Darn!

I was traveling all day yesterday and missed everything.

I was getting breakfast in the hotel this morning and Fox News was on, and I herd about it then. My first thought was "Had to be Free Republic".

Seems I was correct!

I'm proud to be a part of this group.

I had some typos in that version plus I needed to mention tankerkc and freerepublic, so here's the latest revision:

Listen my children to what’s being said,
about post 47 on Howlin’s thread.
Where Buckhead had noticed and Buckhead alone,
strange things in the memos 60 Minutes had shown.

The font and the spacing you just couldn’t do,
on any typewriter in ‘72.
The centering, apostrophes and superscripts too,
were also some things that you just couldn’t do.

As they and other freepers on freerepublic.com,
discussed the consequences of this bomb.
In the midst of this posting, it was too long,
til tankerkc found the format was wrong.

The memos are real, CBS still insist,
their expert had checked them and nothing he missed.
On their authenticity, his reputation he’ll stake,
but a dozen other experts think the memos are fake.

It could have been done if he changed the ball,
to make the superscript high and small.
With news like this it’s certainly a given,
CBS needs to register as a 527.

even later revision:

about post 47 on Howlin’s thread.

strange things in the memos 60 Minutes had shown.

On their authenticity, his reputation he’ll stake,
but a dozen other experts think the memos are fake.

It could have been done if he changed the ball,
to make the superscript high and small.
In the midst of a memo, now who would do that,
me thinks their arguments are somewhat flat.

The more they argue, the clearer it gets,
they were trying to counter, the swift boat vets.
With news like this it’s certainly a given,
CBS needs to register as a 527.

Hey Buckhead, I have been following this story for three days and am continually reminded of " What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive". Good on you, and if you start having any unusual pains, it is just good old " Dan" sticking pins in a doll..Thanks a bunch for not letting the media get away with their usual, producing the news, instead of reporting the news.
