7. Same font, same spacing, perhaps same typewriter?
It was leaked by the Rovarians, right?

6. I've ran this story at my Group
Anti-CNP, I've also forwarded it to other groups, so if you are in an Anti-Bush Yahoo! Group, look out for something about this, and spread the word even more.

9. There has NEVER been any rational, factual doubt ...
... that the typewriters of the day were quite capable of producing EXACTLY the kind of document as the Killian memos. EVERY spurious and specious claim to the contrary is an OUTRIGHT FRAUD.

I find this smearing and obfuscation of the contextual FACTS to be completely reprehensible.

Consider ...
If, within a day or two, either CBS or Burkett were able to produce a typewriter capable of producing such a memo ... then CATCH-22!!! The smear and deceit peddlers would immediately claim that typewriter was, itself, the one used to create the "fraudulent" memos.

The real thematic issue is that LYING and FRAUD are the shopworn tools of the brown-shirted defenders of a war criminal and coWard who calls himself the "President" and a corrupt cabal who regards him as a "useful fool" and frontman. It is beyond any kind of rational thought that this is not an orchestrated strategy: total abdication of any kind of integrity, all in the pursuit of defrauding the nation.

13. Anyone else having trouble loading the story on blue lemur?

It flashes up and then goes black - all I can see is the accompanying photo, and refreshing the page doesn't help.

Edit: spelling
