A handwriting expert says the two signatures on purported Texas National Guard memos aired by CBS News this week are not those of President Bush's squadron commander, as asserted by "60 Minutes."
Until now, press scrutiny of the memos supposedly written by the late Lt. Col. Jerry B. Killian focused on the finding that the documents were, in the opinion of experts, produced by computers not yet in use in the early 1970s.
Eugene P. Hussey, a certified forensic document examiner in Washington state, said yesterday there is another flaw in the CBS memos. Mr. Hussey studied the known signatures of Col. Killian on Air Force documents, and two signatures on documents dated 1972 and 1973 that aired on "60 Minutes" Wednesday night.
"It is my limited opinion that Killian did not sign those documents," Mr. Hussey told The Washington Times. He said he uses the phrase "limited opinion" because he does not have the original documents. He, like other experts interviewed by the press, relied on copies of originals first obtained by CBS. The White House then distributed copies of the memos in what is said was the interest of full disclosure.

The Times provided Mr. Hussey with copies of the CBS documents, which he dubbed Q-1-3, and records known to have been signed by Col. Killian, (K-1-3).
"It is my opinion based on the examination of the Q-1 through Q-3 and K-1 through K-3, that Jerry B. Killian probably did not sign his name to Q-1 and his initial to Q-3," Mr. Hussey said in a signed letter to The Times. "As to the authenticity of the CBS documents, that is Q-1 through Q-3, [they] appear to be product of a computer, rather than a typewriter."

Doesn't it stink that we have to fight a second Civil War in order to win a World War for our survival?
So be it.
I'm not a real "gun guy", but nothing has given me a smile lately like the FR threads with Freepers exchanging their wish lists on hardware and ordinance after the AWB thang sunsets.
I'm confident about the forestalling of any post November 2 "Civil War" waged by DU poofters.
Let's beat down the Islamist murderers threatening 5000 years of human civilization. You and I will both be resting with God before that happens. But, it'll happen. Because, we're Americans dammit.
Entrecorp, a firm advising companies on government relations and capital acquisitions.
Mr. Barnes was a top Democratic fund-raiser. He attended one of President Bill Clinton's controversial White House 'coffees.' But mostly, he courted Democratic senators in Washington as he built his lobbying business, Entrecorp.
He dates his national debut to a decade ago, when he attended the annual Nantucket, Mass., fund-raiser of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, where he met Mr. Kerry. Now, Mr. Barnes, like Mr. Kerry, has a house on Nantucket, and is a host during the annual event. He also holds frequent fund-raisers at his home in Austin. Among his closest associates is Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota.
He's Kerry's next door neighbor!
Yes!
And a top fundraiser for Kerry.
Let's enjoy the Kerry 120 foot bungee cord off a 100 foot bridge.
A beauty of this is that, even if no action is forthcoming, just seriously talking about it is major!
Didn't CBS threaten to depose the President? Sounds like desperation time.
How much did TerAYsa pay to make it happen?
And if the money trail leads back to MamaT., presumably the Killian family and GW could sue the knickers off her and Botoxboy.

btt
you need to get accurate. the dems and the old media have confused enough people on this law as it is.
Hey - look at me - a victim of the New Orleans public school system and able to out fact check CBS. heh. BTW you can add me to the list that has blocked the enire network on all TV in my house. I'm also happily emailing & talking about this at parties & stuff with less current event oriented friends. Most people get pretty steamed when they hear CBS is making stuff up to smear the president. What is surprising is they are pretty much predisposed to believe Dan Rather would make stuff up. They'll bring up the old Dateline NBC faked crash, or Jayson Blair or some other example. Easy sell.
The worst secretary of state this country has ever had. President Bush could produce OBL at any time, whether it was one or two years ago, six months ago or election eve. There still would be at lease a 20 percent approval spike regardless of when they nail him. The American people aren't as stupid as Albright thinks we are - the timing will mean nothing. We just want him dead or alive.
Thanks to Phil Dragoo for providing the link below.
Go to this link and sit back and watch how the forgery was created by the lunatic lefty who forged this document:

They should be, but your statement implies that there is no political direction in their choice of investigation. I don't think they will touch this, as things currently stand.
BTW at this moment that famous gay American governor Jim McGreevey is now addressing the families at Ground Zero...what chutzbah.
