I had no idea scanners were that dangerous! LOL
These people are getting desperate.
Was this what Joe Trippi said? I was so amazed that he was saying "Freerepublic" and named Buckhead and TankerKC (pinging--you were named by Joe Trippi on Hardball tonight!) and said they had "raised legitimate questions" and that he said it in measured tones that I didn't hear anything about changing fonts.
It doesn't make sense due to the mirror imaging, plus the content at this point has been totally debunked.
Still, what Trippi was up to with the "I'm a reasonable man" approach was interesting.
they are just plain pitiful!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA
So is he thinking that someone scanned the documents, and then changed the font? That's just nuts.
Apparently, they changed a lot of other things when they scanned them as well, such as Bush's address, the date on which the physical was supposed to be, the name of the officer who pressured Killian, etc.
I wonder how this Democratic operative knows this.

Per Dean's former campaign manager OCR theory:
I reinstalled my old OCR software, ran the Rather memos through, changed the font, and it came out...
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
All. ITS SOUNDS MORE AND MORE LIKE HOWARD DEAN IS WORRIED ABOUT THIS....and this may be why...

Burkett's Lawyer is a guy named David Van Os. Look at his biography. Bottom section. Democrat County Chairman.
ALSO...This is on his front paged....HE IS ENDORSED BY DEAN!
Read the 1st sentence of the second paragraph...Van Os worked on Dean's campaign in 2003...
To receive the endorsement of Governor Howard Dean, the man who gave voice to millions for whom nobody was speaking, is an honor beyond measure. Governor Dean represents the aspirations of millions of Americans who want to take their country back from the special interests in every branch and at every level of government. His endorsement will be a huge boost to my campaign to restore the Courts of Texas to the ownership of the people of Texas, and at the same time, to kick the totalitarian Republican political beast right in its belly.
I became actively involved in the Dean campaign in Texas in the early summer of 2003. Governor Dean inspired me enormously. He made people realize that they really can stand up and fight to take their country back from the right-wing clique that has hijacked the Republican Party and through it the whole government. He re-ignited people’s faith in their ability to retake ownership of their government through grass roots political action. His inspiration was a large factor in my decision to challenge the special interests that control the Republican Party for a seat on the Texas Supreme Court, one of their bastions.
The only thing that can stop us from winning the struggle to take our government back is our own disbelief in our power to do it. We the people do have the power, and our time has come.

Gov. Howard Dean and Democracy for America Endorses
David Van Os for Texas Supreme Court
San Antonio, Texas—David Van Os, Democratic candidate for the Texas Supreme Court, has been endorsed by Gov. Howard Dean, honorary chair and founder of Democracy for America (www.democracyforamerica.com). Van Os is part of the “Dean Dozen,” a select group of socially progressive, fiscally responsible candidates that represent the spirit of grassroots democracy in this country.
On behalf of the candidates, Democracy for America has reached out to their supporters to inform them that Van Os was part of the “Dean Dozen.” Many of these enthusiastic supporters have already expressed interest in financially supporting and volunteering for candidates Dean endorses.
“It is a great honor to receive the endorsement of Governor Howard Dean" said Van Os. "Governor Dean represents the voice of millions of ordinary Americans and Texans who want to take their government back from the special interests in every branch and at every level of government. This endorsement is a huge boost to my campaign to restore the courts of Texas to the ownership of the people of Texas."
“This year the race for the presidency is unbelievably important,” Gov. Dean said. “Beside our efforts to evict George W. Bush from the White House, we must expand the base of the Democratic Party by competing in tough races across the nation. This group of candidates represents the future leaders of our country.”
Two weeks ago another group of Dean Dozen candidates was announced. Within hours, candidates running for all levels of government saw the impact of this powerful endorsement: Rob MacKenna, candidate for supervisor of elections in Hillsborough County, Fla had 22,840 visits to his Web site the Friday after the endorsement, up from a daily average of 420. Jeff Smith, candidate for US House from Missouri, saw a 600% increase in web traffic in the first 24 hours after the endorsement and has received national media interest in his 10-way primary to fill the vacant seat of Rep. Richard Gephardt (D-Mo.). This intense Web traffic led to increased donations and volunteer support.
Dean will be endorsing a dozen candidates every two weeks. For a complete list, please visit www.democracyforamerica.com/DeanDozen/.
Today there is not a single Democrat among the nine Justices on the Texas Supreme Court. The all-Republican Court has tilted the scales of justice against working people. David Van Os is a practicing attorney of 27 years experience who has built a distinguished record as an advocate of justice for working people. He is a people’s lawyer who will be a people’s judge on a Court that is badly in need of a voice for the people.
Democracy for America is a political action committee dedicated to building a grassroots network to support socially progressive, fiscally conservative candidates at all levels of government.
You don't need a degree in computer science to know that scanning a document does not change a font. Therefore, there are three possibilities here.
1. The man is an idiot;
2. The man is a liar;
3. The man is a lying idiot.
Take your pick.
Wesley Clark's manager is saying the memos involved time travel.
Hey I WANT a scanner that can do that!
see my response here
according to LGF image enhancement, the document was CRUMPLED in an attempt to make it look old!

Scanning a document doesn't change any font. What a crock.
There's a really big story here:
Dean's campaign manager thinks scanning changes fonts!
(With this kind of expertise, no wonder the Dem's forgery was so poorly done...)
Just so I understand this, the scanner changed the font?
Yup.
I scanned a recipie for lazagna, and a recipie for oatmeal cookies came up on the screen.
But the cookies tasted JUST LIKE LAZAGNA!
It was the darndest thing.
This was posted here on FR by trolls yesterday - newbie claiming to be copier repairman with a couple good points (like why CBS won't come clean) interspersed with a lot of totally illogical stuff leading to this exact same conclusion. Obvious talking points from a desperate DNC.
