1. Right - Bill Clinton is a "book writer" too...

Wait until tomorrow for the COURT HEARING. If he were lying, then he could be tried for purgery,OK? So, then you can spend time trying to incrimate him.

Also, I am an Anthopologist, does that mean I have a secret motive to make everyone walk around without clothing?

7. Hey, welcome to DU

16. I'm not an anthopologist and ...

oh nevermind

[sabra]

2. Hmm...

I am confused?

4. Sabra

Please do not fall prey to such stupidity aimed only at creating trouble and dissention. Brad is very well respected. Ignore anything telling you otherwise.

:hi:

[sabra]

8. Thanks IAMREALITY

If possible can you give me a quick synopsis of what's going on? I just logged on a little while ago, and I find myself in a whirlwind of info...

Thanks,

14. Wow, That's a Loaded Question Sabra LOL

Basically Madsen's 4th article came out this morning. After that Brad Friedman from BradBlog Posted the affidavit from the man who had inside knowledge about the program used to steal votes with a lot of background info. I am uncertain at this time if the story is linked with the far bigger story of the five star trust etc from Madsen, but irregardless the affidavit itself is extremely interesting.

To fill you in on the drama, the affidavit is a 4 page scanned pdf file, notarized and all. The first 3 pages were b & w, while the 4th was in color and clearer. This led to speculation that the affidavit was fake, etc, but that notion is absurd. The document is real, and the explanation is quite simply scanner settings set to auto scanning originally in b & w, but with the colored signatures changing to color etc... The document is real, have no doubt. Unfortunately though we cannot yet firmly say that its contents are in fact real. We need to continue researching the story and will hope in the meantime that all the details are in fact, fact. To round out the drama, some DU'rs had their typical LEGITIMATE concerns as to the importance of the affidavit, the truth of it, and whether it will turn into a Dan Rather type episode. I personally don't think so, but to each their own. Other DU'rs however have been much more childish and troublemaking and are trying to smear Brad's good name for no good reason but to disrupt. These posters, should as always, be completely ignored.

Furthermore, there was breaking news that the man Clint, the whistleblower who signed the affidavit, found his 3 yr old german shepard dead tonight. This causes additional speculation.

Hope that clears it up for ya! LOL

oh yeah, the affidavit is here:

15. actually, I kinda like the guy ...I like the editorial he had posted here

slamming Bush back in the summer!

[IAMREALITY]

3. Excuse Me

Brad is an EXTREMELY well respected man. You think you are on to something but you aren't. Us Real DU'rs know how to sniff out bullshit, and Brad smells just fine.

[Razorback_Democrat]

6. Thanks!

I've read Brad's blog for some time now

He's not the only one with this story

rawstory.com has a link as well.

and of course madsen

the affidavit is legit

the material needs to be seriously screened

making fun or trying to discredit the messengers seems like a very Rovian thing to do

9. Welcome to DU

:D

[Old and In the Way]

5. There's so much disinformation out there, it's pretty hard to know

what's on the up and up and what's not.

But, then again, I feel like I've been in the theater of the absurd since November of 2000......

[Celebration]

10. curtis and brad

Their stories sound totally logical compared to those of Madsen. At least neither of them have mentioned bank accounts on the Isle of Man, checks from Nigerian scammers, etc. Maybe Madsen should be the comedian.

[rawstory]

11. Right, meet RAW STORY

Come on. If you want to make fun of a story, cite facts -- and trust me, I'm waiting. We're skeptical too. Feel free to PM if you believe you can debunk the claims, etc.

Thanks!

[KoKo]

13. Do you have a pix of yourself in the nude you can post in the DU Lounge?

Then folks would believe you...a regular guy...:D

[KoKo]

12. Hey...whatever...do a Google on the Swift Boat Vets for Lies and Clinton's

list of accusers...Lot's of fun there too. Jennifer Flowers, Kathleen Wiley, Paula Jones (who owes her current face to Clinton Impeachment) and the rest of the liars who gain fame and fortune like Colter, Tweety, Hitchens, Malkin.

Why are we Dems supposed to be so "pure." Didn't we play that game for 14 years and what did we get? An Impeached President, a Stolen Election after our Candidate was villified and lied and laughed about, A P-Resident that the Supremes had to install, a Midterm election where we lost everything else they didn't steal in 2000 and Now here we sit...after another "stolen election" where our Candidate was villified, laughed at, lied about...and we are supposed to be ABOVE "Brad Blog," "Curtis" and Wayne Madsen?

Give me a break. We played by the rules...but there isn't a game left that has any "rules." :shrug: So what are we supposed to do? Wait for Harry Reid's "Strategy" to win Dem Seats in the 2006 Mid-Term Elections..

Same old Song...Same old dance but there isn't a ball to go to..or even a third rate Prom...:-(
