Connell said her late husband would be "turning over in his grave to know that a document such as this would be used against a fellow guardsman," and she is "sick" and "angry" that his name is "being battled back and forth on television." Her late husband was a fan of the young Bush, said Connell, who remarried after her husband died in 1984. "I know for a fact that this young man was an excellent aviator, an excellent person to be in the Guard, and he was very happy to have him become a member of the 111th."
I like this woman. Defending her husband against the media appropriating him for their own agenda, defending the Guard, and defending our honorable President.
They have screwed themselves more than they know. This may forever settle the attacks against Bush's service AND the national Guard, unfairly smeared just because Bush was a member.
Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein will not be interested in running this to ground.
As the honorable judge and great American Sanders Sauls of Floriduh once said during the Gore War... "It's like being nibbled to death by ducks."
Those are not even close!
Did Rather think he would get away with this.
Jennings has been looking to be the bigger name for years.
He had no problem with reporting that the documents may be forged today.
Check out Snakehead and the Forehead. The timing of their entry into the Kerry organization is uncanny.
Some day a book is going to be written about the work that Freepers did on this matter.
Thank you for giving them the opportunity to show Old Media the skills we all expected the media to possess.
CBS/Dan Rather: Your ass is grass!
Old? You're a young 'un. :)
WOO HOO
Thank you both for your instigations.....
He couldn't TYPE!!!! Oh my God!!! Didn't those schmucks do even the most basic research??
This is pretty devastating, since CBS has spun this as being from Killian's personal files!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Connell said Killian did not type,Hmmm....
His son and his wife both dispute CBS. WOW!
Absolutely astounding.
On another note, what do you think of the superscript in this:
The second line has 111th with the superscript th, and was dated 1968. All the rest have 111th with no superscript. They were obviously written on different typewriters at different times, but it obviously was possible to get a superscript in 1968, as these are official docs.
Here's a link to the doc from the records Bush released. see page 3: http://www.usatoday.com/news/bushdocs/9-Miscellaneous.pdf
They can't admit they were fake. The only thing they can do is report the story that "questions are being raised."
Democrats don't resign.
