Killians secretary pointed out the terminology in the forged document was not consistent with Bushs Air National Guard unit at all, but was consistent with Army National Guard terminology. Bill Burkett was in the

Burkettes February accusation in CNN: "I glanced down at the top of those documents. In ink was the word Bush, George W., 1 Lt. This was a performance report. I was right at the trash can.

I don't get your point. I know the documents are fake. Burkett looks like the natural suspect. What does that have to do with me thinking this isn't helping Bush in his bid for reelection? If you're saying he has ties to Democrats, I'm sure he does. But liberals are slippery. Remember, you need ten times the proof against a liberal that you do against a conservative to prove a negative point. Witness how CBS dismissed any witnesses who were Bush supporters, but couldn't care less that Knox is a Bush-hater.
