mill.’ Mr. Rather, you have it completely backward. The responsibility is yours to get it right in the first place.” –Brent Bozell

++ “End-of-life issues are always difficult for any family, and the once-great news division of a once-great network is critically ill and possibly beyond resuscitation.” –Cal Thomas

++ “Dan Rather, Professional Journalist, and CBS News, Professional News Network, want us to keep believing that they are the ordained purveyors of truth. … They are the information gatekeepers with unparalleled judgment, dedicated to the high principles of The Craft of Journalism, unwavering in their crusade for the public interest. As the saying goes in the blogosphere: Bwah-hah-hah.” –Michelle Malkin

++ “How long before they start including a laugh track in the ‘CBS Evening News’? Each night anchor Dan Rather appears to offer an increasingly hilarious defense of his reliance on fraudulent documents for last week’s abortive hit piece against President Bush.” –James Taranto

++ “A CBS spokeswoman told the [Washington] Post: ‘In the end, the gist is that it’s inconclusive. People are coming down on both sides, which is to be expected when you’re dealing with copies of documents.’ Translation: We can’t prove the source is true, but you can’t prove it’s not. Well, since this is the new standard, I would like to announce my next column topic right now: Dan Rather has eaten fifteen German Shepherds in the last year alone and he considers himself the Warrior King of the planet Blarnack. I have just printed out documents that back up my story. It is for CBS to prove me wrong.” –Jonah Goldberg

100 people dead in Israel, dozens and dozens are wounded. Initially they said this was a gas explosion. This is definitely a terrorist act and no gas explosion!!!

Jamaa Al-Islamiya Al-Alamiya (World Islamist Group) claims responsibility for the explosion at the Taba hotel, carried out in revenge for the Palestinian and Arab martyrs dying in Palestine and Iraq,” said an anonymous tipster “Jamaa will carry out a series of martyr operations (suicide attacks) during the month of Ramadan to avenge these martyrs,” he said. The holy Muslim fasting month of Ramadan begins in mid-October.

This is an orchestrated failure of intelligence. They’re very good at what they do well. KGB, DGI, all the agencies of the world have contact with each other.

Iran’s nukes-Israel’s on the case-We have sat glibly in this country, not recognizing that the day when these events start to happen, it will be everywhere.

November will be the point of no return for taking out the Iranian nuclear program. That phrase “the point of no return” means trouble.

We couldn’t justify a pre-emptive strike on CIA information after the 9/11 reports of problems with intelligence…I don’t believe there was any problem with intelligence, this is an orchestrated failure-ON PURPOSE.

Tonight, Laura Mansfield is very busy on the Jihadi forums, translating their of the bombing…

As the death toll continues to rise in the attacks on the resorts in Sinai, the reaction on the Arabic language forums has been swift and predicably very much anti-Israeli.

From the Hesbah Forum,

NightJourney 62 writes: Allah is the greatest Allah is the greatest. Three explosions and the death of 23 Zionist pigs.

The Egyptian police speak of another explosion in the area of Nuweiba between Taba and Sharm Al-Sheikh, and Cairo says that 23 Israelis were killed in the first explosion at the Hilton Hotel in Taba.

(quoting a news source)

A strong explosion in a hotel in Taba occupied by Israelis.

A strong explosion shook a hotel where Israeli tourists stay in the city of Taba, located on the Egyptian side of the borders with Israel. The initial reports report that there are large numbers of victims due to the explosion, but the cause is not know even though initial reports were that it came from a gas leak.

In a followup post, NightJourney 62 writes: Allah is the greatest, all praise be to Allah.
The number of dead and injured rose in the explosion and according to sources in the hospital at Taba. Al Jazeera reports that 29 Zionists are dead and more than 100 injured.

It is clear; may Allah grant us victory, and that it be delivered so that the eyes of Allah’s enemies shed tears and taste what they have fed to our sons in Palestine. It is worth noting that Night Journey 62 claims to be female.

Meanwhile, on the Ansar forum, the response is uniform. One poster after another is posting messages praising Allah, saying “Allah Akbar”.

On the Islah forum, one poster claims that the explosion in Taba was intense enough to be felt (or heard) in Saudi Arabia. A poster known as Non-Arab Full Moon says Oh Allah make this day a curse for the sons of Zion and their followers.

Creator of News claims that the explosion at the Hilton were the result of twin suicide bombers.
Samira el Azzdi posts Oh Allah, we want more of these blessed operations.

Have you seen the John Kerry commercial in which George Bush pledges to help Seniors on Medicare and “the very next day imposes a 17% premium increase - the biggest in history”?

That ad is a stroke of genius on Kerry’s part and will surely gain him many votes among the uninformed.

As it turns out, the 17% increase was not imposed by President Bush but was mandated by the “balanced budget agreement” signed by President Clinton, and was scheduled to come into effect now, i.e., during the Bush administration.

President Bush had no authority to reverse what had been voted into law by Congress, including Senator Kerry, during the Clinton administration.
