Great catch Paul.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

So, Dr. Hailey created a forgery to prove that a forgery wasn't a forgery. It must be great to be a democrat and have to do crap like that.

God I love this FReeping place. Where would we be without it?

[bahblahbah]

Gotta love this neo-commie demorat party. I wish the moderate ones like lieberman and bayh would leave to show them how misguided they are.

[mcg1969]

Actually, the latest thinking is this is NOT a forgery. The professor is quite clear about how he constructed his version of the memo.

His methods are fatally flawed but he is not misrepresenting himself.

[Tempest]

We should send this info out to every other news agency with the EXCEPTION of the Boston Globe and CBS in advance of their stories. =^D

Now that would be fun.

Look at my user profile for a list of media outlets.

YESTERDAY, the leftie site Daily Kos was arguing TANG typewriter forensic study: they're not forged about this 'research'.

Hmmm. Wasn't Kos the fellow who said 'screw 'em' about the contractors burned alive and torn limb from limb earlier in the year?

[Smogger]

Really? Cause I skimmed his article and couldn't figure out what typewriter I needed to by to do it.

[xtinct]

Libs persistently make donkeys out of themselves. Are they masochists or simply insane?

[JOE6PAK]

AMAZING!

The rATS have to work so hard to prove they aint rATS and we just dust 'em and bust 'em!

[Kylie_04]

Simply AMAZING!!!!

[traviskicks]

lol you should have let them run with it so they would get B-U-S-T-E-D like CBS. The Globe is possibly the most liberal paper in the country, maybe even to the left of the LA Times and NY times.

[alcuin]

Wonderland by Night.

[Grig]

The top line is from the CBS pdf file, the bottom one is from Hailey's attempt to duplicate the memo using a typewritter. Notice how obvious it is that the th is photoshoped on.

Remember what you've posted, because this coming Monday signals the quarterly fundraiser to keep FR "on the air"....best investment any of us can make.

[doug from upland]

The lefties are going to be challenged on their lies every time. It is their hell on earth.

[TomGuy]

As one expert said about signatures, a faxed signature may be shown as a forgery, but it cannot be used to show a signature is factual.

The same can be said about the 'typewriter'. A faxed document may disprove a certain typewriter, but only the original documents show prove a certain typewriter. 'Closies' don't count in forging documents.

[Howlin]

More good stuff here.

[mcshot]

I get warm fuzzies reading how this well oiled truth machine chews up bogus work.
