Subject: Are memos about Bush's service clumsy forgeries?
The claim has been made on a number of Internet web sites that the
memos CBS News released on Bush' National Guard service are forgeries
-- and clumsy forgeries, created on Microsoft Word. CBS says that it
stands by the authenticity of the documents, and says that they
confirmed them by talking to people who had seen them when they were
written.
A decent summary is at

The really weird thing, if they are forgeries -- and the reduced-size
superscript "th" after numerals is pretty damning -- is that the White
House has not disputed the contents, only the interpretation.
