It is not to be unexpected from conspiracy theorists who believe any half-baked tale that happens to emerge from the sewers of gossip.<br /><br />The press went over both the letters from both Obama's and Palin's doctors. They both were quickly verified as accurate, hence the reason no questions about their legitmacy.<br /><br />What you people would presuppose is that Sarah Palin (or her cohorts)released a forged letter and then silenced her doctor. Now the question I would ask is, what evidence is there for this?<br /><br />The basic journalistic process ensures some level of vetting in every news story. It is the process of gathering data, determining its truthfulness, and then releasing the story to the public at large. It is the same method used throughout the press in order to provide the most accurate information to the public. Does the media live up to that standard all the time? No. However, this is not one of those times.<br /><br />You are not going to disprove an official medical letter from a doctor with nothing more than a possible clerical error made by a person who is not an expert in Microsoft Word.<br /><br />Really, if this is the best you folks have, then truly I am laughing.

You can go on ad nauseum about how the letter is suspicous, but that doesn't make it a forgery. It was released by the McCain campaign to all the major media outlets. The press has no interest in releasing a forged document and hurting their credibility, so they would do some basic scrutiny to determine its legitmacy. It is the same way with other stories. For example, Obama's note from his doctor. The fact that it was released by the press to the people guarantees a level of authenticity to that note. <br /><br />The burden of proof is on you to prove the Sarah Palin letter is a forgery.
