BushGuardaugust1 memo - a FAKE
CBS, self | 9/9/04 | Carl Donath

Posted on 09/09/2004 2:09:48 PM PDT by ctdonath2

Proof the CBS document BushGuardaugust1.pdf is a FAKE:

Original text, slightly adjusted for rectangular fit:

Same text, screen capture of document written in MS Word 2002 with no effort to match original aside from document width:

Overlapping images, with original as B/W negative:

Aside from slight warping presumably due to distortion introduced by a low-quality photocopier, the two texts line up exactly. The "30+ year old proof" against Bush is a fraud.

This was done with minimal effort. The "fake" I wrote up took practically no effort: start MS Word 2002, enter text, set document width. Correcting for distortions in the CBS-provided "proof" took a few minutes more.

Groovy,
I would never have thought of overlapping the two.

You are AWESOME. Game, Set & Match.

Mr. Rather, you are finally right about unemployment: YOU ARE FIRED!

Yep, there is no way a typewriter spacing would match the complex spacing utilized by today's wordprocessor. This has to be a fake.

You should send this to drudge. He might put it up on his site. You are quite clever.

Good job!
