Hannity just said a story will be filed later today that from sources inside CBS that the source of the documents is also the one who provided the Abu Grihab prison photos.

I think we should always remember that the point here is that the documents are fake and were not produced in 1972.

Even if CBS can come up with some way, however implausible, that a person could have made the documents in 1972, that doesn't mean the documents are real. How about if Dan Rather had a handwritten document full of bogus charges that he claimed was written back in 1972? They did have pencils back then. Would we throw up our hands and give up, just because his document could have been produced that long ago? Of course not!

The bottom line question is this: are the documents legitimate? And the answer is, of course: they are not.

I think you're right - supposedly these were "never before seen" documents - but you can see they were being "shopped" on the internet on New Year's Eve...

The appearance of PO Box 34567 in a January document is "nothing," because that address appeared on a document released by Bush before January of this year.

True, but it may indicate that this fellow saw the same documents CBS brought out.

"This was deliberate, and it was clumsy enough to get caught immediately."

It wasn't caught by CBS.

Can't you just stay in one night of the week?

I saw the DU "th" post. There is no doubt in my mind that CBS got their evidence from that DU post on the superscript "th." This was one item that some experts were wrong on, but the dozen or so other things proving it was typed using Microsoft Word are irrelevant for CBS, because they now have one error "vindicating" them, lol. Pathetic.

Anybody remember "Mark McKinnon" and the Bush debate practice video tape that "somehow" got into the Gore campaign's hands in 2000?

Just a thought....

Pentagon was referring to the P.O. Box as letterhead.
It was in reference to one of the "FORGED FOUR" from CBS.
Not in reference to standard forms.

There are two polls on the subject on CNN.
http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/lou.dobbs.tonight/

Should Dan Rather and CBS News reveal the sources of the Bush memos?

Yes 35% 282 votes

No 65% 519 votes

Total: 801 votes

AND
http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/wolf.blitzer.reports/

Do you think the recently released memos on President Bush's National Guard service are authentic?

Yes 52% 65829 votes

No 48% 61920 votes

Total: 127749 votes

If you are so inclined, CNN needs a little FR power!

But there is NO escaping the ramifications of CBS's action and reaction. They are in the tank for the DEM party.

Absolutely true, but it would be nice to unmask both CBS & the DNC (or whoever ...)!

I don't know if this has been mentioned .. no time to go through the entire thread, but this is the latest from Dr. Bouffard the forensics expert. From http://www.indcjournal.com/archives/000838.php

So could an IBM Composer kern? Dr. Bouffard can't say with 100% accuracy, but he does not think it's possible that early machines had the computer memory necessary to complete such a function. The only possible way to find out would be to obtain an IBM Composer circa 1972. Long story short? I'm just presenting the analysis one expert forensic document examiner that specializes in typefaces, so, ignoring the statements by Killian's family that disavow the documents, ignoring the inconsistencies in tone, format and the active military status of individuals mentioned in the memo, soley based on forensic typographical analysis, it is highly unlikely that the documents are real, and if someone can verify that a 1972 IBM Composer cannot kern (or auto center, for that matter), then it will be completely verified that the documents are frauds. Once again, I am not commenting on the myriad of other angles that question this story, merely providing an in depth summary of Dr. Bouffard's findings. To quote: "Because it takes such a stretch to come up with all of the remote possibilities involved in creating the (CBS) document, it is much more likely that it is a computer generated document. ... I can't imagine the Composer would have enough memory (to kern)."

I helped with that one. Drudge picked it up immediately.

Here is my original thread on the subject

No sweat. It is interesting that the PO Box addy was the one given, I think, for Bush's unit. The forger grabbed that and translated it to letterhead. A perfunctory "fact check" would indicate authenticity, and lead a gullible news agency down the path.

There is no way the DNC and Kerry campaign can escape taint, even if they didn't author the forgery. They handled it. If they had suspicions or doubts, they did nothing to make those known to the public.

I'll be shocked if a "high muckity-muck" was the author, but it'd be a real hoot!
