Guess I've lost it...I mean...I am excited and kind of thrilled that FINALLY a truth has outed that brings to light the lengths the mainstream media will go to push for Kerry or against Bush (or both).

What angers me is the bottom line...if a dead veteran were used to promote this, how dispicable and crude an action. And because it was meant to FALSELY DISCREDIT our President (or any President), I get outraged all over again.<p.Maybe I need to slap myself silly? LOL! Don't answer! hehe

[Rocko]

On the bright side Dan, now you can work FULL TIME for Kerry!

He's doing that now.

I would think the CBS shareholders just MIGHT have something to say about this!!

[Gator113]

I love it..."RatherGate" just kicked a cow-pie on a hot day. That poor boy ain't never going to get that stuff off of his boot!

Quote: "The FCC should censure CBS news for not reporting factual data... "

I have to disagree. For the FCC to take any action at this time would be seen (and spun) by some as being politically motivated. If you want to send a message to CBS News, just find something else to watch; if/when enough people do that, economic pressures Will hit the former Tiffany Network much harder than the FCC could. (I can't think of anything I watch on CBS these days, except occasionally Letterman; I gave up on both the CBS Evening News and the network's news magazines a few years ago.)

Through my mother, I used retired military "pull" to get my orders changed. Personnel wanted to send me to Ft. Leonard Wood, MO. I wanted to go to Viet Nam. One phone call was all it took, which is generally the case when the call comes from a 4 star. Of course, the Major in charge of assigning 2nd Lieutants was really pissed at me, but that's the way it goes.

According to my wife, one of the major reasons she married me was that she has never, to this day, met anybody who used "pull" to get to GO to Viet Nam.

This just keeps getting more and more interesting.

The old media just has no comprehension of the "new media" and what it is capable of, and it will be their downfall.

I think in order to silence danny blather we should start to target the advertisers on CBS.

How could they get so much wrong in a forgery?

Incredible. Marked for later.

I'll play the DUer here so we can cover all the bases.. Is it possible Staudt could have influenced Hodges after he retired? Favor for an old pal?

It's possible. I believe that all the evidence of a forgery put forth here does have a possible explination. From a special order typewriter to a special order print ball to a Ltc. forgetting the proper abbreviation for a 1Lt. It's possible that a secretary signed the odd signature, the same Ltc. using several non-military abbreviations and on and on.

At some point you surpass the level of improbability of the theory of evolution.

Another FReeper created his own forgery that looked just as good did it in no time at all.

As for a retired General coming back to his unit a year later to use his influence for a political favor. There would have to be strong ties to the bush family for that to happen. (or pictures)

I like it. The Piltdown Memo!

[TexasCowboy]

"What the hell Dan, you were a Marine,"

Dan is the only Marine I've ever known about whom I was comfortable with the past tense.

[PLMerite]

"Oh man, that's awesome. This is going to down in history alongside Piltdown Man."

More like the Hitler Diaries, which for those who weren't around to follow it in the 1980s were the supposed discovery of Adolf Hitler's pre-war diaries where he praised Neville Chamberlain's peacemaking efforts. The Diaries were in fact East German/Soviet forgeries intended to influence European public opinion against the United States.
