Default ABC Reports on CBS story

ABC news just reported on the 6 PM news that 2 document analysts who were
employed by CBS told CBS before the program aired that the documents had
numerous problems and could not be authenticated. They interviewed the
analysts, one saying she e-mailed CBS the night before the broadcast warning
them that if they went on the air with those documents, by Thursday morning
they would be getting the same questions from hundreds of document analysts
that she raised. One expert CBS quoted on Friday now says he could not
authenticate any documents. He only looked at the signature.

ABC also produced a typewriter expert who said that the IBM Selectric
Composer (the most advanced typewriter at the time) could not produce those
documents.

The bloggers are now calling for Congressional hearings to find the source
for the docs and determine if CBS is guilty of election altering fraud
attempts. At this point, since CBS is not forthcoming, I think
congressional hearings are in order. I have not heard anyone speculate that
any sort of criminal investigation is underway, so I can think of no other
body to take the lead on this.

In related news, Texans for Truth is now offering a $50,000 award to anyone
who can prove that Bush reported to service between May 1972 and May 1973.
Does anyone actually think that he was there during that time? I sure as
hell don't. And to be honest, I don't really care! What happened 35 years
ago means nothing!

I couldn't agree more. But I do care about a major broadcast (public

Does it matter if he continues to lie about it today?



What lie would that be? He's said he served and got an honorable discharge.

I only saw the last half of the ABC report, but it looks like CBS has
blown it.

The bloggers are, of course, over-reacting, or do they want a Swift vets
investigation too?

We've already seen the absurdity of Robert Novak calling on CBS to
reveal its sources.

Typical obfuscation of the main topic and far more relevant fact:

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/WNT/I..._040914-1.html
Emily Will, a veteran document examiner from North Carolina, told ABC News
she saw problems right away with the one document CBS hired her to check the
weekend before the broadcast.

"I found five significant differences in the questioned handwriting, and I
found problems with the printing itself as to whether it could have been
produced by a typewriter," she said.

Will says she sent the CBS producer an e-mail message about her concerns and
strongly urged the network the night before the broadcast not to use the
documents.

"I told them that all the questions I was asking them on Tuesday night, they
were going to be asked by hundreds of other document examiners on Thursday
if they ran that story," Will said.

But the documents became a key part of the 60 Minutes II broadcast
questioning President Bush's National Guard service in 1972. CBS made no
mention that any expert disputed the authenticity.

"I did not feel that they wanted to investigate it very deeply," Will told
ABC News.

I saw the complete report this morning, thanks. The Dallas Morning News
tracked down Killian's typist. I may take the trouble of registering
with their website to read more. I'll bet the story is linked somewhere
out there in blogland.

Actually, arguing about this stuff obfuscates the greater issue of
Bush's National Guard service, which itself is a lesser issue than his
presidential record.

It wasn't accurate content. The reason to forge a document

Bingo!

CBS is trotting out the former secretary to Killian who says that she
believes the memos are forged as well, but that they reflect his thinking at
the time.

IOW CBS is staking their credibility on hearsay.

Separate the memo from the man. She said what Killian was thinking. She

Something extraordinarily fishy about this whole episode.
They were obvious blatant forgeries too easily discredited.
Normally, you'd wonder who this would help, but first
consider who this hurts ... obviously Kerry, with Bush
merely being an incidental beneficiary. Now, who this
really helps is the Clintons, both in unchallenged continuing
control of the Democratic party, and particularly Hillary's
presumptive bid for the presidency in 2008. Yep, this has

Nah, that'd be no fun at all.

That slippery snake is too clever to have himself directly or

Actually it strikes me more likely that it might come from the mind of
the great political trickster, Karl Rove. Do you really think that
Begala and Carville would sabotage a four year Democratic term just to
help Hillary? If so, I think you need to step back and think
logically. Giving the Repbulicans four more years is in no way helpful
to either Senator Clinton *nor* the Democratic Party platform
(especially when you consider the possibility of another couple of
Supreme Court justice appointments).

No, the more likely source would be Rove and *his* ilk. That's what's
fishy to me, *if* they are forgeries, which isn't yet proven. What's
bizarre is CBS' gullibility if this ends up being the case.

Dave, if it came from Rove, it is a very, very dumb move.
A 'smart' Democrat would not have released it to
60 minutes, "at least" not yet. Better to hold onto it
and not leak it until the day before the election,
when the Republicans would not have time to counter it.
I think Rove would have thought that the Democrats
might do that, so, sensing it could easily backfire
against the Reps, Rove would instigate this.
I'm not saying he's ethical, I'm just saying he
is to smart to do something so dangerous that
could easily backfire on him.

Of course it is. The odds of winning the White House for the same party
after having one of their own in for 2 terms are very slim.

Yes, they would ... and in a New York minute.

Don't be so disingenuous, Dave. Hillary's (or Bill's) ambitions would
trump party loyalty every time. Their ambitions know no bounds, just ask
long-time acquaintances like Web Hubbell or, if you could, Vince Foster.

BTW, the smartest thing Kerry ever did was NOT selecting Hillary for
the VP slot, because if he did and he went on to win the presidency,
he'd know his life wouldn't be worth a plugged nickel.

No, the more likely source would be Rove and *his* ilk. That's what's

Come off it, Dave. Even their liberal media brethren, like the Washington
Post and ABC News, have concluded the documents are forgeries.

What's bizarre is CBS' gullibility if this ends up being the case.


A good "mark", by definition, is one eager to be conned. And ever since
old man Bush gave Dan his come-uppance many years ago in a live
interview, Rather has been *seething* for revenge.

The bloggers are now calling for Congressional hearings to find the source

congressional hearings are in order. I have not heard anyone speculate that
any sort of criminal investigation is underway, so I can think of no other
body to take the lead on this.


This is a Karl Rove masterpiece: he'll be crowing about it
