If the memos were forged ...were the "originals" more invective?
Edited on Thu Sep-16-04 05:48 AM by Iceburg
"You didn't type these memos?" Rather asked Knox on camera.

She replied, "It's not the form I would have used and there are words in there that belong to the Army, not the Air Guard. We never used those terms."

Ms. Knox denies typing "those" memos however states that the core of the information in them is correct. She states that Killian did write a memo "like that", but went on to say "Its seem that somebody did see those memos and then tried to reproduce and maybe changed them enough so that he wouldn't get in trouble over it -- could deny it."

Were the "originals" more invective? Or is trying to recall adverbatim a document from 32 years a bit of a stretch for any mind on this planet? Did RoveInc replace the original with a censured less castigating memo?

What is your interpretation of those specific remarks by Ms. Knox?

1. And the Times article today
is slanted so that almost all they talk about is the memos are forged, so CBS is wrong. A brief mention of the content, but that's it. I'm sure this was done on purpose by Rove & Co to discourage us from fighting. We should all just stay at home election day and cry--yeah, right. NO ONE I know is talking about this story; folks around my neck of the woods look on Bush as a privledged SOB who's literally gotten away with murder. They see Bush's policies as failures and fear that if he stays in office we'll have continual war and no hope for the future.
