Powerline says that the documents used by the
Boston Globe to discredit the President's NG service are forgeries, and provided evidence to support that conclusion:
"..............Every single one of the memos to file regarding Bush's failure to attend a physical and meet other requirements is in a proportionally spaced font, probably Palatino or Times New Roman. In 1972 people used typewriters for this sort of thing (especially in the military), and typewriters used mono-spaced fonts./snip/
I am saying these documents are forgeries, run through a copier for 15 generations to make them look old. This should be pursued aggressively......................"
Update: see one of the
documents yourself and form your own opinion - based on my knowledge of the military in that period, it is unquestionably a forgery.
Update 2:
LGF has more visual and analytical information:
".........I opened Microsoft Word, set the font to Microsoft’s Times New Roman, tabbed over to the default tab stop to enter the date “18 August 1973,” then typed the rest of the document purportedly from the personal records of the late Lieutenant Colonel Jerry B. Killian.
And my Microsoft Word version, typed in 2004, is an exact match for the documents trumpeted by CBS News as “authentic.”............."
