That would make a lot of sense. The memos did not reveal anything we did not know before, but they created an impression of Bush being "victimized" by "liberal" media.
The victimization of the majority and their fuehrer is a common fascist propaganda trick. It featured prominently in the Nazi anthem "Die Fahne Hoch" http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/horstwessel.html where victimization and liberation from misery are the leading motifs:
[translation] Flag high, ranks closed, The S.A. marches with silent solid steps. Comrades shot by the red front and reaction march in spirit with us in our ranks.
The street free for the brown battalions, The street free for the Storm Troopers. Millions, full of hope, look up at the swastika; The day breaks for freedom and for bread.
For the last time the call will now be blown; For the struggle now we all stand ready. Soon will fly Hitler-flags over every street; Slavery will last only a short time longer.
In the same vein, Milosevic propaganda used images of "Serb oppression" (a dominant group in x-Yugoslavia) to mobilize for 'action.'
The fake Bush memo debacle seem to serve the same purpose - it introduces already known and not so damaging information in an easily refutable form, followed by the right-wing mobilization to close ranks and defend the Fuehrer from the smear attacks by liberal media or Kerry operatives. Very clever, indeed.
