BushGuardaugust1 memo - a FAKE
CBS, self | 9/9/04 | Carl Donath

Posted on 09/09/2004 2:09:48 PM PDT by ctdonath2

Proof the CBS document BushGuardaugust1.pdf is a FAKE:

Original text, slightly adjusted for rectangular fit:

Same text, screen capture of document written in MS Word 2002 with no effort to match original aside from document width:

Overlapping images, with original as B/W negative:

Aside from slight warping presumably due to distortion introduced by a low-quality photocopier, the two texts line up exactly. The "30+ year old proof" against Bush is a fraud.

It would have to be deliberate. Like you said.

In MS Word, if you type 1st and don't space, you get the superscript. If you space you don't get the superscript.

However, you can highlight the "st", go to "fonts", and remove the superscript and it stays next to the 1.

1 st
1st

Forget the memo.

Rational replies on DU? Indications that there is intelligent, thoughtful life there. Ha!

Your quotes are fake.

Jim Angle did well on the document story. And yes, I did catch the Goler questions. What a 'rat hack!

I will never forget the abuse heaped on Gary Aldrich by the complicit media. How they demanded he not be allowed on the air.

The world paid a terrible price for the election of that traitor. We cannot allow that to happen again.

Yes, someone could have gone to the effort to format the spacing at certain places to try to cover their tracks. Hugh Hewitt is all over this now --- www.krla870.com.

Why would somebody write a memo to themselves, no CC it to anybody else, and then just leave it there?

When our office was being run by a suspected crook, a big shot Fortune 500 corporate person told me (over 10 years ago) to write memos and mail them to myself. The purpose was to have them independently date stamped in case I was ever implicated. But I suspect, in this case, some rabid partisans decided they could fill in a blank space in the Bush resume by using a dead man to author some memos.

unless someone did some deliberate formatting of certain letters or words to stretch or shrink them.

I experimented on my word program and I think found answer. If you use the letter l instead of the number 1, in word you get an exact sample of spacing that is in the orginal letter.

The problem with word is that as sson as you type the number 1 and the st after, it superscripts the st. To work around it, some people may have done different methods.
