I Couldn't See 60 Minutes Last Nite
It was put on at about 12.00 (midnite) and a really bad health show was put on in its place.

What is going on?

4. I saw a little of it ...
In a nutshell: Killian's secretary says she didnt recall typing THAT particular memo ... BUT

She KNOWS Killian didnt like what Bush was doing (denying direct orders to report for his physical) and also going over his head to try to circumvent his orders ....

She said Bush was 'resented' by the other TANG members who felt he was full of hot air and bluster, and yet shirked his duty whenever possible ...

(that is all paraphrased) ...

What she does: is she provides a HUMAN face to the memos: "Yes: the memoes may or may NOT be real: BUT: That is how Killian felt about Bush, and the language in the memos reflects the TRUE FEELINGS of Killian at that time ....

That is it in a nutshell .... She was a good witness ....

6. I thought she was hinting at the most plausible explanation...
that the memos were recreated by someone who SAW the REAL memos, but changed some details to protect their own butt when releasing it. (that's paraphrasing). But I caught the gleam in her eye when she said it.
I am guessing the original memo had another NG officer's name on it being upset with Bush, and the recreated memos leave out that person's name, and that person is who shared the memos with CBS.

The important thing to remember is she said SHE did not type those particular memos, but she did type the exact same memos, content-wise back then. To me, this renders moot whether these memos are legit, because she is telling us there ARE or WERE legit memos at one time that she typed herself.
Be aware that the WH is spinning us away from that truth.
