This is really getting good. Ha-ha-ha!
If I'm not mistaken, it was box 34567... "That's the combination on my luggage!" -- Obscure SpaceBalls reference. :)
P. O. Box 234567 HangRather, Texas
PO Box 34567
I tried to read everything here yesterday. Did anyone catch this on FR? Pretty easy to overlook, but it does make the likelihood these are fake go up by logrithmic proportions..
Dan Rather: "If the PO Box was 12345, I would have questioned it!"
To me, this is a stronger indication of a forgery than the whole proportional type business.
"Multiple inbounds, all points of the compass...VAMPIRE VAMPIRE VAMPIRE!"
Too sweet. This is getting SOOOOOOO fun.
I pinged you guys to this on the Rush thread!!
Awesome catch!
I asked this question earlier today and was directed to the thread from yesterday. The thread had several hundred posts so I didn't go through all of them. I'm glad this is being questioned. It looked unusual to me and seems to be something that could easily be verfied.
my new theory: these are faked so badly that they were originally an DNC internal parody/joke that someone took the wrong way and grabbed onto it as a "find".
Honestly, it looks like this was done with no research, in about ten minutes. The docs passed through the Kerry Kampaign and through CBS over SIX WEEKS and NONE of them noticed a thing.
I'm not sure the Left could win this election if they really tried.
Somebody should ask DAN RATHER, IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE...........................
In fact, the letterhead must include the actual 'physical address' of the unit.
Hello fox?:
Go to the smithsonian and find the military curator and see if they have military typwriters from the era!
Is there a former quartermaster who would know what typewriters the military used in that era?
This is SO easy to investigate!
someone said yesterday that they saw this same address on docs from Bush to the ANG. Not sure if it was true, but it was allegedly checked out and found to be correct.
Great - the Pentagon is now involved...someone needs to be behind bars for forging FedGov documents!
I looked at this yesterday:

It seems that the P.O. Box is real, though I agree it seems more than weird that it is the "address of record" on the document.
The lunatic liar who created these false documents is a Dead Man Walking. His fellow libs will turn on him like jackals turn on a wounded Jackal in their pack.
He/she/it should turn itself into the police and beg for police protection.
Edwards just challenged Bush to comment on this hoax. I guess he should be careful what he asks for because Bush can say that the Pentagan also believes Dan Rather mislead the voting public for personal ideological purposes.
