Mike, that is exactly what I am saying. I don't think Bush or his team DIRECTED anyone, anymore than they directed the swift boat people. But the Republican side has done a much better job of creating distrust of Kerry, and clouding the issues that would create distrust in Bush.
This memo is perfect. The world is all so worried now about Dan Rather... everyone seems to have forgotten that if this document is a forgery (looks like it) then there are still huge questions about Bush's guard duty. But because of the way this has been run out, everyone stopped looking at the issue and starting looking at Rather.
I would suspect it was shopped around to everyone, and CBS / Rather were the first takers. They bit, ran with it, and now they have had it blow up on them. Either way, the makers of the document win:
1 - If accepted 100%, it clears Bush of any issues regarding his duty, and
2 - if proven fake, the explosion takes out SOMEONE ELSE (in this case Rather), and that corpse becomes the story, not the military record.
The issue is defused to about 99%.
Amazing move.
