Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired What did you say you did in the Air Force? Arthur Kramer Actually I have given you the answer to that at least once before. I don't expect you to admit it since you are not an honourable man. What did you say a neocon is? If you don't know the answer at least be man enough to say so. Dan, U. S. Air Force, retired Typical no answer answer. Bwahaha! Coming from the undisputed and still "King of Refusing to Answer Direct Questions", that is a hoot, Cosmo! What did you say a neocon was again? Ooops--shouldn't have put in that "again", should I? You never answered it the first time...or the second...or the forty-eighth time... At some point you are really gonna have to stop using words you can't understand the meaning of. Brooks Arthur Kramer |

Subject: Dan Rather forges ahead From: "Jarg" Date: 9/11/2004 5:32 PM Pacific Standard Time Message-id: m "Bob Coe" wrote in message news:%JM0d.23965$ni.13950@okepread01... I just don't see how a person like Dan Rather could be so easily duped by these forgeries. They weren't even originals! Hell even I can cut out someone's signature and put it on any letter I want with just a Xerox machine. Today I would just use my scanner and add it to my MS Word document. I give him the benefit of the doubt - he saw what he wanted to see. No, I think Dan Rather was putting his reputation behind a known forgery, to give it credence, and to hurt the Republican party. I hope it now results in his finally being put out to pasture (which should have happened 10 years ago anyway). Same with the other scum-bags on 60 minutes, who are always making a mountain out of a mole hill. I'm sure he has no qualms about hurting the Republican party, but I still think it unlikely he knew. Jarg Nothing to know. These were the real thing. The rest is just the usual Neocon spin. Hey, what's a neocon? |

The forger was so amateurish that he didn't know how to turn off the auto-correct feature! all the best -- Dan Ford And, does anyone remember how you centered a heading with a typewriter? You counted the letters in the line to be typed, then centered the roller and backspaced half the number of letters before starting to type. Can you imagine a commander typing himself an MFR going through that sort of centered heading drill? Well, Ed, the "memos" look like forgeries to me too but I've got to wonder about that argument: were preprinted headers completely unknown in the service back then? |

Didn't the Guard have letterhead back then? Actually, probably not. I was a company clerk in the army somewhat earlier, and I never saw letterhead paper. (Never saw superscripts or centering, either!) Someone called it "Rathergate" and I thought this was pretty funny, since CBS attaches -gate to just about everything political. It's astonishing how little play this story is getting. Compare how excited the networks and the newspapers got about Republicans' contributing (oh no!) to the Swifties advertising pot. But here is CBS News, where Walter Cronkite once reigned, peddling forgeries that very likely were created by the Kerry campaign. But when you Google "CBS forgeries", the returns you get are all from second-tier newspapers with Republican proclivities, like the New York Post. There was one good story in the Washington Post. (The post, for all its overt partisanship, is a very honest newspaper.) I'd be very grateful if anyone could point me to stories in the New Times or Los Angeles Times, for example. all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line) The Warbird's Forum www.warbirdforum.com Expedition sailboat charters www.expeditionsail.com |

The issue isn't the raised "th", but the fact that the "th" is written in a smaller font as well. From 1968 on SMC (Smith Corona) typewriters had two optional keyface slots (shift one and shift +) for a number of optional letters, accents and marks. I had section and paragraph marks on mine as I clerked in a law office. "rd" and "nd" superscripts were also available. Bill Jameson |

I used to think so, but after reading their (Washington Post) reporting of the take down of Saddam last year and comparing it to what was actually happening, I was forced to conclude that they were either, dishonest, stupid or covering a completly different war than I was watching. As for CBS, I stopped watching them after they showed a "live" picture of New York on 1/1/2000 in which they had digitally covered the NBC Studios sign with a CBS sign. You can't trust people who knowingly falsify the news. all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line) The Warbird's Forum www.warbirdforum.com Expedition sailboat charters www.expeditionsail.com |
