Get a grip, del !

I'd like to help set the record straight about Newt, too. Since you probably won't be hearing this from the mainstream media, here's news of Newt's vindication by no less than the IRS.

I tip my hat to Newt!

To the mainstream media... I give a loud raspberry and a vigorous finger salute.

MRC Blasts Networks For Spiking Vindication of Gingrich
"The Same Shameless Media Who Attacked Newt Gingrich
For Months Refuse To Acknowledge His Innocence"

ALEXANDRIA, Va.
--- "Bias defined." Those are the words Media Research Center
Director of Media Analysis Tim Graham is using to describe the extraordinary
decision by the Big Three network news departments to spike the story of Newt
Gingrich's vindication by the IRS.

"The same shameless media who attacked Newt Gingrich for months now refuse to
even acknowledge his innocence and vindication. This is bias defined, pure and
simple," Graham said.

Graham noted that despite an Associated Press report picked up by many newspapers,
as well as a New York Times story yesterday, the Big Three network morning news
shows didn't even run a mention of Gingrich's vindication. Neither have the evening
network newscasts mentioned the Gingrich story. The only network to run a story was
CNN, a full report by Brooks Jackson on CNN's Inside Politics and a mention
of the story on the CNN 8:00pm eastern time newscast as well.

"The same unfailingly partisan media which feverishly demanded Gingrich's head on
a platter over this non-scandal thinks perjury and obstruction are sorry subjects
to be glossed over," Graham said.

**** SLINK'S HENCHMAN BLUEMENTHAL COMMITS PERJURY *****

HITCHENS TURNS IN BLUMENTHAL, SAYS WHITE HOUSE AIDE DID SMEAR LEWINSKY

White House aide Sidney Blumenthal testified during a deposition in the Senate impeach trial that he did not tell reporters that Monica Lewinsky was a stalker.

"When it came to talking about her personally, I drew a line," Blumnethal said during his deposition.

House manager Lindsey Graham asked: "So, when you talked to you mother and your friends and Mr. Lyons about Ms. Lewinsky, are you telling us that you have these conversations, and you know what the president has told you and you're not tempted to tell somebody the president is a victim of this lady, out of his own mouth?"

Blumenthal answered under oath: "Not only am I not tempted, I did not."

But early today, journalist Christopher Hitchens [VANITY FAIR] swore in a affidavit that Blumenthal told him Monica was a "stalker" -- and Blumenthal "recounted to other people in the journalistic community the same story" about Monica Lewinsky!

Hitchens continued: "During lunch on March 19, 1998, in the presence of myself and name redacted Mr. Blumenthal stated that, Monica Lewinsky had been a 'stalker' and that the President was 'the victim' of a predatory and unstable sexually demanding young woman. Referring to Ms. Lewinsky, Mr. Blumenthal used the word 'stalker' several times."

The affidavit has been turned over to Sen. Majority Leader Trent Lott, who has shared it with Minority leader Tom Daschle, according to a broadcast report.

FOX NEWS CHANNEL's hotshot reporter Carl Cameron was first to break with the Hitchens development:

"FOX NEWS has learned from three sources that the senate is in receipt of a sworn affidavit from a Washington Journalist. Parts of the affidavit have been read to FOX News... The affidavit read to FOX NEWS says Blumenthal described lewinsky as "a predatory and unstable sexually demanding young woman" who pursued the president."

Cameron continued: "The affidavit quotes Blumenthal also talking about Kathleen Willey. Sources say Blumenthal said Willey was high in the polls, but implied that would change when things began to come out about her."

*** SEN. BYRD(D): KLINTOONS CRIMES WARRANT REMOVAL FROM OFFICE ***

Excerpt..

"It will be very difficult to stand and say 'not guilty,' very difficult," says Byrd, who just two weeks ago sought to dismiss the second presidential impeachment trial in U.S. history rather than have to cast that vote.

"Who is kidding who here? I have to live with myself. I have to live with my conscience, and I have to live with the Constitution. That Constitution is just like the Bible. You can't write it over," he adds.
