If that is the case, then why can't I get my husband to put the socks in the hamper instead of next to it?

Well . . . you know those Air Force guys. < /duckandcover>

Didn't Hackworth provide the prison photos?

Nice compilation, may I add a few comments:
#18 5000 Longmont #8 in Houston did exist and is listed by George Bush as his address in his enlistment packet also listed as his parents addres in 1978. GOP Capitalist noted that Bush moved from that address and was not there in 1972. (don't know if his parents still used it but he had a permanent address out of state)

#19 PO Box is used by 147th as their address in other offical documents.

I saw that document. It looked like white-out had been used and the "th" added.

Brilliant Commander from Vietnam. The Army didn't see his infinite wisdom as far as tactics were concerned and were more afraid that he was going to get himself killed. He's had an axe to grind with whoever he can find ever since.

Why am I scared?

What you are actually describing is a queezy/scared/excited feeling... musc like a high school kid anticipating his first sexual encounter (we'll skip the part about the letdown that follows, though)

The only way to avoid a legal nightmare is to insist that the documents are genuine in the hope that nobody can prove conclusively otherwise.

Bingo!!

There is NO WAY to conclusively prove these are forgeries. You can speak to motive all you like, but it is still just supposition.

See-BS can simply say "the originals in our possesion were composed on a word processor, but that was done by the good Colonel himself in order to preserve his collection of hand-written personal notes (of which he had many, per his widow)".

I think this whole affair will be a lot like peeing in a dark suit: it gives you a nice warm feeling, but no one else really notices!

You remember how pale Hellary was when Rummy asked her how she knew about the prison report before he did?

I know it's a stretch and I'm dreaming ... but it sure is a nice dream *L*

Remember that your post was #69 on this thread. Maybe, just maybe you'll be the next FReeper to make history.

Wow - Abu-Ghrab connection!

I was thinking Bush would win by 10 percent -- now, it's 15 percent.

CBS is a participant in the election process if they are shilling for the Kerry campaign....

***

Don't you mean "because" and not "if"? CBS has been campaigning for Kerry ever since he became the front runner. They would shill for Attila the Hun if they thought he could defeat Bush.

As for Rather, "What's the temperature, Kenneth?"

"Would a guy who doesn't type really go through this procedure of centering when typing a memo to himself?
"

Well, of course not. I said as much.

My point here, as it has been in all of this is to debunk things people are saying that are simply not true. The document is a forgery, but what's in these threads is a hash of half-truths, non-truths, and just plain silliness.

Yesterday, I tried to do this.

Proportional type was available on the IBM Executive typewriter, not on the Selectric, except for the Selectric Composer, which certainly would not have been in that office. The IBM Executive could have been, however.

The IBM Executive allowed for replacing individual type bars. I know for a fact that one available set offered the superscript "th", "rd", "st" and "nd" as superscript characters for use in typing ordinal numbers. Would that have been in this office? Perhaps. Since unit designations are often written as ordinal numbers, logic says that such a machine might have been available. The military did all sorts of strange things as experiments.

It is indeed possible to center text...on any typewriter. I just described how to do it.

The odds of all this coming together are miniscule. The document is a forgery. BUT...it's incorrect to say that the document absolutely could NOT have been created at that time. It COULD have been. It was not, but it COULD have been.

There has been so much misinformation here about the technology of 1972, written mostly by people who weren't even alive then, or by people who never used the modern office equipment of the day.

There are those here who did use the equipment, who were in the USAF at the time. I saw IBM Executive typewriters in the headquarters office of my detachment at Ft. Meade in Maryland in 1968. I have USED that typewriter and have typed superscript ordinal number endings. I KNOW that capability existed. I have centered headings more times than I want to remember. I KNOW that one of the typefaces on the IBM Executive is very similar to the face in the Times New Roman TT font in Windows.

I also am quite certain that this document is a fraud.

The authenticity issue can be proven one way or the other by his answering whether he has a copy, or whether he has an original.

If he has the original, why was it doctored to look like a copy? Let's see the typing strike throughs on the back of the page, etc., etc, etc.,

CBS News states with absolute certainty that the ability to produce the "th" superscript mentioned in reports about the documents did exist on typewriters as early as 1968

Not with proportional spacing with a Times New Roman font, centered perfectly and when superimposed on a document prepared on Word 2002 using the same text is a perfect match.
