Have at him!
They are NOT documents. They are supposedly "personal notes" of a CO. There very well may be bogus, just like your paranoia!

Thanks for the verification.
The left wing media (as in the nationwide AP wire that was picked up by virtually every paper in the country) INTENTIONALLY excerpted that part out of their quote when they wrote a story on the video. They're covering Barnes' tracks for him.
Didn't Rather do any background research on this? Barnes has been breaking silence, he's actuallt been braying, loudly, about this for years.
They promote the spin even when to anyone who knows the facts , the spin is nothing but a bunch of lies.

Luckily there are millions of Americans who were draft age in the '60s (or who are wives of '60s draft age men), and no matter how the willfully-ignorant media try to spin this, the facts of President Bush's Natinal Guard Service cannot be sold as incomplete or inadequate in any way.
As I recall it, we (USAF) changed to match the rest of the DoD.
What has never surfaced before, reports CBS News Anchor Dan Rather, are four documents from the personal files of Col. Jerry Killian, Mr. Bush's squadron commander. They could help answer lingering questions on whether Lt. Bush received special consideration during his military service.
Why would Bush's files be in Killian's files??
I have a wonderful BUSH/CHENEY tote bag...quite large that I use to carry my books back and forth. I plop it right on the counter...standing upright......and leave it there while I just happen to look for new books. LOLOL.....I didnt' intend to take any new books but just had to leave that bag on the counter while the guy was there!!!
When he left, I left!!! LOL....smiling all the way home.
Berger's undercrackers?
How long ago did killian pass away?
60 minutes changes to a new version of the truth without even batting an eye.
Sean reported today on his radio show, that Bush did actually sign form 180. It was also reported again tonight, and referenced in a story about President Bush letting the Pentagon know how miffed he was at how they have handled his records. The Presidents COS had to remind the Pentagon that it was the President's form 180 that had originally requested the records be released!!
kerry will be forced to sign, or it is the end for his campaign realistically.

From the video file and today's interview Barnes claimes he helps lots of rich kids get into the Guard...WHO THEN? We need names in order to chek out his claims.
As a reusult they tend to believe what Kerry says about the nasty American toops.
Three million served in Nam... another 3 million served at that time but were in Europe or other parts of Asia.
That makes 6 million served and peraps another 12 to 18 million influenced by those who served.
Half of those 24 million people are Democrats. I think Kerry has lost about 5 or 6 million of those people due to the Switft Boat story. They are not likely to come back to Kerry,
Thanks for the heads up. I just rechecked my donation confirmation receipt from earlier today, and it's definitely from the Swift Boat vets.
I think he did
On Special Report tonight .. Brit did a report about how the Bush Admin was annoyed at the Pentagon because 3 times they were sent a letter from the Pentagon assuring the administration that ALL records were released as requested by President Bush .. even though they (Pentagon) keep finding new documents
I got the feeling someone in the Pentagon is playing games with his the release of the records .. but that's just my opinion
I found this site it has an exerpt of the Ben Barnes interview.http://www.texansforkerry.com/texansforkerry/
That's the question. They were supposedly non-official memos that his CO kept conterporaneously. How did they come to light just recently? Where have they been? Why did his CO keep personal memos on Bush?
Given that they were not part of the official record, and he is dead now, and therefore unable to give us anymore information, who cares?
On one of talk shows today I heard a woman saying she was surprised that she had received a check from FEMA just three days after she filed her claim. She hadn't thought she'd hear anything for weeks.
I saved the True Story link. Thanks.
