For everyone still insisting the guard documents are authentic...

Especially those who have blown more hot air about their knowledge of typewriters rather than revealed what model actually produced the documents in question and attacked those of us willing to consider the possibility they were false-

As a progressive liberal, it makes me sad to see that the neocon whores aren't the ONLY ones drinking Kool-Aid.

Just because the document is forged doesn't diminish the fact Bush was AWOL, unfortunately it seems many here miss that point.

CBS anchor Dan Rather acknowledged for the first time yesterday that there are serious questions about the authenticity of the documents he used to question President Bush's National Guard record last week on "60 Minutes."

"If the documents are not what we were led to believe, I'd like to break that story," Rather said in an interview last night. "Any time I'm wrong, I want to be right out front and say, 'Folks, this is what went wrong and how it went wrong.' "

CBS Guard Documents Traced to Tex. Kinko's

Documents allegedly written by a deceased officer that raised questions about President Bush's service with the Texas Air National Guard bore markings showing they had been faxed to CBS News from a Kinko's copy shop in Abilene, Tex., according to another former Guard officer who was shown the records by the network.

The markings provide one piece of evidence suggesting a source for the documents, whose authenticity has been hotly disputed since CBS aired them in a "60 Minutes" broadcast Sept. 8. The network has declined to name the person who provided them, saying the source was confidential
