1. No offense, but the DSM has already gone away
The media has ignored it from the start, and most of the Democratic leadership seem to want to ignore it too. Rove doesn't have to do anything.

We're shoving this down the throats of the media. It's the biggest story of 2005. Stay tuned.

3. I'm not going to hold my breath
I signed Conyers' petition, and I would like nothing more than to see the DSM and the new memos make frontpage headlines, but I doubt it's going to happen. The mainstream media has decided to utterly ignore it.

6. THE MSM ignored many of the Clinton scandals
Edited on Wed Jun-15-05 03:12 AM by iconoclastNYC
Thats why Richard Mellon Scaife had to spend millions of dollars paying people like David Brook and the other members of the Arkansas project.

The right wing manufactered impeachment out of bullshit. They paid a so-called journalist to print what he now admits were lies and insinuations. They created a feeding frenzy in the media.

We have to make this happen. You helped by signing the petition. 500,000 signatures is a big deal.

If you matched to stop the war, why not march to get the investigation into the lies that gave us the war?

Howard Dean taught me something:

The people have the power. The people have the power.

If the GOP has a problem with what Dean has said so far, I have a feeling 2005 is going rough for them.

11. I admire your dedication
I'm afraid I'm more cynical than you. I just don't see the DSM becoming a major headline, but I certainly won't be upset if it does.

As far as your original question goes, I'd say that Rove probably figures that the DSM will be easily overshadowed by the inevitable upcoming announcement that we are pre-emptively invading Syria to find Saddam's missing WMDs ;)

4. I'm scared that its going to be Pearl Harbor version 3.0
I think ChimpCo's next target will be the Golden Gate Bridge. It’s a horrible premonition I've had for quite some time.

They hate California as much or more as they hate New York, and they need to spread another dose of fear to squash those pesky memos and get the poll numbers headed back up again.

Needless to say, I hope I will be proven wrong!

10. I was trying to express
What easter egg is Rove going to throw to the Press to make DSM go away?

That it will be off-the-wall weird, totally unexpected, and
completely dissonant.

:crazy:
