Given the seeming amateurish nature of the forgeries, it appears the real purpose of the forgeries was indeed to be uncovered - and to embarrass Kerry.

My money is on the Clintons and a couple of their sleazy private detective contacts as the culprits. The documents surface just as the Clinton cronies get involved in key positions in the Kerry campaign. The old Trojan horse operation. When the forgeries are quickly discovered, it makes Kerry look bad - potentially torpedoing his campaign. This might just clear Kerry out of the way for Hillary to get the nomination in 2008.

Interesting that Clinton told Kerry to stay off of Vietnam while in the hospital. Then, coincidentally, his cronies take over Kerry campaign AND then the Boston Globe and Dan Rather coincidentally resurrect a defunct story? My money is on the Clintons.

Or perhaps a long time kerry associate, one who might have had experience with military documents, understanding the weird and circular and off medal citations,etc that have appeared backing the ga zillion medals our war hero kerry fought so valiently to attain < /sarcasm >. One wonders if the same tech goofs in the CBS memos could be applied to kerry's voluminous records. (That ones we actually have that is, since MOST have not been released to the public.) Harder to find than his book, The New Soldier, which he has also tried to keep hidden.

This is case where the source, IF NOT A PRESS PERSON, is not covered by the source protection thing, at least I think this is so.<

CBS tried to crush President Bush, and used a dead Colonel to do it, JUST ATROCIOUS! It is time for them to name names. If they don't, the FCC should step in.

This was harmful to the American people, misleading them in their process of determining who is fit to lead our nation.
