Thanks in advance, Pajamahadeen!

Your coworker is quite confused. CBS gave the documents to the White House, not the other way around.

CBS faxed the documents to the White House, not the other way around.

A co-worker is arguing that the White House released the memo to C-B

The White House released a forged document harshly criticizing Bush? Ask the "co-worker" to repeat that several times. Then laugh and point at him.

Your co-worker is wrong.

John Roberts at CBS carried the memos to the White House at 11:00 a.m. the day that they aired them.

That's the first time they had seen them; after the show, the White House gave reporters who asked for them copies.

Go to "search" on this site and type in CBS Timeline and I'm sure you'll find one as there were some excellent ones posted here.

Two hours or so BEFORE Rather's show the White House was given the memos. They of course did not comment on them prompting CBS to think that they were legit.

A co-worker is arguing that the White House released the memo to C-BS, therefore Dan Rather has NOT lost his credibility.

The White House released the memos (without comment) that CBS gave to them.

Old news. We are working on the rumor that Bush will introduce a draft immediately after winning re-election.

If Kerry somehow manages to get elected, against all odds, we may be absolutely CERTAIN that a draft for "national service" will be introduced with the first State of the Union address that a President Kerry may deliver.
