    Forgery? What Forgery?

    Okay... got this link from a co-worker.

    We all read about the forgery thing going on with Boston Globe... we'll here's some more information about the screw up

    PowerLine Blog

    Document in Question

    The nice touch is definetly the lower/small "th" used in the unit number. And personally, I've never once seen a military memo that was drafted on plain white paper. Somewhere there was some sort of form number, or revision number, or even a box outlining the page. Never just a sheet of paper. You know it was a bleeding heart liberal that typed up the forgery, having never served their country, how would they have known how fake their 'authentic' document looked.

    Sort of makes you wonder what sorts of things they were able to slip by us before blogs existed to call them on it.

    Military Memos are notoriously written in the third person.

    Now only two questions remain: Is it human error or a weaselish attempt by the media to smear Bush?

    How exactly could it be human error, Richie?

    We shouldn't be focusing on the documents themselves but the story here people! Ignore that man behind the curtain!

    I wouldn't be suprised if CBS themselves forged it, if it is infact forged.
