Me too. If the White House had caught this before the 60 minutes piece aired, it could have saved a lot of negative publicity. I am afraid that the accusations will float, but the later retractions won't even break public consciousness. That is usually the way these things work.

I beg to differ...CBS attempts to discredit Bush with obviously forged documents? And Ben Barnes own daughter says he's lying about the supposed favors he did to get Bush into the Texas Air National Guard?

When this breaks out into the MSM it will be a huge scandal, and can only play to Bush's benefit. It will totally discredit CBS, and should also have the positive effect of forever stopping the ridiculous obsession of the Democrat's/MSM over Bush's National Guard service.

I hope you are right, but considering that the MSM wants Kerry to win, I wouldn't have much faith in them giving much air time to the forgery story. They will all probably mention it, but it takes repetition and a sense of outrage to make an impression on any but the politically involved.

I am afraid that most people won't even notice.
