I just saw it, and I am surprised that they were able to cover this story so fast. Pretty well done I think. I also liked the rebuttal at the end, about how the Dems supported a draft dodger like Clinton, meanwhile, they are tearing into Bush.

Poor Dan Blather...before retirement, he isexposed on the world stage to be the biased old fraud he is.
May he gurgle his way down the toilet-bowl of history.

Mark Levin has the daughter(from the Monica Crowley show) of Mr. Barnes who is disputing her fathers words. All for political reason and a [his] book that is about to come out.

Mark Levin has the reporter that interviewed barnes daughter!

But 60 Minutes has obtained a number of documents we are told were taken from Col. Killian's personal file. Among them, a never-before-seen memorandum from May 1972, where Killian writes that Lt. Bush called him to talk about "how he can get out of coming to drill from now through November."
Lt. Bush tells his commander "he is working on a campaign in Alabama…. and may not have time to take his physical." Killian adds that he thinks Lt. Bush has gone over his head, and is "talking to someone upstairs."
Col. Killian died in 1984. 60 Minutes consulted a handwriting analyst and document expert who believes the material is authentic.
Robert Strong was a friend and colleague of Col. Killian who ran the Texas Air National Guard administrative office in the Vietnam era. Strong, now a college professor, believes these documents are genuine. From CBS's OWN site:

Per Fox, Killian gave glowing praise to Bush's service in official May 26,1972 memo (part of TANG file), and refers to Bush move to Alabama with approval.

I hope this isn't all a set up where CBS knows that the docs in the released .pdf files were replications of the actual docs and will be releasing the originals as soon as all the hounds think they have the fox cornered. I'm a cynical bastard, ain't I?

This story got legs right here on Free Republic. This story was born here on FR.

Yes... the superscript "th" and the "smart quotes" are quite damning.

Good points from Fox:
Unique letterhead on CBS memosUse of superscript mostly not available at the time on 1970s typewriters
The wording does not match previous documents written by the purported authors [Authors of the CBS memos have been conveniently dead for decades]
