I was thinking more about this forged document story and trying to come up with a theory of my own. Some have said that Karl Rove set them up, which may be plausible, but one name no one has mentioned, is George Soros. If there's anyone who hates President Bush with a passion and wants to cause harm in the process, it would be Soros.
Sorros has enought dough to do a better job.
... Karl Rove? Naaa... He doesn't need to make up crap when he's 11 points ahead. He's not that stupid... plus, he's a tad bit more ethical than Dan Blather's 60 Minutes producers.
I don't think that is plausible in the least and I'll tell you why. It means that Bush/Rove put out a very damaging hit piece on themselves, which was deliberately forged, in the hopes that CBS would not spot the forgery and publish it. The Kerry campaign and the DNC saw it before CBS is so they had to hope they wouldn't spot it either.
But what if CBS had spotted it, realized that Rove was scamming them, and decided to recreate them in a believable form? What could Rove do then? He couldn't say "Here is what I gave CBS. See, it's an obvious fake and CBS must have copied it with an old typewriter. It was our dirty trick and they're making it theirs."
It's a great plot for a Saturday morning cartoon but no one would set a trap with bad news about themselves. Not when they've weathered this bogus charge time and time again.
