Do you think Mary Mapes was horsewhipped over superscript
because of her work on the Abu-gareb prison scandal, her and Rather? The more i see her making the rounds with her book the more i feel that they took her out becasue of the prison scandal.

1. I didn't realize she was the one that broke the story.
I heard Larry say this on his show. I am looking at her now on Hardball...she is an attractive woman.

9. It could be the case.
But remember the story of the CBS executives visiting the White House crying that they won't do stuff like that again?

4. She said she believes the doc's were real.
And that the faxed copies aired on CBS looked different than the one's she received.

5. i think that story isn't over yet. Something will come out sometime
that will prove in writing that Bush got a pass.

6. Yeah, it was great listening to her talk to Tweety about how the files
in TANG in Austin got scrubbed in 1997. She said Karen Hughes was responsible for getting that done (bastards). And the secretary said the story is probably true, but those weren't the documents.

7. The more I see of her,
the more I trust her judgement. I will definitely buy her book. I agree that this episode is not over. She is a serious person, and I think she is prepared for another round of conflict.
