I have to admit that it was a fun thing to do. At least his neighbors saw it!

"Lt. Dan is one sick puppy."

He's worse than that. The documents were not only fake, they were really, really BAD fakes. If Dan is so stupid that he can't see that, he deserves pity, not scorn. Believe me, pity is far worse to a "newsman" than scorn.

And in this case, it was the little mess(ed up) boys running around in Dan’s head.

"..nobody has ever proven that the documents were not what they purported to be,.."

You can't prove a negative Danny Dipstick! The propaganda theory of repetition only works if you have an audience.

Think of all the power Rather had and for how long. Scary!

Dan Rather......

“They’re real! They’re real! You kids get off my lawn! Whose cat’s been crapping in my garden again?”

Or the frequency - he must have more to say about the frequency.

They found a few with superscript and font, but they were special typewriters and the military buys things by the millions.

Precisely.

And then there is Kerning.

However, even the typewriters of the day that DID do the superscript, etc. did not match the contents of the forgeries as precisely as Word versions did.

They found a few with superscript and font, but they were special typewriters and the military buys things by the millions.

From my experience in the advertising trade, I'm familiar with those machines.

They were primarily employed by engraving and typesetting companies. They were huge -- filling an entire tabletop. They were massive...and obscenely heavy. And they printed their output on a tape, not on paper.

No way an ANG base ever had one of those. Complete red herring...

[ops33]

If Dan Rather believes the documents to be genuine he has never given a good explination as to why they look so fake.

[N. Theknow]

Dan Ra^ther = Bli^thering A^thhole

[MindBender26]

Carry on. I’ll be in the area all day.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Will the real Lucy Ramirez step forward and save him ( crickets chirp )? Once again I ask Rather and his journo cronies if they were teaching a journalism class and a student came up with a story with iffy sources like this one had what kind of grade would they get?

[Political Junkie Too]

...nobody has ever proven that the documents were not what they purported to be...

Fortunately for us, Dan Rather did successfully prove once and for all that the MSM was NOT what they purported to be.

"Case Closed"

True. For a deeper into Ra^ther's pathology, read Bernard Goldberg's "Bias".

[Peet]

Gee! Even my proofreading needs proofreeding...

“For a deeper LOOK into...”

[MindBender26]

.....Or talk to some of us old CBS types who know many of the stories in Rather’s own books are BS, or about the time he took $20,000 from the Texas Dems to speak, when his dyke daughter was running for office.

We all heard about Cheny’s daughter, but about Rathers, NADA, and Cheney’s daughter is still a lady. Rather’s is Refrigerator Perry in a bad dress.
