Here's a lefty site which is discussing this AFM 35-13
and which is dated AUGUST 11, 2004. One month ago.
So the lefties have known of these documents for some time?

Again, dating from August 10, 2004.

The lefties have been shopping this one around
awhile. . . ?

Jeepers sh*t.

No wonder people at CBS were Nervous.


PS. Anyone know how to grab copies of those sites in case they suddenly disappear down the memory hole?

And look. I just Googled another site, quoting this,
from FEBRUARY 2004.

http://billhobbs.com/hobbsonline/003279.html

What is going on here?

And another site from
Feb 13, 2004.
http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/mt/mt-comments.cgi?entry_id=3261

This one has the following text:
Chris,

Yeah, this aspect of the story may die. But the media has a sense right now that there's stuff in the records that Bush doesn't want people to see, and they'll continue to follow that thread.

This document got posted over at Atrios's site, and it has a couple of interesting things. First of all, there was another guy (James Bath) who got suspended the month after Bush for refusing to take his physical. He's been linked to Bush before, but what interested me was this bit:

"Off[icer] will comply with para 2-1, AFM 35-13. Authority: Para 2-29m, AFM 35-13."

Anyone know what this means? I assume it has something to do with the regulations they violated, but googling on the reference (and I also tried assuming that it means Air Force Manual) turned up nothing.

Notice the following:

1) they had the same questions about the manual
2) Atrios's is a hypertext link-I'll look there
3) linked to Bush is a hypertext link;

I believe I saw in one of the other sites whose URL
I just posted, that JAMES BATH [see above] was supposedly suspended at the same time as Bush.

Will look a bit deeper and send in more info. . .

This is one of the hypertext links from my last post.

It apparently makes reference to the mysterious
AFM 35-13 (about 1/3 of the way down).

The other link in the previous article takes you to
http://www.onlinejournal.com/Special_Reports/Hatfield-R-091901/hatfield-r-091901.html

dating from July, 2001, apparently trying to link
Bush to BCCI and Osama bin Laden. (tin foil hats,
or just axes to grind?) Note the following quote:

(Interestingly, both Dubya and Bath were both suspended from flying in August and September 1972, respectively, for "failure to accomplish annual medical examination.")


THIS WAS PRE 9-11 and on a lefty site. Could this be why
Rather is so insistent the facts are accurate, and
the forgeries don't matter?
