I think the first order of business is who actually wrote those document and who gave them to CBS. I still can't come up with a rational reason for the supposed author to write himself "CYA" memos and not send them to anyone else.

He also didn't sign the ""CYA"" memo legibly if at all. How the hell could it cover his ass if nobody knew who wrote the damned thing? This is just more leftist lies and bullshit like the 'boos' crap from AP. Typical liberal desperation.

The CYA memos are of the "type" prevalent in the Government beginning in the late 70's when documenting a file for evaluation. There was a time frame for retention, they went into the employee's folder (not your personal folder), along with all other documentation, including positive Myranda. If not used, the memoranda were destroyed. In addition, the memoranda had to be "shared" with the employee, and so documented.

Based on Bush's evaluation, around the middle of the pack, there was no need for such documentation. Please note, I was a manager in the Government, not the military. However, the Gov functions more or less the same, wherever.
