CNN Now Questioning Authenticity of Bush Documents (Authenticity of Bush Guard memos questioned)

The plot thickens.


One little question here, is it unusual for Rather to personally do this story, or would it be more normal for an underling to do the report? I don't watch CBS news.

I have Rush on but was outside pruning. I came in for a break and hear him talking about the docs but missed the Rather update. Thank you for that.

So Danny boy just KNOWS the story is true because he made a wish upon a star?

I happened to hear the part about Barnes and Rather's daughter.

I also did hear Rush start out by reading the Spectator article before I went outside.

Well, I know the Swift Vets are speaking the truth. And I rely on their demeanor, credibility and documentation. Maybe Rather should try that approach. What a piece of scum he is (as we already knew). The senile old goat.

I am taking up my pruning shears again and will attack the foliage with gusto. Back in a bit.

"Gary Killian, who served in the Guard with his father and retired as a captain in 1991"

O3 after twenty years? Hmmmm, is that normal?

<speculation

I think it would impossible for an active-duty officer in any service to serve for twenty years and only advance to O3. I'd suspect that scenario could only be possible in the Guard or the Reserves.
