7. What difference does it make if it's true ?
Let's just say it came from him anyway. When has the truth ever bothered Rove and his gang. I say we pin it on him no matter where it came from

10. As many have pointed out,
in this whole mess, he's the only one with a clear motive to forge the docs.

IF they're forged, that is.

21. It's from Dem Operatives trying to counterspin the story before Rove
puts it back on us...Buzzflash site has it up. I think Skinner was trying to warn us that Dems would fight back with their own spin,just in case they are "forgeries" which I still believe they aren't, but WaPo and others keep ramming it home that no typewriter could type those documents so they are fake. :shrug:

Saw something about it on Buzzflash.
Didn't have time to read the article though. Think I will now.

20. Its from a reader contributer from Dem site...saying it could be Rove
dirty trick to make it look bad for Dems or discredit the story. Problem is the person sort of swallows the WAPO line that typewriters couldn't do proportional font...so WA PO could be the Rove leaker who is now getting us Dems all in a tizzy, when in fact we know that proportional font did exist and our own DU'er Tahiti Nut just posted his documents from 1969 when he served that look like MS word.

13. P.S. I go with the Skinner theory...
...that even if they are (which I'm actually not convinced of yet), it doesn't reflect on us because the opposition is the only one that gains from that.

4. It certainly fits his 'style'
Edited on Wed Sep-15-04 02:08 PM by Rick Myers
Don't forget his bugging of his own office in 1986.

He wants ANYTHING to keep the focus off 1000+ US dead, 10,000+ US wounded, the 10 or 12 thousand Iraqi civilian dead and the fact that the power grid in Iraq is offline!!!

edit: typo

6. What forgeries?
Has this been definitively determined? No? Then kindly keep it in the realm of speculation.

11. Well, IF they are found to be forgeries
it's KKKRove who's behind them. This is soooooooo KKKRovian, it's not even funny. He may have pulled his last dirty trick.

14. So they're real docs and real sentiments but forged/leaked by Rove?
I guess that makes sense, downplay the content of a real doc by releasing a forged doc with the same info. Gets the whores talking about the document instead of the content.

16. IF Rove did, that means that ROVE has the originals and had these
forgeries made to discredit the entire story. Just as he did with the late author of Fortunate Son-- Rove gave him the coke story, knowing that they had the info to discredit the author when he proceeded with the book.

18. NOT forgeries ... Rather to Bush "Answer The Questions" ... NYO

Dan Rather To Bush: ‘Answer The Questions’



Sep 15, 2004
by Joe Hagan

snip

"With respect: answer the questions," said Dan Rather, the CBS News anchor. He was asking a direct question to President George W. Bush, his re-election campaign and his political allies in the press and on the Web. "We’ve heard what you have to say about the documents and what you’ve said and what your surrogates have said, but for the moment, answer the questions.

...
Mr. Rather said that he was sure that the credibility of CBS News would hold up after the memo scandal had passed.

"I think over the long haul, this will be consistent with our history and our traditions and reputation," he said. "We took heat during the McCarthy time, during Vietnam, during civil rights, during Watergate. We haven’t always been right, but our record is damn good."

24. The concept has been mentioned here numerous times.
First, prove they're forgeries.
