Rathergate.com was created on 09/10, one week before CBS "realised" their mistake. Registered by Mike Krempasky, who recently disclosed, that he is the political director for American Target Advertising, a Virginia firm run by Richard Viguerie, the conservative strategist widely credited with inventing political direct mail and helping Ronald Reagan and numerous other Republicans get elected.

The owner of rathergate.com gives a small post at the bottom.
Any thoughts?

they already know a democrat gave the documents to cbs, and democrat known to hate bush. I dont see how this couldve been staged, what would cbs gain by staging it and losing their rep for a very long time?

Considering it was first questioned on the 9th by bloggers everywhere, I think the simple fact that a TLD was registered on the 10th means nothing...

He also claimed he did not make them. So where did they come from?
