Well, at this point I am just totally convinced that the CBS memos are fake. "Forged, but accurate" just doesn't cut it for me. "Six documents, and we ruled out two as fakes?" Come on! What's left to figure out?
Where the documents came from. (Hat tip to INDC, and the Washington Post). INDC has apparently contacted the Kinko's there, to make sure that their security tapes for that day aren't erased.
Now, I can't pretend to have been paying a lot of attention to the last few Presidential campaigns, but this race strikes me as being particularly freaky. Are there no places where Bush can be legitimately criticized? Is this election really coming down to stuff that happened over thirty years ago? This is crazy. While the Mainstream Media is burning itself in effigy with fake memos, the Kerry campaign is continuing to focus on differences in two men from thirty years ago, as though they were both trees that continued to inexorably grow in their respectively skewed paths. What about the last four years? Are there no legitimate issues there? Has Bush really done such an incredible job?
If forged memos and the recollections of partisan secretaries are such an important story, maybe he has. Goodness knows, we haven't had much in the way of scandal over the last four years. No Iran-Contra, or Lewinsky style breakdowns that we know of. No Whitewater. Maybe he was derilict in his duty thirty years ago. At this point, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt that IF he was that irresponsible back then, he may have changed. I'm willing to give that same benefit of the doubt to Kerry. But, in the immortal words of Wayne Campbell, "Move into now!"
