Appearing in Kerry campaign literature on April 27, 2004, under the headline "Key Unanswered Questions on Bush's Record in National Guard" was the reference to "verbal orders" to recommend Bush's suspension from flying because he missed a physical - issued by Bush's commander, Lt. Col. Jerry Killian on Aug. 1, 1972.

Ouch.
Wasn't March or April about the time the Hildebeast talked about an October surprise? If so, sounds like premeditated planning.
For a side by side comparison of the CBS/Kerry talking point, look up FR thread "Was the DNC involved".
I just don't understand why these links are not being picked up elsewhere. I am more than annoyed that Van Os is getting a pass here.
"sounds like premeditated planning."
I agree with your redundancy.
That's in a legit doc... see page 10 no. 6 of the following link http://www.usatoday.com/news/bushdocs/11-4_2004_Personnel_File.pdf
Burkett said he got the documents in March, so this is very interesting....
Oops.
Smoking Gun time....
How could there be a verbal order in March from Killian about suspending Bush from flying status for failing to take his physical - when his physical was not due until July?
Yep. This was their October Surprise, but I'll bet they never expected the surprise to be on them. For once they got bitten by their own snake.
One way to facilitate this is to create a document with all the evidence neatly laid out with references that can easily be followed and send them to Drudge, Rush, and Hannity. A headline on Drudge frequently kick starts this stuff.
YUP!!! That's a date on one of the FAKE MEMOS!!
All this talk about convening a board is interesting. Did that board ever happen. I don't think so. The DNC wants to quote chapter and verse out an Air Force Manual that it doesn't know anything about. Missing a physical when absent is not a big deal. It only becomes a big deal when you fly without a physical.
This is going straight to the top of the Communist chain of command, all the way through CBS, the DNC to John Kerry.
I also noticed the other article, "Tony Coelho Admits on Hardball that the DNC Had Forged Memos Before CBS News Saw Them", and that is very interesting! Coelho is a Democrat Handler for DNC and Kerry, I believe.
This is smelling better and better!

FACT: The order suspending Bush from flight duty stated: “Verbal orders of the Comdr on 1 Aug 72 suspending 1STLT George W. Bush…from flying status are confirmed…Reason for Suspension: Failure to accomplish annual medical examination. Off will comply with para 2-10, AFM 35-13. Authority: Para 2-29m, AFM 35-13. [Aeronautical Orders, Number 87, 29 September 1972, emphasis added]
No Smoking gun, the verbal order referenced to his suspension is in a legitimate document at usatoday.
What makes the Killian fakes different is that it says he was ordered to take a physical, and he refused that order ending in his flight suspension.
We did that already.
We sent him the website that shows the Dems have meetings at that actual Kinkos, and he never budged.
I guess this is being deliberately dribbled, which is fine with me - Kerry is getting creamed by the coverage.
Because it wasnt in April it was Aug
