How can a simple error in validating source documents be a plot?

If it's a simple error, it's not a plot. If it's not a simple error...

As Bill Burkett is the likely source of this information, I've been doing my FREEPing some this morning. Found the following.

From Bill Burkett (August 25, 2004)... Bush lies about his service, smears Kerry’s and seeks exoneration for the Abu Ghraib brass. NOTE: this is a PDF file.

George W. Bush, you may be the president [sic]. But I know that you lied.

I know from your files that we have now reassembled, the fact that you did not fulfill your oath, taken when you were commissioned to "obey the orders of the officers appointed over you". I know that you not only lied to the American people in 1994, but have lied consistently since then. Mr. Bush, not every serviceman except you is incompetent. When you failed to show up as ordered for duty, they simply recorded the truth. And the truth was, they didn't think you were especially important enough to jeopardize their own careers to cover for your absence by fraudulently counting you as present in any piece of documentation when you clearly were not present.

Mr. Bush, in 28 years as an enlisted man, an officer, a commander and a member of the staff team, I never missed a drill that I didn’t make up. But then again, I was never given that opportunity. It was an order.

Interesting. The phase, "...we have now reassembled"? Quotes ardound the phrase "obey the orders of the officers appointed over you". The phrase, again, "ordered for duty". And, yet again, "It was an order".

The article itself is quite revealing about the depth of hatred this Burkett guy feels for Bush. It's really gross.

One thing for sure, is that this pernicious fraud is not the work of Republicans, otherwise, that DNC bootlicker Rather would have snidely outed the republican rascal.

[Pardon the cross post]
 
The analysis: The Reason behind the Forged Memos suggests that the real theme is GWB was a coke head who had to skip out and evade the physical to avoid a drug test.
 
This makes particular sense given Kitty Kelly's sudden appearance to plant the "seed" of this theme.
 
This is an orchestrated campaign that was supposed to be launched from many (supposedly unconnected) directions.
 
Since Dan (Ahab) Rather has decided, "Damn the damage, full steam ahead", watch for "new" information and "new" investigations to start to pop up to support this.
 
It would not surprise me, that Rather will go on air, in late October, with something like: "We have had many indications from unimpeachable sources that the President has had, and perhaps does have, a serious cocaine problem. Do to the seriousness of these allegations it is incumbent of the President to take a drug test immediately. If he does not, this will be proof that he has something to hide"
 
Watch for it.

There is no way it is a "simple" error...any 14 year old(my son, 14, even said it looked fake) could have looked at that document and seen the discrepancies. ...better yet a national TV channel such as CBS and Dan Rather. It's an obvious smear campaign...and the wind changed...it's getting stinky towards the DNC and Kerry, thanks to CBS and Dan Rather!

Let Kerry debate himself, it would be interesting. I would not climb on board to the sinister, blatantly bogus debate schedule and format set up by the RATS.

An error in validating source documents????

The documents are obvious fakes.

The issue is where those fakes came from. Answer that question and you can see why people speak of a plot.

"How can a simple error in validating source documents be a plot?"

The plot is their (the liberal media's) failure to dig deeper when they knew, or were afraid, that they'd discover that their story would fall apart. They do this all the time. They grab onto every negative rumor about Bush as if it were gold, and smugly ignore almost everything bad about THEIR candidate, Mrs. Kerry.

Who is the CBS moderator for the debates? I really think the White House needs to protest their involvement now that it is crystal clear to everyone that CBS will do anything to influence the election. Seriously....

Regarding the debates... the WH has already said it only wants to have 2 of the 3 proposed debates. It kinda sounds like a ready-made opportunity to shut CBS out. WooHoo!

Besides what has already been given as an answer, it is not just a simple matter of not validating the documents. There is also the fact that CBS is hiding the identity of the forgerers. A felony has been committed and CBS is a willing participant at least after the fact, if not in fact.

If CBS is not part of a conspiracy to foist forged documents on the American public, they should reveal their sources so we can get to the bottom of this scandal!

White House Says CBS Documents Part of DNC Plot

Wow, this is really aggressive for this campaign to use such direct language. I am shocked, and happy to see them be so concise. I think this story obviously was created by the DNC itself, and Rather's failure to disclose his source, if it were to have been credable, points to that.

In all of American history, I can't think of a comparable instance where a political party teamed up with a pliant, if not complicit, media to prepetrate a fraud of this magnitude to sway an election.

This will have aftershocks for years to come in both the news industry and for the Democratic Party.

White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan defended the move saying, "We received those documents from a major news organization. We had every reason to believe that they were authentic at that time."

Huh? That's not a smart statement to make. Anybody with a 3 digit IQ can see in a second that those documents are fakes. Why is the White House saying they looked at them and had every reason to believe they were authentic? Now CBS can say, "Hey, even the White House looked at them and thought they were authentic."
