10/26/2004: "October Surprise"


I already posted about those missing Iraqi high explosives; I just added a link from a reserve officer that writes better than I do.

Here, I include a link to Drudge about the most disturbing part of this story:


XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX TUE OCT 26 2004 11:02:38 ET XXXXX

In 1992 it was the Iran Contra charges brought days before the election... In 2000 it was the DUI charges a few days before the vote... And Now...

60 MINS PLANNED BUSH MISSING EXPLOSIVES STORY FOR ELECTION EVE

Once again, The New York Times sits on a story in hopes of swinging an election with partially digested half truths. As I said before, shame on them.

Anyway, I kinda want to claim credit for crying "BS" about this story Sunday night; I was one of the first. Perhaps that means little more than I have no life. I'd prefer to think that my BS detector had a good day.

More importantly, I want to note that Senator Kerry was very fast to jump on the story. His press release came out before 10:30 Monday morning; about 12 hours (?) after the New York Times released their article. Twelve hours is not enough time to digest news of this magnitude. The timing implies collusion to me. Either that or a rush to judgement on the Senator's part.

Again, shame on them. They sicken me. They are trying to alter the outcome of an election of the leader of the free world with underhanded smear tactics. They are not waging an honorable battle of ideas.

There is little more important to me than free and fair elections. There is little more important than winning the war on terror. And the Kerry / NYT axis of evil is on the wrong side of both issues.
