September 2004: CBS and the fake Bush documents

During the ’04 election, I warned my liberal friends to avoid the Bush military service story.  I recall this story back in ’94 when Bush beat incumbent Richards. 

It came out during the campaign and Bush answered some questions. Richards dropped it, in the same way that Al Gore killed it in 2000.

I warned my liberal friends to stay away from this story.  It was not a story.  It was a lot of nonsense promoted by people with an agenda rather than people with the truth.

I said: Don’t fall for this garbage.  I also told them that Bush would be reelected with a majority of the popular vote and that Republicans would sweep the Senate. 

But my liberal friends are bad listeners. They should listen to me more often.


The liberals of 2004 could not avoid the red meat of an anti-Bush story. They fell for it like a bunch of suckers eating out of Karl Rove’s hand.

And so they learned the hard way that the story was nonsense, as many of us had warned them!.

P.S. Bernie Goldberg wrote about this bias years before:
