Hearing from freepers today about VInce Foster photos

[romantico]

Can someone explain to me again what the conspiracy is with all this.I can't keep track of all the right wing's claims against Bill Clinton.Also, can someone tell me why the Clinton's would want this guy killed?Aren't there more people who you'd think they'd want to off than Vince?


I guess the freepers on my local right wing hate radio show aren't pleased about these pics not being released & todays topic is ALL ABOUT THE CLINTON'S & VINCE FOSTER!

Ha! & they say we're the conspiracy nuts!LOL!

[aquart]

1. Pictures of what? The body? His high school graduation? What?

[dae]

2. When all else fails, roll out the Clintons.

[romantico]

3. They were trying to release the pictures

to prove he was murdered.A judge refused saying it would be too painful for Mr.Foster's family.Repugs cry CONSPIRACY!

[BOSSHOG]

9. They want to release the pictures of Foster

to get the attention away from a factual event - bush lied about WMD and could not possibly have cared less about Al Quaeda or pending terrorist attacks. They are running so hard and spinning so fast that some one is going to get hurt.

[dae]

10. I caught the earlier thread, all of this was gone over years ago

to no avail. My point is the right-wing only keeps using the Clinton scare for what they perceive as mileage/votes. To them the average American view of the former President would be: Clinton = Anti-Christ

[PaDUer]

11. They're on that topic again??

Every couple of months they rehash this..Remember when that whacko freeper took it to court and lost and made an ass out of himself..They need JOBS!--let them step right up to their nearest recruiting station and help fight their buddies wars.

edit--BTW, where's the link to this thread for today?

[BOSSHOG]

4. Do they have pictures of Abraham Lincoln's autopsy

proving, beyond a shadow of a doubt that Bill Clinton went back in time and was responsible for the evil event at the theatre that dark and stormy night?

[BR_Parkway]

5. Why? Lincoln would NOT be welcome in today's ReThug Party

[TheDebbieDee]

7. Lolololololol!

Bill Clinton going back in time to kill Abraham Lincoln - very funny.

[CBHagman]

6. I suspect there's a special place in hell for the people...

...who have been exploiting Vince Foster's suicide for over 10 years. If you encounter such types, ask them how they would feel if someone wanted to exploit autopsy photos of their loved ones.

[lancdem]

8. Vince Foster's death was ruled a suicide over and over again

by all kinds of investigators - even KEN STARR! Tell that to the freepers.

[robertpaulsen]

12. Why are freepers being disloyal to Bush? Where is their PATRIOTISM?!

Stupid freepers don't realize that the BFEE wanted the Supreme Court to rule this way. Now that their guy is in power, they don't want a precedent set that would force them to give up compromising photos in any future scandal they have.

"The Bush administration maintained that a victory for Favish, known as a Clinton antagonist, could lead to the release of other sensitive information, like autopsy photos of U.S. soldiers killed overseas and pictures of unidentified remains from the Sept. 11 attacks."

13. High Court Permits Foster Photos Withheld

High Court Permits Foster Photos Withheld

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that the government does not have to release 11-year-old photographs from the suicide of Clinton administration White House lawyer Vincent Foster. The unanimous decision makes it more difficult to use a public records law to access law enforcement records. Justices said the privacy rights of survivors outweigh the benefits of releasing some photographs.

A California attorney had sought the pictures, saying they might prove that Foster was murdered as part of a White House cover-up.
``Family members have a personal stake in honoring and mourning their dead and objecting to unwarranted public exploitation that, by intruding upon their own grief, tends to degrade the rites and respect they seek to accord to the deceased person who was once their own,'' Justice Anthony M. Kennedy wrote.

Multiple investigations determined that a depressed Foster shot himself in the head at a Civil War-era park in Virginia in 1993. The 48-year-old longtime friend of Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton was handling several personal legal matters for them at the time.

Always wondered: did he know Clifford Baxter, who 'committed suicide' after Enron went down the pan....?

14. it's their MO

They think (and given the 50%+ approval ratings of Bush right now despite
the economy, the war, the lying, etc), basically "every little bit helps".

Every little thing they can dig up to poison our discourse is a net plus
for them. They are playing for keeps, forever. Some will even admit
right to your face they know Foster killed himself, they just don't
CARE.

Like when Ken Starr told Carville at DC National Airport (I refuse to call
it by it's 'current' name) "your boy's gonna get rolled". They KNOW
they have no case, but if they can just infect 50% + 1 person with
the poison, they win EVERYTHING.

Democrats aren't willing to do that. Not to mention, you also need
another element. Rubes and dopes, which there aren't enough Dems
to accomplish. The 'smart' ones read everything they can on Foster
so they KNOW it was suicide, but by releasing partial data, they can
get the Rubes and Dopes to keep the story going for the Poison Effect.

I consider the Media to be the Smart Ones. They could dump this
non-story. They don't WANT to. They WANT to push it for the Poison
Effect. They could humiliate the Rubes and Dopes. They DON'T. They
give them Equal Time (the 'fairness doctrine' turned upside down) to
Rubes and Dopes to spout theories they are unqualified to spout.

And people who work hard and don't have time to wonkishly pay
attention are 'poisoned'. There's always SOMETHING in the back
of their minds that says "maybe Clinton DID have Foster killed.
A lotta people seem to say on Fox that it's true (while I'm channel
surfing)".

Even a 24/7 blitz showing every document (even ones from Starr, et
al) on TV showing it's all bullsh*t wouldn't help.

"Of COURSE the Libbrul Media is going to cover for Clinton! Clinton
probably THREATENED St Kenny Starr so he'd put out that exculpatory
report on Foster".

Duh.

15. Theory: right wing operatives killed Foster because he...

...found out about their plans to destroy the Democratic party and take over the world.

Hey! It's just as credible as the wingnut "Hillary did it" theory. Probably more credible.

[11 Bravo]

16. Tell the dumb bastards it was a 9-0 decision.

Hell, if even Fat Tony and his lawn jockey don't think there's anything there; even a freeper should be able to figure out that the time has come to let it go.

[Vickers]

17. Ask them about Dale Earnhardt's autopsy photos

I have a RWer friend, and he's brought this up a couple of times, and I always reply "Yeah, and they should release Dale Earnhardt's death photos, too" and that shuts him up for a spell.
