CBS Guard Documents Traced to Tex. Kinko's
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A24635-2004Sep15_2.html



"In a related development, White House press secretary Scott McClellan hinted that more documents regarding Bush's National Guard service may soon be released. Asked whether officials in the White House have seen unreleased documents, McClellan called that "a very real possibility." Other officials with knowledge of the situation said more documents had indeed been uncovered and would be released in the coming days."

What are these documents that McClellan says will be released??? Didn't he tell us back in the spring that all documents had been released???

What do you think they will be? If this has been cussed and discussed, forgive me for I know not what I do. :bounce:

2. They have told us five times now that all the docs have been released
Starting to sound like a broken record.

3. For those who don't want to register,
and for those who are afraid of bugmenot.com, the story is mainly about the fact the documents were faxed from a 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, or to explain how the documents came to light after more than three decades.

    There is only one Kinko's in Abilene, and it is 21 miles from the Baird, Tex., home of retired Texas National Guard officer Bill Burkett, who has been named by several news outlets as a possible source for the documents.

    Robert Strong, who was one of three people interviewed by "60 Minutes," said he was shown copies of the documents by CBS anchor Dan Rather and producer Mary Mapes on Sept. 5, three days before the broadcast. He said at least one of the documents bore the faxed header "Kinko's Abilene."

5. Just because someone sent the copies from
Abilene doesn't make the contents false, does it? So do the bushies have other documents that they are going to release? That's my question. If so, then they lied earlier when they said all documents had been made public. Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure, they have. All except those that have been destroyed.


I hope someone who saw all of those documents in the trash can has them all stashed away for next month's October surprise!!

4. What documents will be released? - Forgeries!
Unless they can prove otherwise. That's the standard now. They must have not only the documents but the typewriter they were written on, the person that wrote them and at least two eye wittinesses. Oh and don't forget DNA samples from all concerned.

6. I'm willing to forget about the documents, fake or not
if the White House will explain why Bush refused to take his medical exam, subsequently lost his wings, and failed to serve his commitment.
