Sewer crawling has become a favortie pasttime for the MSM.

I don't have tv. What's up?

That would be IBM who supplied the military with electric typewriters in the early 70's-- but its just a matter of time before the company clerk- typist comes forward ant this whole thing really blows up big- cause he remembers what kind of typewriter he used and if Killian did his own memos, etc. I can't wait.

"The White House got the memos from CBS, who faxed them to the White House the day before the story."

LMAO! And the DUmmies are using the fact that the White House-released memos are the same as the memos on CBS as evidence of their authenticity? Geez Louise those guys are nuts!

I'm certain Matthews will have a "nuanced" view, replete with JFK talking points

Hugh has now entered the building.

Obtained and released by CBS. Good. No WH comment.

So, what needs to be done to initiate an investigation? Do we call the Secret Service? I know they are the guys to go to on counterfeiting crimes.

What about forgery on this scale and in this circumstance? FBI?

Roundtable: Jeff Birnbaum says...

Exactly. Even the folks who read "People" will cry foul, and take it out on Kerry and the Dems.

Liberals use Macintosh's because of Steven Jobs. So I would compare using Mac versions of Word Perfect or even MS Office.

[WVNan]

Uh, guys, the dead guy signed those "copies".

uh....ever heard of copy and paste method when making copies? They lifted the signature from one of the authentic documents and copied it to the fake.

Anyone who posts a picture of Helen Thomas should be castrated.

I'm just trying to promote chastity. Besides: how good does you wife/girlfriend look now?

Mark Levin is doing a fair job also LOL

Yes. These are stone cold forgeries.

I did a detailed comparison against a scan of a document typed on an IBM Executive - the only plausible typewriter that could make a document like that.

The typefaces did not match.

On top of that add all the other evidence - especially the indent and line breaks matching MSWord defaults exactly.

This is the classic smoking gun.

thanks for posting that, meek

lugsoul, I think you have an excellent point.

Somebody who has Acrobat writer needs to do this experiment IMMEDIATELY! A .pdf file is searchable, which means that the document has the content encoded in some way. How does that change the look of the document? I can conceive of it creating a smaller superscript 'th', but I can't imagine it converting to a Times New Roman font and changing line breaks. I don't think it's a possibility, but it needs to be ruled out.
