As my friend Mike would put it, my favorite ‘fish-wrapper’, The Boston Globe, decided to run like the wind with a story which apparently proved that some of Bush’s military files were concocted recently – and then made to appear as if they were written in the 1970’s.
The jist is this: Accusations of forgery can be proven because certain documents were printed with “proportionally spaced fonts” that did not come into use “for office memos until the introduction of laser printers, word processing software, and personal computers. They were not widespread until the mid to late 90’s.” Clutch the pearls!
What a scandal. This changes everything. In fact, Katharine Q. Seelye from Free Republic goes a step further: “I am saying these documents are forgeries, run through a copier for 15 generations to make them look old. This should be pursued aggressively.” That’s quite an accusation, Ms. Seelye, but it sounds like you’ve done your homework and unearthed a real administration-killer here.
That is if IBM hadn’t actually introduced the proportionally spaced typewriter in 1941.
Keep digging, kids. You’ve got, oh, 54 days left until November 2nd.
More lies concocted to cover up for a prolific liar. Will you move back to Canada when he gets bounced? Your Concord roots are showing themselves in this election.
In a word, yes. Right after the curse of the Bambino is overturned, pigs fly and you find Jimmy Hoffa whilst renovating the stairs in your new house.
Your Concord roots? Ohhhh, that old “rich people are Republicans” canard. Remember, the richest states in the union are always New York, California, New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts–all dyed-in-the-wool Republican states, right? And like all those rich Hollywood folks who are stumping for Bush…
So how about Concord voters in 2000? 66% combined for Gore and Nader…Bush a paltry 33%. But perhaps you are suggesting that Dave is Kerry man?
whilst this!
No – if Dave was a US citizen… he would definitely waste his vote on Nader.

I’d vote for Dubya. In a heartbeat. I hope he reads my blog (stranger things have happened) cause I’ll get my citizenship a lot faster. It’s quite a process.
So George, if you’re reading this, if you make me a citizen in the next 46 days you can count on my vote. Also, my roomate does the Kerry sister’s hair (true), so if you want me to do some CIA sneak-some-acid-into-the-hairspray-can shit we should talk.
And give Jenna my email address.
