Edited on Fri Dec-21-07 10:00 AM by Blackhatjack
THis is typical of the idiotic ideas pushed by people who read Drudge.

1. Both Edwards and the woman in question deny he's the father
Edited on Fri Dec-21-07 10:08 AM by rocknation
The woman has issued a statement that the father is recently departed Edwards staffer.

2. Yep but Drudge won't mention that ... it would destroy the false illusion he is creating. n/t

3. Drudge is doing the GOP dirty work. Edwarcs is and has
been their most dreaded candidate.

8. During the "President Potty Stop" scandal
Drudge ran a story insisting that the hand in the photo writing the infamous "bathroom break" was note Georgie's but Condi's!

13. Well, we can't let facts get in the way
of a good smear campaign, now can we?

Why do you hate 'Murika?

5. I stopped listening to Cspan when it became apparent
That most of the call-ins on the puke side probably had stills in their backyards. And had married first cousins.

WJ is Fox Lite. :puke:

6. It's annoying but their headlines do nail the stories of the day
even if they're spun. To his credit, the host questioned the wisdom of going to the NI for your news. :)

7. Yes, I heard that. It is a drawback of the format allowing anyone to call in and spout off...
The story in the National Enquirer differs substantially from the misleading cover that Drudge put up on is site and labelled as 'Developing'

Drudge caters to the low-life Repub, and the callers raising this are consistent with that characterization.

10. I recall finding out awhile ago that the Clinton camp had "made amends" with Drudge...
perhaps this is a reflection of their new friendship??? I wouldn't doubt it....hell, they enjoy the company of Murdoch....

11. If Steve Scully was the WJ Host...then it's not surprising. He's quoted Drudge before
and anything Scully can find about Dems that's negative he always "reports it."

12. I remember that he was the host that responded to a WJ caller
who was outraged about stolen 2004, "So, are we going to hear about this for the next four years?"

But, he didn't do that today. He questioned the reliability of the source.
