Questions the LA Times should have asked Bunkhead

[grasswire]

1. When did you first see the Killian documents that were released by the WH?

2. Has anyone who might be considered an agent or employee of the Bush campaign contacted you in the last several months?

Help me think up some questions the press should ask this guy.

[gospelized]

1. it doesn't really matter what they ask him

if he was told to do it by rove himself, he wouldn't say so.

2. Did you conspire to commit fraud?

3. You're giving him way to much credit

[girl gone mad]

4. They've already told him to..

keep his trap shut.

He's a loose cannon. Just look at his FR posts. His only option right now is to not comment on it. He'r probably working behind the scenes to nail down a story.

5. Someone should quiz him on some of the typeface stuff.

See if he can explain what a proportionally spaced font is. Show him some printed pages that are monospaced and some with kerning and ask him to identify which is which. I wonder if he really came up with those ideas himself.

8. Somebody should show *uckhead the Wilkipedia page on IBM Selectric

and then ask him more about his typewriter knowledge.

<snip>

The ability to change fonts, combined with the neat regular appearance of the typed page, was revolutionary and marked the beginning of desktop publishing. Later models with selective pitch and built-in correcting tape carried the trend even further. Any typist could produce a polished manuscript. By 1966, a full typesetting version with justification and proportional spacing was released.

6. My questions

would have tried to figure out how this guy knew about proportional fonts and monospaced fonts, the characteristics of Wang computers, typesetting and font spacing, along with the types of typewriters in common usage back in 1972 and the effects of running a copy 15 times through a photocopier all by himself and without someone else telling him this. This guy has a Bachelor of Arts in American Civilization and a Juris Doctor of Law, along with his entire 17-year professional career spent in business litigation.

7. "Have you considered...

changing your name to fuckhead, as it would be more accurate?"
That is what I would have asked.
