Looking at post 25 in the other thread, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1210987/posts ...
If Geo. W. Bush typed that letter in the early '70s he did it in an insurance company hq or a bank main branch. No way would you find a fancy IBM machine in a NG office in those days. Folks just need to dig out other correspondence from that time and place and compare. I'm betting paperwork would be pounded out on a manual in '73.
Plus, the request and the response are aligned very prettily and look to have been typed on the same machine at the same time. No plausible scenario for that. It's not like a fellow could walk in and dictate to his commander's typist...But, dang, you would think people would forge this sort of junk more cleverly! Is it that hard to find a couple of old typewriters?
The 18 August Memo
187th has a superscripted 'th'
Let me say that again ... somehow in 1972 the T-ANG had sophisticated WP equipment that allowed a simple memo to file to contain a SUPERSCRIPTED 'th' .... details people .. details ...
Bald-faced lying, cheating, and subterfuge are now the centerpieces of their desperate "Elect Kerry" campaign...
The Democrats have calculated by the time the maniacal onslaught of bogus stories about Dubya sponsored by CBSNBCABCCNN are investigated or proven untrue, it will be after the election.
In the meantime all they are hoping for is ANY floated fabrication about Bush to gain traction to distract from Kerry's Hindenburg-like record.
Regardless of any documents that the left is using, Rush just went over the points that Bush earned each year of guard duty and proved that he earned more than enough points each year to satisfy the requirements.
Beyond the proportional spacing, there's also the use of tiny superscripts in memos 1 & 4.
Bump for bookmark.
I haven't seen it mentioned, but when I was in the service, the format for any date was ALWAYS "month, day, year", period. I've had several people remark that I must have been in the military because I still use the "month, day, year" date format.
JOHN KERRY'S "TWO AMERICAS":
Those who eat at Wendy's vs. those who only go to Wendy's for photo ops
Several questions
May 4 memo
. Part of the address (5000 Longmont #8) is blacked out but is still clearly readable under the blackout
normally if you blackout something on and original then copy it not going to survive if at all past the first copy
makes me think that the pdf scan was done on a copy that just freshly (still wet and transparent) blacked out the first time for that scan
.just strikes me as odd for this old of address
May 19 memo
.Refers to "Bush, 1st Lt Bush"
. Is this supposes to imply that this person talk to W and also his father? Why the double reference then in the body it just Bush no 1Lt Bush the whole tone is flippant and somewhat unprofessional and just unclear
Aug1 memo
. It all in past tense as of this date I ordered not I order (and what date? The Aug1 of the memo?) if you give and order to suspended someone from flight status would that be in writing and would that be it own documentation ...why write a memo the same day of that order, documenting you own order (and in past tense ) is this the norm?
Thing that just seem odd to me
