Adam Clymer, retired political correspondent for the Times, recalls an episode during the 1988 presidential campaign, when Miller was deputy Washington bureau chief.

Then the political editor based in New York, Clymer was awakened just after midnight one morning by a call from Miller, he says. She was demanding that a story about Democratic candidate Michael Dukakis be pulled from the paper.

The story was too soft, she complained -- and said Lee Atwater, the political strategist for Vice President George H.W. Bush, believed it was soft as well. Clymer said he was stunned to realize that Atwater apparently had either seen the story or been told about it before publication. He and Miller argued, he recalls, and he ultimately hung up on her, twice.

She's showing Lee Atwater articles on the opposition before they're published & getting his approval???

Judy is a punk. But I'm not turned on.

Of course not. People think that she's a right-wing whackjob because she repeadtely wrote up the administration's lies.

Why is it, do you think, that Fitzgerald did not interview either the liar Wison or his CIA analyst wife Plame?

Dude, Why would he interview Wilson or Plame? They didnt have anything to do with it?? Plame didnt out herself. She was outed by Novak. Wilson didn't start talking about it until after her identity was revealed by Novak.

The only thing, Herb, is that Judy is a conservative. She was tight with Chalabi and took the fall for Scooter.

If you remember Fitzgerald’s press conference from a couple of weeks ago, he said that if the reporters had cooperated with him from the get-go, he would have been standing there in Oct. 2004, meaning that the President’s senior adviser would have been indicted a week prior to the election!

We should commend Judy for saving Scooter’s azz. If it wasn’t for her we could be talking about a President Kerry right now!!

The liberals had better step up their smear campaigns because they are losing their media support at an ever increasing rate.
