NEW YORK -- Yesterday, Goliath CBS News was delivered a smooth stone to the forehead by a FReeper.

A poster in the FreeRepublic.com conservative news forum mentioned something peculiar about two documents CBS’s 60 Minutes claimed on September 8 were generated by now deceased Lieutenant Colonel Jerry B. Killian regarding an allegedly National Guard-evading George W. Bush in 1973.

Within minutes following the broadcast, FReeper "TankerKC" wrote this to FReeper "Howlin'":

WE NEED TO SEE THOSE MEMOS AGAIN!

{snip]

Since then, news of the potential forgery glitch spread like wildfire from blog to blog and into the mainstream press - especially that of CBS competitors ABC and NBC.

Jim, I love your dedication to The Cause, I love this site, I love America, I love freedom of speech and *of the press*.

Howlin, thanks for reposting the graphic. I laugh every time I see it. Can't remember which thread I first saw it on (so many threads, such a poor mental filing space retrieval system!) but I laughed very roundly when I first saw it and I laugh every time I see it. It's, IMO, a FReeper classic. And thanks, Howlin, for your dedication and quick mind to keep on top of things -- for posting the LIVE thread ... for being inquisitive, ever inquisitive, appropriately suspicious, growing in discernment. You're a treasure.

Actually, there are genuine Bush docs from the TANG on letterhead that shows that same POB.

Consider this an abortion of the non-viable Kerry Administration. Now is not the time for another disaster along the likes of the Carter years.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I'm rolling on the floor laughing.

BUMP!!!

[Howlin]

I hope you enjoy this!

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Immensely Howlen, immensely!

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Howlin.....laughing so hard I can't spell.

[blackie]

I remember the Carter years, very well!

We have to reelect GWB!

Thanks, Jim, for this wonderful All-American website!
