MORE ON THE FORGED(?) DOCUMENTS
Atrios finds proportional fonts in 1941.

Rising Hegemon finds a superscript "th" in another Texas Air National Guard document.

The personnel chief in Killian's unit says "They looked to me like forgeries. I don't think Killian would do that, and I knew him for 17 years." Killians wife and son also doubt the documents are authentic. "It just wouldn't happen," he said. "No officer in his right mind would write a memo like that."

CBS went from being convinced of their authrenticity to saying only that its expert was convinced.

Killian's wife "just can't believe these are his words" and says he'd "be turning over in his grave to know that a document such as this would be used against a fellow guardsman." In fact, she says that her husband thought Bush "was an excellent aviator, an excellent person to be in the guard and was very happy to have him become a member of the 111th". She also says her husband didn't type.

Killian's daughter says that her father "admired George Bush and was proud of the fact that he pinned his [flying] wings on him."

Spectator Online says the docs may have been provided to CBS by the Kerry campaign, but not created by them. See Powerline since Spectator is down.

Drudge says CBS is launching an internal investigation.

A member of Bush's guard unit says that General Standt, who allegedly pressured Killian to be favorable, was retired at the time.

National Review notices substantive inconsistencies in the CBS documents and other Killian documents from the same time.

The question for CBS now is, Where did you get the documents? If they were from Killian's personal files - and his family knows nothing about them - who had his personal files and why?
