You've got to be kidding?!?!?! This is just getting better by the second. By next week it will turn out that this lady babysits Dan Ratherbiased's daughter's kids.

Actually, Dan is the father of Ms. Knox's kids. I've got a memo to prove it. After the ink dries I'll dash off to the nearest Kinko's and fax it to you...

Hmmm, indeed. I think it is part of the forgery plan to try and prove he was avoiding a physical due to drug use.

I've never seen a picture of her, but I'm assuming she has plenty of $$$$, that tends to make the ugliest hags out there attractive.

While they had her on TV, did she get a chance to say that she was cutting her pills in half and having to choose between food and medicine because prescriptions are too expensive? Might as well shill all the way.

I know a girl who is so incredibly ugly and has so many acne scars she looks like a leper. But her father died and left her $100 million, and the guys lined right up!

Ricky Knox:

http://www.belogical.com/1997/06/k970620.htm

Excerpt:

"If I've got this straight, Barnes and another guy named Ricky Knox were consultants for the company that runs the State Lottery. But federal prosecutors have implicated the two men in a kickback scheme. So far, no charges have been filed, but look at what Barnes has made out of a bad situation. GTECH is going to pay him and Knox more than $23 million dollars to STOP working for them. In addition, Barnes will get about $168,000 per month -- I said per MONTH -- for three years. Kind of makes you wonder just what Barnes and Knox could have been doing for GTECH that would be worth that kind of money."

The Crossing Over guy's name is John Edward but both of them claim to be able to channel souls.

Dan Rather 60 Minutes: Marion Knox Statement Contradicts The Memo She Says Is Factually Correct

Posted on 09/15/2004 7:09:58 PM PDT by notkerry

Marion Knox's statements prove the documents are forgeries and not even factually correct. Dan Rather again showed his bias by not following up on the statement.

Marion Knox alleged that the forged documents facts were accurate.

The May 4, 1972 forged document is a total fabrication as proven by her own testimony. It is this document that alleges that Colonel Killian ordered Lieutenant Bush to report for Annual Physical Examination for flight clearance by May 14, 1972.

However, Marion Knox clearly indicated in her interview with Dan Rather that Lieutenant Bush had until his birthday to get the medical exam completed. President Bush's birthday is July 7th. As such, Dan Rather is screwed again and clearly knows it as he refused to follow up on her statement.

Marion Knox also stated that Killian was upset because President Bush refused an order to complete his medical exam. On what date is she eluding this order was given? Dan Rather again fails to ask any question that could bury him.

Remember know that Ms. Knox claims the forgeries are factually accurate.

Per the admitted forgery of May 19, 1972, Colonel Killian and Lieutenant Bush discussed options of how Bush can get out of coming to drill from now through November. The memo also noted a discussion about getting Bush's flight physical situation fixed before his date (As Admitted by Ms. Knox to Dan Rather, this was July 7, 1972). This confirms again the exam was not required by the regulations in May of 1972. The forgery also notes that Bush says he will do his exam in Alabama if he stays in a flight status in Alabama.

The forgery continues that Bush has been working with staff to come up with options and identified a unit that may accept him. Contradicting what Ms. Knox said, the forgery then notes that Colonel Killian told Bush he had to have written acceptance before he would be transferred.

Bush was asked in 1972 to work for an Alabama Senate campaign. On May 24, 1972, Bush filled out a form requesting a transfer to the 9921st Air Reserve Squadron in Montgomery, Alabama.

This unit had no planes and minimal duties. On May 26, 1972, Reese H. Bricken, commander of the 9921st, wrote to Bush to tell him that his application had been accepted.

Commander Bricken said in an interview with the Boston Globe, "We met just one weeknight a month. We were only a postal unit. We had no airplanes."

In fact, Air Reserve Force members, while not required to perform actual duty, could be drafted for the Vietnam War under the Obligated Reserves Section (ORS).

This is why Bush did not need to have a medical exam for flight clearance in May of 1972. Even the forged document proves this fact and totally discredits Ms. Knox, but Dan Rather refused to follow up on this point.

Dan Rather is so bias that he cannot even see the forgeries support that Bush and discredit his story. Bush had approval to not take the physical and explain why there is not guard duty from May to November 1972 time frame.

In fact, Bush's pay records from Alabama are Air Reserve Force records and other documents released confirm this transfer. Dan Rather refuses to discuss this fact.

