Still trying to wrap my head around the fact that the MSM did not offer any pushback against the objective, forensic assertions regarding typewriters and such. I mean, if Rather was on track in terms of truth, then this is the arena where they had a battle on their hands. But like Nancy Pelosi, they just bumbled on in their la-la land, as they continue to do to this day, making wholly unfounded assertions in the interest of political gain. Suck to be them. Thankfully most of the American people aren’t them. Only about 1/3.
Some basic points:
1) At the alleged time of the memo, it was not yet time for the physical (due during birth-month)..
2) there were, within 24 hours, over 40 LINES of evidence that the documents were not only themselves forgeries, but also did not accord with known facts and procedures. This grew to around 65 lines of evidence within 48 hours.
3) even if the document had been real, and further, had reflected the intent of the CO, it having not been given to the subject of the order means its meaningless. Orders not delivered are not actually orders.
