DRUDGE SIREN:

WASH POST: Documents allegedly written by deceased officer that raised questions about Bush's service with Texas National Guard bore markings showing they had been faxed to CBS News from a Kinko's copy shop in Abilene, Texas... Developing...

"Why wouldn't they just admit they were fooled if this guy is their "unimpeachable source." They'd have nothing to lose."

Because a five-minute Google search (or a quick trip to Free Republic) would reveal that their "unimpeachable source" is a man with a history of mental problems and a long-time purveyor of paranoid anti-Bush conspiracy theories.

They had Kinko's in 1972? LOL

ROFL too funny! Yeah, but it was Greyhound Kinkos back then, not Fedex!

" I had been 'loaned' from the senior staff and state planning officer of the Texas National Guard to the Department of the Army for a series of these special projects after angering George W. Bush by refusing to falsify readiness information and reports... "

Story of purged Bush files has been around the block

Answer is yes they do. Second answer is I don't know how long they keep it. The one I worked about about 6 years ago had a continuous loop that recyled every week or 10 days.

I don't know if that setup is used everywhere or not, or if it has been changed since then, say due to 911 or technology improvements.

Now, Bill may be a complete moron but he locates a old, used typewriter and starts typing up a forged document. He is probably a piss poor typist and can not even get the paper in the carriage straight. Well, he probably spends endless hours and days trying to make a decent forged document that does not look like a 13 year old's attempt to murder a piece of paper.

The irony being that if he'd given Rather et al. a horrible piece of [bleep] that looks like a 13-year-old's attempt to murder a piece of paper, it probably would have been more credible than the documents they in fact produced.

Sasquatch are common in Texas. But you seldom see one with such an advanced case of mange.

Chaplain:
True statements. Sometimes the most promising officers are also the most frustrating! My rule of thumb is honest mistakes in training are okay, provided you learn from them, don't get a soldier hurt, or break government equipment thru negligence... If they are bright, aggressive and innovative, they ARE going to make you mad sometimes! However, you have to look at the balance sheet of their actions come OER time.

Tsix, it is good to hear from you. I trust you are safe. I just returned from a prayer vigil for our troops. Excellent event, so KNOW America prays for you and yours.

Your response is just as I had learned...and from that it is exceedingly fair to assume that EVEN IF LTC Killian had had a bad day with Lt Bush, that that day cannot be taken out of the overall context -- and the overall context is a REAL, AUTHENTIC document (OER) in which Lt Bush receives excellent ratings.