The alleged forgeries and known Bush records shows that Ms. Knox claims are factually incorrect because Colonel Killian approved the transfer. However, Denver higher-ups retracted the approval. The Denver retraction did not occur until July of 1972.

On July 21, 1972, the Air Reserve Personnel Center in Denver ruled against Bush's reassignment to Alabama, and noted that as "an obligated Reservist" he could only be "assigned to a specific Ready Reserve Position."

By the time Bush was notified of this, he had already missed the July 7th(Bush's Birthday - Note others claim the drop dead date is 3 months after Bush's birthday) drop-dead date for his physical. If the transfer to the non-flight unit had not been overturned, Bush did not need clearance to fly. The unit had no planes.

Again, Dan Rather is so bias that he cannot even see the earlier dated forgery and the next forgery support discredit Ms. Knox. Bush had approval to not take the physical and Colonel Killian approved a transfer to a unit that had no reporting requirement.

If Ms. Knox's memory is even correct about memo's being factually accurate, then she has her dates confused per the August 1, 1972 Forged Document. In this forgery, Colonel Killian notes that he recommended Bush for transfer to 9921st Air Reserve Squadron in May of 1972. Colonel Killian also notes the transfer was not allowed. Colonel Killian also notes that he has ordered that Bush be suspended from flight status due to failure to meet annual physical examination for flight clearance as ordered. However, Dan Rather refuses to ask this question of MS. Knox since it would again cause his story a problem since it confirms that no exam was required in May of 1972.

Bush's known records show that Bush did not receive a written order of the transfer being over ruled until September of 1972. Dan Rather again ignores this fact!

On September 5, 1972, Bush requested permission to "perform equivalent duty" at the 187th Tactical Reconnaissance Group in Montgomery "for the months of September, October, and November," and he quickly received approval to do so.

Bush's records show that he was paid for service on October 28-29 and November 11-14 of 1972. Bush received a dental examination at Dannelly in Alabama on January 6, 1973. Pay sheet summaries indicate service from January 4-6 and 8-10 of 1973. Pay sheet summaries indicate service from January 8-10 and April 7-8 and May 1-3 and May 8-10 and May 19-20 and May 22-24 of 1973.

On May 2, 1973, Bush's immediate superiors conducted an annual performance review covering the period from May 1, 1972 to April 30, 1973, which stated "Lt. Bush has not been observed at this unit during the period of the report."

This should be no surprise since he was assigned to 9921st Air Reserve Squadron in Montgomery, Alabama from May 26, 1972 to September 5, 1972 and that Bush had been in Alabama 187th since September of 1972.

Clearly Lt. Col. William D. Harris Jr. and Lt. Col. Jerry B. Killian were aware of this and wrote in May of 1972: "A civilian occupation made it necessary for him to move to Montgomery, Ala. He cleared this base on 15 May 1972 and has been performing equivalent training in a non-flying status with the 187 Tac Recon Gp. Dannelly ANG Base, Alabama."

According to the other Forged Document dated August 18, 1973: Colonel Killian notes Bush wasn’t here during rating period and I don’t have any feedback from 187th in Alabama. Colonel Killian refused to rate Bush for May 1972 to May 1973.

More proof of Dan Rather's bias is shown by the August 18, 1973 forgery. This forgery is not even consistent with the August 1, 1972 forgery. It makes no mention of Bush's assignment to the 9921st Air Reserve Squadron from May of 1972 to September of 1972, which is clearly acknowledged in the earlier forgery.

Additionally, Bush’s known records show Dan Rather’s bias in September of 1973.

On September 5, 1973, Bush requested discharge from service, to be effective on October 1. He wrote, "I am moving to Boston, Massachusetts to attend Harvard Business School as a full time student."

Apparently know understanding Bush's assignments and actual duty in 1972 and 1973, Colonel Killian recommended approval of the discharge the following day.

Dan Rather showed his bias reporting again by never mentioning this fact. Nor does he ever mention the even more important facts that follow.

Bush was only required to complete 50 credits per year, not fulltime service. Bush had completed all the required credits for his six years of service in five years, four months, and five days.

Bush was honorably discharged from the Texas Air National Guard on October 1, 1973.

Bush was immediately transferred to the inactive reserves in Denver, Colorado, and then discharged from the Air Force Reserve on November 21, 1974.

Does anyone really believe Dan Rather's latest interview even get close to saving CBS from what is likely ACTUAL MALICE (Publishing a false statement with reckless disregard for the truth)
