I want to get this on the record NOW:

To: Howlin
WE NEED TO SEE THOSE MEMOS AGAIN!

They are not in the style that we used when I came in to the USAF. They looked like the style and format we started using about 12 years ago (1992). Our signature blocks were left justified, now they are rigth of center...like the ones they just showed.

Can we get a copy of those memos?

THE "New" CBS BUSH DOCUMENTS: Let's do some investigating

I'm making sure WE get credit this time!

Not to burst everyone's bubble, but we need to figure out if the "graphic" from 60 Minutes are the actual documents. In lieu of photographing the real documents, they may have had the real documents examined, and just retyped the text in Word in order to quickly create the type of graphic they wanted for their production values.

This kind of document "switching" happens all the time and is considered acceptable in the journalism industry to show the actual text in whatever format you want.

We need to make sure this is not the case here before our credibility takes a hit.

Call CBS News comment line and make a complaint. It is a line that at the end of a long message says that all comments on news shows can be left "after the beep". So FREEP the hell out of it!

I thought the White House acknowledged the docs were real but explained them as being largely irrelevant.

Is that not the case?

Rush is talking about it.

But, so what. The Demoncrats know that the non-story was put on the air by their front man Dan Blather, and thats what they wanted.

Bush should sue 60 minutes, NBC and Via com it they produce the program. I will take the case but Bush might be able to get a better lawyer.

This great. The libs are going crazy. They can't stop the bush machine from rolling over Kerry and the other Dem's.

Would that not be considered as a forgery of sorts anyway? II think most Americans would.

The PDFs I have seen include the signature. If CBS copies the docs, they wouldn't have ink signatures.
