I would like to think #1 is the answer.

" CBS is just that Lazy: It wouldn't be anything new. They screwed up here, or at least misrepresented."

Or they are just that blinded with ambition for their Party.

Would you also like to believe the moon landing was fabricated on a Hollywood soundstage?

Or that the Mossad carried out the 9/11 attacks?

I smell a 'Rat. And I bet See BS knows just who the rat is. Typical of how the left operates. They think we're stupid.

Not lazy. Desperate.

WashPost online has a story on the forgery. They got their own experts, who reached the same conclusions we all did. NyTimes online last I checked has demoted the story off the front page but hasn't yet run the forgery story. The WashPost story forces their hand, but probably too late to make tomorrow's print edition. That means the NYPost can eat their lunch in the morning. So sweet.

How about Terry McAuliffe? He's sleazy enough and incompetent enough.

This was going to be a late October surprise. They were going to release these forged documents on the weekend before the election, In this manner the Republicans wouldn't have time to respond. However, Kerry's numbers were so low, they panicked and release earlier. My bet is these forgeries are from a Kerry operative.

I really doubt it is a "name" in either party. More likely somebody fairly far down on the left wing totem pole a little too desperate for a Kerry win.

I say CBS allowed themselves to be used and didn't see it coming due to their hatred of the the right in general and Bush in particular.

But why create a forgery (and let's assume that's what they are) if it's going to be such a bad one.

The answer to this is why the world's stupidest crooks video and stupid crook true stories are so popular.

Most people who try to do dishonest things, don't really understand what they are doing.

The CIA when it diseminates "mis-information" goes to great length to make sure no details are left uncovered. To do that they have a lot of very smart people examine every detail and discuss this. For a common criminal activity like a forgery or fake story, getting this many people involved would ultimate lead to security (newspaper) leaks and devistating negative results.

This is why the person who did this forgery worked on it alone or only with one or two others and that wasn't enough smart people to spot all the details.

Yes, I would. Take a look at this photo NASA doesn't want you to see:

The boys apparently got carried away after a long day of filming the "moon" landing.

Who hired Craig Livingstone?

If Karl Rove is that smart and tricky, I'm sure glad he's on our side.

[dila813]

The most common rumor I am hearing is that these were found by the Kerry Camp and passed to Kerry and then to CBS.

This means that the Kerry Camp were the ones that are the source of these documents. No wonder they don't want to reveal the source.

This is a triple black eye. CBS.....Kerry......DNC Bamm Bamm Bamm and finally, here comes Hannity with a sucker punch.

Yup.

What did Dan Rather know and when did he know it?
