Document Experts Say They Warned CBS of Doubts
Washington Post ^ | 09/15/2004 | Howard Kurtz

A document expert retained by CBS News for the disputed "60 Minutes" story on President Bush's National Guard record said yesterday that she had warned the program that the memos involved "had problems" and that she had questioned "whether they were produced on a computer." Asked whether CBS had taken her concerns seriously, Linda James, a forensic document examiner in Texas, told The Washington Post: "Evidently not." Tuesday's Question: Confirmation hearings get underway today for Rep. Porter J. Goss (R-Fla.), a former CIA

Finding and exposing the forger would be a sweet October surprise, wouldn't it?

I hope somebody on our side has tasked a real investigative pro, several of them in fact, to that effort.

Another nail in the coffin. The circumstantial evidence is at critical mass. The smoking gun is the testimony of Killian's secretary, who doesn't even like Bush and voted against him and will again. But she verifies that she and the Texas Air Guard had no typewriter that could have produced the forged documents.

Man, Aliens is such a good movie. That along with Full Metal Jacket are the least likely yet productive recruitment movies for the Marines.

KERRY GAVE TESTIMONY BASED UPON FALSE INFORMATION

September 6, 2004 -- **BREAKING** In Yesterday's Lies: Steve Pitkin and the Winter Soldiers, Scott Swett tells the story of a former VVAW member and participant in the Winter Soldier Investigation who states that John Kerry and others pressured him to give false testimony about American atrocities in Vietnam. After more than 33 years, Pitkin is the first Winter Soldier "witness" to file a legal affadavit regarding that event...

My name is Steve Pitkin, age 20, from Baltimore. I served with the 9th Division from May of '69 until I was airvaced in July of '69. I'll testify about the beating of civilians and enemy personnel, destruction of villages, indiscriminate use of artillery, the general racism and the attitude of the American GI toward the Vietnamese. I will also talk about some of the problems of the GIs toward one another and the hassle with officers.

Sounds like Dano's dog probably avoids him at this point. This story just keeps getting better and better! If the politicians will leave this alone, Rather's house of cards will collapse from its own weight.

So CBS, if they relly wanted to know the truth, could have asked Killian's widow if he typed his own memos (she says--NO) and then asked the secretary if those memos were ones she typed (she says---NO). Case closed--you don't need authenticity experts after that. Given this plus the fact that the 60 minutes II producer told Killian's son and the AN guard officer that she did not want to talk to certain key players in the story because they were pro-Bush--and you have a story that was deliberately NOT researched by CBS. They did not want the truth and were diligent to swerving into it.
