Dan Rather on Reddit: No one proved
that Bush documents were forged

Washington Examiner [DC], by Charlie Spiering

Original Article

Posted By:StormCnter, 2/9/2013 5:11:37 AM

On a Reddit AMA (Ask me anything) yesterday, former CBS broadcaster Dan Rather (Now with AXS-TV) was understandably asked a question about ‘Rathergate’ – the story on George W. Bush’s service in the Air National Guard that used forged documents in the report. Rather responded brusquely: Number 1 – the facts of case are not in dispute. Number 2 – no one had ever established that the documents were forged (those who attack them argued that we didn’t do enough to demonstrate that they were not forged) The whole documents argument

Rather can´t let go of this. The way he looks at it the forged docs have no meaning because he knows Bush skipped out on NG duty.

When Kerry got back from Vietnam he was still an active duty reservist who never showed up for camp but I´m sure that doesn´t bother Rather one bit.

Bush was probably foolish when he was younger,like most people are but he put all that behind him when he quit drinking and became a practicing Christian.. Of course there´s no such thing as redemption for a conservative but there is for an animal abuser like Micheal Vick.

Baloney. Within 48 hrs. the guy at Little Green Onions produced the "Throbbing Memo", which showed that the Bush Texas Air National document purporting to be from c. 1972 was actually typed using a Microsoft Word program. The bogus document had the same letter justification, pixel for pixel. When overlayed and "throbbed" the TANG document and the newly typed Microsoft Word copy were identical.

Within hardly more than a day or two after the CBS documents were posted on the blog Little Green Footballs, responding experts, including topographers, font experts and a retired AF officer who, for almost 30 years, had been in charge of how AF documents were to be written, had decimated Rather´s "evidence." And, soon after, when CBS was forced to acknowledge from whom it had gotten these documents, it turned out to be -- surprise, surprise -- a Texan with a long history of scurrilous attacks on the Bush family. In his recent denial, Rather has once again proven the old adage: Being a lefty means never having to say you´re sorry.

BTW, #4. Not sure Kerry had any obligation to report to a Reserve meeting. Technically, every enlistment is for 6 years and one is considered active reserve until that time period ends. Let´s just stick with him being an exploitive, lying sack of s..t.

Times New Roman. It is extremely unlikely that any Air National Guard office in 1972 had a typewriter with that typeface. But because he so wanted it to be true, Rather was taken in by it. Which just shows what a hateful old coot he is.

It does not matter what Bush did or did not do.
This was a case of the MSM trying to change the dynamics of the presidential election. For golly sakes, Clinton led protests against the USA, Gore was a complete phony, Kerry was a Coward that shopped around for purple hearts and only served about 11 weeks in Nam. Obama is a smoker, toker and dealer. He also hates the military and never served.
None of this mattered to the MSM.

Good article. The expert testimony is a well deserved ´Thwap´ and can´t be delivered often enough.

Especially delicious is the fact (not in the article) that the only reason the forgery was exposed was Bush´s transparency. He issued standing orders in the WH that any military docs would be immediately posted on his WH web site. When the ´TANG Docs´ were submitted to the WH, they were immediately available to all... including experts like this. Funny how well that worked.

a brief review of the "docuMENTS" that led to Rather´s firing from CBS news.

Mary Mapes (Dan Rather´s producer at CBS news) obtained these "documents" from Bill Burkett (more about him next). Ms Mapes then offered these "documents" to the John Kerry Presidential Campaign, along with writing Rather´s report on them.

Bill Burkett has admitted to lying about the origin of the memos eventually claiming that he received the Killian documents from a woman calling herself "Lucy Ramirez." Burket is a nut job with a on-line rant published about how evil Bush was.

Lucy Ramirez has never been seen or heard from (if she ever existed). Burket purported received a phone call from her (why she called him, who knows) where she offered him the Killian documents. The documents were either delivered by a unnamed middle ma, or delivered by Ramirez in a supermarket parking lot. In order to protect Ramirez from being traced as the source of the memos through DNA on the documents, Burkett then burned the original documents after making copies of them, according to Burkett.

You cannot make this stuff up...

Rather is senile. Does anyone under the age of 50 even know who he is anymore?

A liberal keeps repeating the lie, even in the face of facts. They know people will forget the facts, IF they keep repeating the lie. Someone needs to simply call him a liar to his face, but unfortunately ´liar´ doesn´t have the sting it used to.

How America Lost
Its Four Great Generals
Commentary Magazine, by Max Boot    Original Article
Posted By: StormCnter- 4/7/2013 3:01:19 PM     Post Reply
The quasi-official ideology of the U.S. armed forces holds that generals are virtually interchangeable, that individual personalities don’t matter much, that ordinary grunts are in any case more important than their leaders, and that what really counts are larger systems that make a complex bureaucracy function. There is some truth to all of this. But for all of the bureaucratic heft of the services and the heroism of ordinary soldiers, it is hard to imagine the Civil War having been won without Grant, Sherman, and Sheridan—or World War II without Marshall, Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley, Arnold, LeMay, Nimitz, Halsey,

FORT WORTH -- For 21/2 years, Germain Gardea kept his wives in the dark. The 38-year-old flight instructor spent weekdays in Arlington with his first wife, Jennifer Saldivar, and their young son. On weekends, he left town for his job as an instructor at a flight school, residing in Grapevine with his second wife, Leslie Gardea, who traveled during the week. To keep the women from finding out about each other, he created fake divorce documents on the Internet and filed his first wife´s taxes, marking her as single without her knowledge.

The Supreme Court could soon end one of the federal government´s most archaic practices. Since the 1930s, the Agriculture Department has turned California raisin growers into pawns of its Raisin Administrative Committee, which can commandeer up to half of the farmer´s crop and then pay them little or nothing for the product. Marvin Horne, a 67-year-old raisin farmer in Fresno, Calif., was fined almost $700,000 for refusing to surrender control of much of his harvest to the government committee in 2002. Horne, who has been growing raisins for more than 40 years,

Historian James Thomas Flexner referred to George Washington as "the indispensable man." Americans all know he was a general, but have you ever wondered what grade of general? How many stars did Gen. Washington have? In today´s Army, a one-star general is a brigadier; two stars is a major general; three stars is a lieutenant general; four stars is just plain general. During World War II, Congress created the five-star general, the modern rank of general of the Army. There had been an earlier grade that was called general of the Army,

Meanwhile, many of South Korea’s youth were worried about something else.

Since the Shermans of General Patton´s Third Army crossed the Rhine on March 22, 1945, there have been American tanks in Germany. No more, as John Vandiver of Stars and Stripes reports. The U.S. Army’s 69-year history of basing main battle tanks on German soil quietly ended last month when 22 Abrams tanks, a main feature of armored combat units throughout the Cold War, embarked for the U.S. The departure of the last M-1 Abrams tanks coincides with the inactivation of two of the Army’s Germany-based heavy brigades.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank
