"... telling a 'different story' from the one she told National Review and the one she told in her lawsuit. In reality, however, the tape omits all of the most critical moments of the raid, and corroborates Archer’s account in many key respects. To the extent it exposes differences between what was recorded and Archer’s recollection, those differences actually offer slight encouragement to those who wish to see law-enforcement officials obey constitutional mandates...."
David French (in The National Review) has some perspective on that Daniel Bice piece we were talking about yesterday.

David French calls Bice `the left'.
Bice can now write `the right desperately tries to bury story about Scott Walker'
It's fun calling the other side rank partisans. You can do it too!
Let's just start the killing. There's obviously no point in talking to you. I give up. Congratulations, you have destroyed America.
Crucially, the tape omits the beginning of the raid, in which Archer reports that the police pounded on the door, held a battering ram, confronted her while she was completely undressed, and left her terrified that they would shoot her dogs. Instead, the tape begins at an unknown time after those events occurred, when an investigator apparently approaches the house with the scene secure, Archer’s dogs under control, and Archer and her partner (who’d been interrupted in the shower) fully dressed. However, at the 18:50 mark Archer does describe what had just happened, In other words, the tape doesn’t contradict Archer’s story of the initial entry, and, in fact, her contemporaneous statements corroborate the story she told NR.
Once the recording starts — again, at an unknown time after the initial entry — it not only corroborates other key elements of Archer’s claim, but confirms the incredible breadth of the investigation. In fact, the clearest voice on the tape — belonging apparently to Aaron Weiss, a Milwaukee County investigator — says (beginning around the 28:00 mark) “This investigation has been going a long time. . . . I heard you say outside that’s why they forced you out. We touched a lot of people in this. It’s a pretty broad net.” And he acknowledges that “a lot of these things are politically charged.” He also notes that the investigation has “grown and grown and grown.” Beginning at the 4:00 mark, Weiss reads the extraordinarily expansive search warrant and then — at 9:20 — he reads the John Doe secrecy order that required Archer and her partner not to disclose to anyone but her lawyer the contents of the search warrant, or even the fact that she’d received it. Ludicrously, Weiss claims that the secrecy order will actually benefit Archer, saying that no one will know what they talk about. Yet even as he was speaking, neighbors and members of the press were outside watching the raid take place. The public was allowed to know that Archer’s home was raided, yet Archer was prohibited from speaking out to try to clear her name.
Bice is obviously a tool.
It's Bice's unfortunate problem that he ran headlong into a real journalist. Maybe he'll be luckier next time.
We all know that Mark is not a rank partisan.
David French calls Bice `the left'.
It's got a long face, four hoofs, and winnies loudly. It's a horse.
Thus endeth the lesson.
One difference between the two: David French provides a link to the (D)Bice article in the Journal-Sentinel, but neither (D)Bice nor the Journal-Sentinel can be bothered to provide a link to (or even mention of) David French's rebuttal of (D)Bice's assertion.
So let me see if I've got this straight. Because you support the wrong candidate for a political office, I target you for unfounded charges of violation of campaign finance laws. I break into your house at dawn while you and your partner are naked in or just out of the shower. I grab a whole bunch of your personal property and carry them away. I attract the attention of all your neighbors, so they know you've been raided by the cops. I tell you you're under a gag order that forbids you to tell anyone but (maybe) your lawyer that any of this has happened or why. But, after awhile I let you go out of your own house to smoke a cigarette, and I'm "unfailingly polite" to you (at least while the tape is rolling). And this means that I've got nothing to complain about?
Good to know. I've got some ideas for alternatives to tar and feathers for the perps.
The tape thay debunks Archer's claims is great news for Cindy Archer!
Garage is always there with the stupid comment. Nice work !
Since the prosecutor/investigator knew the tape was rolling at that point, no wonder he was polite !
He kept his aggressive shouting and battering the door for when the tape wasn't yet rolling.
Garage has no concept but might if a cop and a black guy were involved.
"The tape thay [sic] debunks Archer's claims is great news for Cindy Archer!" GM swoops in with the thread's obligatory and, I must say, disappointingly unimpressive non sequitur.
Suuuuuuuckers.
"We know this is 100% true because Cindy Archer said so!"
(Tape shows it didn't happen)
"Well it must have happened when the tape wasn't rolling!"
You simply cannot match that level of gullibility
Garage,
Are you fond of Chelsea Clinton? Have you learned to swallow like she apparently does (referring to the above post).
That's a double entendre, in case your sophomore HS English teacher hasn't explained it to you.
Swallowing obvious horseshit is for gullible rubes like you, fake psychiatrist. Aren't there any fellow losers in the Isthmus comment section that will communicate with you anymore?
I am waiting for garages next RESET moment when he reverts back to the raids-never-happened modified limited hangout.

The tape clearly omits the enter and clear stage of the raid. You are not arguing in good faith. You never have. None of you are. You are defending the obvious abuse of state power against free citizens.
I am so looking forward to the reckoning that is coming.
Poor garage. Huddled with his fellow "freedom fighters" squatting next to the shortwave hoping against hope to receive some word about continuing operations against the totalitarian state walker has created. Wondering if that last "the cow is in the dell..the cow is in the dell" coded message means that this time, THIS TIME, surely we have him!!
Smoldering take, as usual, Drago. Great stuff.
If I wanted the middle school take on my posting, I would have asked for it.
Btw garage, aren't you supposed to be in Minnesota by now?
Oh, let me guess. That series of expressed desires by you resulted in precisely the expected degree of proactive action by you as we've come to expect.
Drago, It must be humbling to suck on so many levels.
LOL
If you are trying to appear as dumb as a box of rocks as a form of intellectual rope-a-dope, well the first part of that strategy is certainly going gangbusters!
Btw, hows that I-wanna-do-IT-work-for-the-castro-brothers working out for you?
Btw garage, we never got clarity around whether or not you changed your opinion that it was those horrible folks at Breitbart that hacked poor anthony weiners accounts.
Any thoughts on your previously passionately articulated position?
I bring it up because someone in this thread mentioned gullibility and swallowing horses**t in the same sentence.
Garage, did you need some assistance researching employment opportunities in Minnesota? I am sure there is a government run program for you that would help.
I would normally recommend private sector search firms, but those guys usually require their candidates to possess actual skills.
Nice demonstration, garage.
"It's fun calling the other side rank partisans. You can do it too'"
Mark is a rank partisan.
It's nice to see that Garage is out of the rubber room and straight jacket again. But I think his meds need to be adjusted a tad.
Take hope Garage...if Walker becomes president, he won't be the governor anymore!
The "garage mahal" defense, in which "garage mahal" thinks the raids on private homes, based on constitutionally unsound legal theories (but not law), are reasonable and show his preferred party in a good light...
The raid was an unconstitutional use of state power in violation of numerous articulated and fundamental rights. Anything stated that does not start with that truth is partisan gibberish.
The resident circus geek shows up to foam at the mouth and chew the carpet.
People are going to go to jail, garage. Just not the people you want to go to jail. Another fail for fascism.
It's comments like these that show why Garage failed academically and his wife left him. I do feel bad for that daughter of his, between the inferior genetics and awful parents, she really has no chance in life.
I just showed up for the expected beatdown of GM and his ilk. I was not disappointed.
