UPDATE 12: In the August 18, 1973 memo "discovered" by 60 Minutes, Jerry Killian purportedly writes:
Staudt has obviously pressured Hodges more about Bush. I'm having trouble running interference and doing my job. But wait! Reader Amar Sarwal points out that General Staudt, who thought very highly of Lt. Bush, retired in 1972.
The more I look at these "memos," the more obvious it appears that they are inept forgeries.

IT DOESN'T RAIN...BUT IT POURS!
The only part I'm uncertain of is "RFI". (please **** if necessary).
I am at a complete loss for words. Complete.
reaching for inhaler
The more I see of this, the more I am convinced that Kerry is being submarined in order to set up Hitlery for 2008.
I find myself LOL while just sitting here doing nothing. This is great.
It was sad, dear Lord, it was sad, dear Lord,
It was sad when the great ship went down . . .
Great catch!!
Get a look at this!
What if they were fake on... JUST KIDDING!
I think this pretty much sticks a fork in my PA theory... now someone needs to examine the files on the secretaries computer at Bill Clintons Harlem Office.

SCRAPPLEFACE:
1972 Email Casts Doubt on Bush Guard Service
(2004-09-09) -- CBS reporter Dan Rather today released the text of a recently discovered email from then-Lt. George W. Bush's Air National Guard commanding officer which casts more doubt upon the military service of the man who would become the 43rd President of the United States.
The revelation of the email comes just hours after questions were raised about the authenticity of typewritten memos from the same officer, shown yesterday by Mr. Rather on 60 Minutes.
According to the previously unseen email message sent in May 1972 by squadron commander Jerry Killian, Lt. Bush phoned Col. Killian because "his internet connection was on the fritz and he couldn't IM me."
Lt. Bush apparently wanted to talk about "how he can get out of coming to drill from now through November."
According to Col. Killian's email, the young Bush wanted to go to Alabama to work as webmaster for a Republican candidate's website.
Mr. Rather said the authenticity of the 32-year-old email has been confirmed by several Nigerian officials who specialize in electronic funds transfer by email.
I'm not sure, but I think I want the translation of that.
Holy cow! Whoever did this hatchet job,was a lousy forger,who was SO clumsy,that debunking it is proving to be easy and a great "game"! CBS was so damned stupid! LOL
Have you ever??
Has old media always been this sloppy?
Laughing out loud rolling on floor almost peeing in my pants reaching for inhaler.
Check out the Scrappleface above. LOL
Isn't this hysterical? :-)
LOL (cough!)
Damn, what a catch, and thank GOD for Bloggers like Big Trunk of Powerline.
It's this kind of reporting that keeps me coming back to Free Republic!!!
CBS was certainly stupid. I don't know about the forger....
Key POINT: All documents in my possession (orders, discharge, etc - as signed by ANG officers ALWAYS lists their Rank - FOLLOWED BY TX ANG (that designation is missing feom the CBS documents)
The forger/s too;look at all of the blatant errors! :-)
I'm dying here ... FOFL!!
I believe CBS WAS the forger.
Bush's application, as well as his commission, were handled by then-Col. Walter B. "Buck" Staudt, who said, "Nobody did anything for him…. There was no … influence on his behalf. Neither his daddy nor anybody else got him into the Guard." Staudt, who retired in 1972 as a brigadier general, said Bush was enrolled quickly because there was a demand for pilot candidates.
I thought the memo was from '72.
Talk about useful idiots. Could CBS have done a better job of bending over and grabbing their ankles for whomever set this up?!
I'm not sure what that means, but I'm enjoying this afternoon immensely. Someone needs to keep track of all the proven liberal MSM fraud. We've seen two obvious ones in less than a week!
three memos in 1972 - one memo dated 18 Aug 1973
"Kerry, that stupid gimp bought it! The anointed time is near, the stars are aligning properly, soon the prophesy will unfold..."
Well, it's been speculated about a million times here that Hillary (and her flying monkeys, Terry McAuliffe, et al.) are saboutaging the Kerry campaign ...
D'oh!
You'd have thought the "dubya@yahoo.com" address would have tipped them off.
Makes you wonder doesn't it? Who would have a motive to do such a thing so it would be discovered so easily?
Hillary?
AHHHHH, WOW!!!!!!
Holy crap, Dan looks like a total corrupt A$$!!!
But one thing I do know...I'd never have known about all this to such an extent if it weren't for FR.
God Bless ya, Jim. :-) And to all my FReeper brethren. I may never meet any of you in person, but I am proud to call you friends.
Thank you VRWC....
We need to find out for sure and if they didn't do it .. Where the heck did they get these forged memos
Same here...
I feel the same way.
And for the life of me, I don't understand why Jim won't buy us our own TV station!
I think we earned it. What about everyone else?
Its either Hitlery, or Kerry's camp is so desperate that they are getting that sloppy. Either way, it does serve to expose MSM's bias to a few more people.
