Bill Clinton was giving advice to Kerry from his bedside at the hospital. Kerry has recently hired on many aides close to Clinton. Soon after that, CBS on 60 Minutes II has come up with a “memo” from supposedly, Bush’s commanding officer from 1973 saying that Bush was shirking his duties and he is being pressured to sugar-coat his record. This “memo” has been quickly debunked as a complete fraud but CBS stands by it authenticity. It was obviously done on Microsoft Word and ran through a copier for several generations to give the appearance of it being old. The “th” for numbers like 111th was superscript as is automatically done with Microsoft Word, but couldn’t be done with the typewriters of 1973, and one of the officers discussed had retired a year before. A reproduction written on Word superimposes exactly. Internet bloggers had quickly picked up on these errors. Now my post isn’t to discuss the memo itself, but…..
Do you think Bill Clinton, whose wife has definitely ruled out presidential runs in 2004 and 2012, would purposely give Kerry bad advice so he would lose? Would Clinton’s aides, such as James Carville, “unearth” this document and make it fake enough to be easily discovered as a fraud in order to sink the Kerry campaign? So would it be wise for Kerry to rely on Clinton and his aides so much, in lieu of Hillary's ambitions?
