So FR is still kryptonite to them. They can't handle it.
Credit the start of the thread!
Good article!
Thanks!
Explain please?
Why doesnt Powerline have a readers comments section along with every post?
Way off topic here...but does anyone know how to re-set regions in DVD's?
Which freepers will continue to provide. We seek the truth, we don't hide from it and we won't settle for anything less.
Ah well, they'll just go the way of the buggy whip makers.

Call me partial, but I think the star of the piece should be FR and Buckhead.
I think the Powerline guys are great and I'm sure Buckhead would want no more attention, but the REAL new powerhouse media is right here, in the form of FR.
Blogs are perusing sites like FR for their posting info, IMO.
Again, Kudos to Scott, John and Paul, two of them homies.
Without Howlin, no Buckhead post, no Powerline follow-up.
And of course, Jim Robinson and his family -- who started this forum and have kept it going through hell and high-water.
FR is true democracy and shows the tidal wave power of many people "working" together. Blogs would be nowhere without forums, and good Blogs grow healthy in in the internet ecology that great Forums such as this one are a major component of.
And TankerKC too -- HIS was the first post and the one that laid down the strongest counter. Why his?
Because a perfect physical forgery COULD have been made. Only TankerKC's argument that the style and content didn't mesh at all with standard practise would hold against more adept forgers.
Gee golly I hope not -- that "scrutiny" is NOTHING. Sixty Minutes has never had anywhere near the scrutiny they needed. They've always been considered as infallible as the Pope on Easter. No scrutiny at all!
To: Howlin
Howlin, every single one of these memos to file is in a proportionally spaced font, probably Palatino or Times New Roman.
In 1972 people used typewriters for this sort of thing, and typewriters used monospaced fonts.
The use of proportionally spaced fonts did not come into common use for office memos until the introduction of laser printers, word processing software, and personal computers. They were not widespread until the mid to late 90's. Before then, you needed typesetting equipment, and that wasn't used for personal memos to file. Even the Wang systems that were dominant in the mid 80's used monospaced fonts.
I am saying these documents are forgeries, run through a copier for 15 generations to make them look old.
This should be pursued aggressively.

And persued agressively, it was!
Say what!?
It is kind of silly that Powerline gets so much more billing. Buckhead hit the nail on the head earlier and in a much more visible forum than Powerline.
LOL! Famous last words!
