Rather holds firm, despite further evidence...

Dan Rather held his ground about the veracity of the Bush ANG documents despite further evidence that it is all BS. Now it turns out that the officer, Col. Walter "Buck" Staudt, who according to one of the memos was exerting pressure on other officers to "sugar coat" Bush's records, had retired a year and a half before the memo was written. Of course that means he had zero power and authority to exert pressure on anyone in the military.

Now that Mr. Rather has stood by the documents, it will really spell trouble if they turn out to be false. If they do turn out to be false, in my opinion Dan Rather should resign.

It should be easy to clear up. Find some documents typed by these same people during the same time period that are known to be legit and do a comparison. If they are real then so be it, black eye for Bush. If not, heads should roll.
