Authenticity of Bush Guard Docs in Question
Friday, September 10, 2004
By Liza Porteus
 
WASHINGTON — Questions continued to swirl Friday around the authenticity of memos purporting to show discrepancies in President Bush\'s Texas Air National Guard (search) service over 30 years ago.

Documents aired by CBS\' "60 Minutes" Wednesday night were described as having been written by Bush\'s commanding officer during his Guard days. Taken together, they seemed to show that Bush, then a pilot, violated a direct order and tried to avoid his duties.

But since the documents surfaced, many experts who have studied them say the memos\' typeface, formatting, paragraph spacing and other attributes indicate that they were written on a modern-day personal computer, possibly using the Microsoft Word word-processing program — not on a 1970s typewriter.

The documents were purportedly written in 1972 and 1973.

Geee and this has any effect on either Bush or Kerry ?

sorry but i tend to look at the policies of representative rather than get drawn in by the mud slinging.

and just for the record..after both Democrat and Republican confrences...

Neither party showed me any progressive (domestic) policies of any kind.

Well if we are going by policies - Bush is the only one to have a definitive policy of any kind.

Based on the story I just read, (link) it seems quite possible the memos were forgeries.  It makes you wonder though, why someone would make such an obvious error in the appearance of the superscript.  Maybe they wanted it to be noticed quickly, or just didn\'t care.

After learning about Karl Rove\'s history of such dirty tricks, like bugging his own office in 1986 to discredit Texas Gov. Mark White, I must say this situation sounds more than a little like a Rove operation.

That is so typical - the left goofed and so now its a right wing conspiracy.  Give me a break.  Dan Rather is an idiot and his rabid hatred for Bush blinded him.  CBS should fire him for not checking his sources.

Hey I agree about Rather.  If he got suckered, he should be fired.  I never liked him anyway.

However, you\'ve gotta admit this would be a typical Rove maneuver.  :)  If so, you ought to be saying "Hell yeah" rather than complaining.  You\'re lucky to have such an evil guy on your side.

Actually I am not so hyped about people forging stuff.  Its one thing to launch attacks on a candidate about things that actually happened, but quite another to make up events.

Anyway, you should see the nuts over at the Democratic Underground forums still claiming they are real documents!

As for having evil agents - I think both sides have their villians. ;)

The Dems are saying if the docs. are fake it\'s a Rep trick.

Now that\'s rich. :laughing:

Look at the sleazy cast of charaters: Carville, Begala, Sasso (Scumbag from the Dukakis fiasco), McAuliffe. The list can probabaly go on and on.

McAuliffe was all over these docs yesterday.  I haven\'t heard much from him today - he is probably curled up in the fetal position somewhere.  :laughing:
