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.
You are right, I think. The Dallas CBS producer is just a middle man -- the key question is where did the documents originate?
LOL! Are you sure about that?
Anyone who uses Hackworth as a source of anything needs their head examined
I agree with you completely!
Oh man, I'm torn. Does this call for popcorn and beer, or champagne and strawberries?? What would Martha do?;)
Meddafer. Is it somethin that's used when you go huntin with an ooushee?
Well I won't be watching the CBS Evening News, so I'll have to count on freepers.
Send them this. It ain't just the "th".
1-- proportional spacing not generally available
2 -- superscripts not generally available
3 - small "th" single element not generally available
4 - Smart quotes. Curved apostrophes and quotation marks were not available
5-The blurriness of the copy indicates it was recopied dozens of times, tactic of forgers
6--Signature block. Typical authentic military signature block has name, then rank, then on the next line the person's position. This just has rank beneath the name.
7--Margins. These look like a computer's unjustified default, not the way a person typing would have done it.
8 -- Date usually with three letters, or in form as 110471.
9 - words run over consistent with word processor
10 - may be a Times Roman or similar font not generally available then (per Haas Atlas)
11 - signature looks faked
12 - no errors and whiteout
13 - no letterhead
14 - exact match for Microsoft Word Processor
15 - Paper size problem, Air Force and Guard did not use 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper until the 1980s.
16 - Overlap analysis is an exact match
17 - absence of hyphens to split words between lines, c/w 1970's typewriter.
18 - 5000 Longmont #8 in Houston Tx. does not exist
19 - Box 34567 is suspicious, at best. The current use of the po box 34567 is Ashland Chemical Company, A Division of Ashland Oil, Incorporated P. O. Box 34567 Houston
20 - it would have been nearly impossible to center a letterhead with proportional spacing without a computer.
21 - Bush's grade would "normally" be abbreviated "1Lt" not "1st Lt"
22 - Subject matter bizarre
23 - Air Force did not use street addresses for their offices, rather HQ AFLC/CC, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433.
24 - kerning was not available
25 - In the August 18, 1973 memo, Jerry Killian purportedly writes: "Staudt has obviously pressured Hodges more about Bush. I'm having trouble running interference and doing my job." but General Staudt, who thought very highly of Lt. Bush, retired in 1972.
26 - Language not generally used by military
27 - Not signed or initialed
28 - Not in any format that a military person would use, e.g. orders not given by Memo.

I am listening to Hannity and I didn't hear anything like this. What was his exact comment?
I'm supprised he didn't use WORD ART.
Isn't THAT interesting!
She'd Stew on it for a while.
It's a Catch-22 situation.
If the documents are genuine, then the source is covered by First Amendment privilege.
If the documents are fraudulent, then there is a federal felony involved, and CBS becomes an accessory.
The only way to avoid a legal nightmare is to insist that the documents are genuine in the hope that nobody can prove conclusively otherwise.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my FoxFan list. *Warning: This can be a high-volume ping list at times.
A nice bottle of Chianti would be appropriate. And some cheese.
Hackworth IS unimpeachable. Under the Constitution, only the President, Vice President, and civil officers of the United States can be impeached, and Hack ain't any of those. (c8
