Not to come across as uninformed, but did not one of our own Freepers prove Rather’s Burkett docs were forgeries based on online images alone? That is my understanding, anyway. Am I missing the point, and/or comparing apples to oranges?

The same has happened in disproving Obama; the difference is that no politicians are going to defend Dan Rather and CBS for passing off a forgery, but they will defend one of their own ... and evidently go to great lengths to do so, even across party lines.

Well that’s certainly how it looks to me. Rather was an old white has-been, and Obama is a PC/MSM/AA ‘black’ sacred cow. Nobody on either side dares to touch him or his weirdly inauthentic docs.

Well Obama’s polls are on the way down. We’ll see what the landscape looks like when gas hits five bucks at the pump. Even sacred cows have a shelf-life.
