About That IBM Selectric Composer

Here’s more on the IBM machine that the DNC machine is trying to say could have created the Bush National Guard documents in 1972/1973, from DefeatJohnJohn.com, where they are offering a substantial reward to anyone who can duplicate the CBS memos:
First of all, thanks to the five people who have each pledged $100 a piece in addition to my $10,000 offering. Therefore, anyone who can reasonably recreate the CBS memos on equipment available in early 1972 will be receiving at least $10,500.
Two people so far have attempted to claim the prize on the basis that the IBM Selectric Composer was a proportionally-spaced font typewriter available at that time (though not yet in wide use). In fact, even CBS News is apparently going on the air tonight with “evidence” that this model and several other typewriters of the day could even do super- or sub-script characters.
Yet the IBM Selectric Composer’s own manual makes superscripting of the type seen in the CBS forgeries impossible.
Come on, all you lefty bloggers trying to deny that these documents are forgeries! Here’s your chance to pay off your credit cards like Markos Zuniga!
