But after your earlier assertions that Rather has secret evidence he is holding for a future court date, I see why you want to get off topic. Perhaps you could attack my spelling also

But since you lost the actuall debate, it makes sense you focus on this.

well tazzy, the essence of yours and mnots argument, is that Rush and Rather did the exact same thing....

Which is not true. Several differences, the program, the amount of time, the level of apology. So its a bull shit argument

Mnot lied and said he apologized on the Nightly News.

You guys desperatly (for the purposes of theis argument) must pretend a false equivilancy, ie they did the same thing. Which as has been clearly established in this thread they did not.

So Mnot insults, and you focus on silly posting convention....because you know you can't actually make the argument that they are the same.

Mnot (and someothers) tried in a very dishonest way of taking a couple of sentances out of context. But the full transcript was already posted.


Tazzy I am sorry if I misinterpreted your comment about the sceret evidence for court. I assumed that since you brought it into the debate you considered it valid. Since you consider it invalid, why would you have brought it in?

I guess I am confused by that. What % of your posts should be considered nonsense that you yourself do not agree with? Could you mark them in the future?

So you do think Rather has secret evidence he won't release untill some later court date (after not releasing it in the first 2)? KooKOo KooKoo...

Actually Tazzy the documents Rather ran with had been checked and were found to not be authentic before he ran with them...In a story they worked on for weeks. And a few weeks later he made a semi apology.


Rush was told something by a caller and corrected it 30 minutes or so later.

And according to you Rather maintains he has secret evidence proving his point, which for some reason must remain hidden for now, which frankly makes no sense.

They seem significantly different to me.

RML, nice clip that shows it was not a real apology. Not even Rathers words, he didn't write it.

The documentation was shown to be false within hours of being aired....yet it took 2 weeks to get the acknowledgement that they were using fake documents as the primary basis for making a report.


the whole lame standard of it cant be proven or disproven...you should be ashamed of yourself.

There is no evidence that Bush was AWOL. And plenty of evidence that he recieved an honorable discharge.

That you are now using the standard of "birther" is ridiculous.

No, not using birther standards.

There is a great deal of questionable facts surrounding his service. 

Even how he managed to get a coveted Air Guard pilot slot when he had zero flight experience.

Then we can move on to those missing months, which no one has provided an explanation for.  Not to mention the recurrent training he was assigned for yet never completed.

Myself, I think you should be ashamed for not researching the issue thoroughly before rushing to his defense.
