DRUDGE SIREN:

CBS Guard Documents Traced to Texas Kinko's...

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...

[igoramus987]

Robert Strong, who was one of three people interviewed by "60 minutes," said he was shown copies of the documents by CBS anchor Dan Rather and producer Mary Mapes on Sept. 5, three days before the broadcast. He said at least one of the documents bore a faxed header indicating it had been sent from a Kinko's in Abilene.

I don't think Robert Strong is a fan of Bush. He was the Admin Officer on another base to Killian. He also said

from link
Robert Strong was an administrative officer for the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam years. He knew Jerry Killian, the man credited with writing the documents. And paper work, like these documents, was Strong's specialty. He is standing by his judgment that the documents are real.

"They are compatible with the way business was done at that time," Strong said. "They are compatible with the man I remember Jerry Killian being. I don't see anything in the documents that's discordant with what were the times, the situation or the people involved."

My gut tells me they are setting up Burkett, or he is willing to take the fall, because if the DNC/Kerry campaign is involved, then it is all over for Kerry.

Burkitt was in the Texas Army National Guard. An officer. CBS did admit they received the documents from a "military officer". Also, the memos are written, as that old evil witch Knox stated, in "army" language.

The old secretary they just interviewed did say the things were written in "army" terminology. Was that intentional on her part or just part of her scripted talking points?

Fox News just ran an ad for Kinko's a second ago.

"Print it, pack it, ship it. At Kiko's, our office is your office". Eeerie.......Or a not so subtle can of gasoline on the fire for us in pajamas getting tired. I have the mirror positioned by the computer so I can watch the TV without turning my head from the computer monitor.

Thanks!

"f the documents were faxed from Kinko's by some wacko ex-TANG then they didn't come from the DNC or the Kerry campaign"

Unless, of course, that wacko is a major Kerry campaign fundraiser.

I saw this little blurb earlier and thought it was a JOKE. I see it wasnt. mrs.ketsup will now be locked back in the rubber room. just cant trust her out in public.

[TexasGreg]

The first think Burkett had to do was copy the documents, then copy the copies, then copy those copies, then copies THOSE copies ... etc etc etc etc. about 10 generations to give them the aged look. Then, Fax 'em. What better place to do that than at Kinkos.

Caught him.

[Ole Okie]

Could somebody explain how this proves anything?

It's not the nature of the evidence. It's the seriousness of the charge that makes an investigation imperative.

Kinko's? Didn't they merge with Fedex? Well, never mind. Kitty Kelley will draw any necessary inferences.

Kinkos?

Bwaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[Cboldt]

Sounds very plausible, but why would CBS fax docs from a Kinko's in Abilene? We need to get a date when the fax was sent.

To get an advance copy to the folks at the NYC offices. Maybe to start the pre-ordained authentication process, develop a story line, etc.

You do that TOO?

[Miss Marple]

Robin Rather needs to learn that after a certain age, women do not wear long hair. It gives them the "Trusty the Bloodhound" look.

[Loyalist]

Mrs. Knox is yesterday's news. In fact, she wasn't even really today's news, once Drudge broke the WaPo Kinko fax scoop.

[Petronski]

Two digits apart...definitely the same guy.

[Howlin]

piasa, I will believe anything at this point.

Humorous side-note...

Just noticed that Little Ron Reagan is in Pensacola getting the mother of all Lewinskis from Ivan. ?:-D

[blackdog]

What's with the Freudian background in that Robin Rather pic?
