Questions Surface About Bush Memos (AP)
09/10/2004 09:28 AMAP - Questions are being raised about the authenticity of newly
unearthed memos which asserted that George W. Bush ignored a direct
order from a superior officer in the Texas Air National Guard and lost
his status as a pilot because he failed to meet military performance
standards and undergo a required physical exam.

Bloggers bust CBS over Bush memos
09/15/2004 01:59 AMOn September 8th, the CBS show 60 Minutes II ran a story bringing to
light which purported to show that when President Bush was in the
National Guard he failed to obey orders. The memos were supposed to
have been written in the early 1970s by a Lieutenant Colonel Jerry B.
Killian. (Who is, as it happens, died in 1984.)
Pretty damning stuff. Just one problem -- there is mounting evidence
collected by the blogosphere that the documents were forgeries. And
not very good forgeries at that. A lot of bloggers are designers and
computer geeks. People who pay attention to things like proportional
spacing, kerning, superscript text and the other features of modern
word processing. Guess what?
A letter by letter comparison of one of the purported memos with a
version typed in Microsoft Word by Charles Johnson at the blog Little
Green Footballs reveals: The spacing is not just similar -- it is
identical in every respect. To hammer his point home Johnson
superimposes the purported memo with his Microsoft Word, typed today
version. Literally 1:1, not even fuzzy, not a letter out of place.
But if that doesn't convince you it was faked, the type in the
document is KERNED. Kerning is the typesetter's art of spacing various
letters in such a manner that they are 'grouped' for better
readability. Word processors do this automatically. NO TYPEWRITER CAN
PHYSICALLY DO THIS. (Example, in the word To, the o comes under the
top of the T or in the word my, the y comes under the m).
Now, unless the government had access to Office 2003 back in the 1970s
(possible explanations include time machine, alien technology, I'm
sure our Area 51 people can come up with ideas) something about that
seems a bit fishy.

to reflect memos her boss wrote and kept in a locked desk drawer.
