Don't know if it's been posted before, but check out some of Burkett's writing about Bush:

Lost within a short time will be the name Saddam; for like Osama, he was never the purpose of this campaign. Never in the history of the world has a great society survived whenever its focus was allowed to magnetize to its most powerful. And here we will clearly have in view that there is little value accorded to the innocent 3-year-old Iraqi girl who will today be playing in the streets, or the 19-year-old soldier who will launch the missile that will kill her. What do you do?  Watching the sunrise on a beautiful morning, I used to feel hope. Before my illness, I felt exhilaration at the prospects of the day. After my illness, I felt hope that I might work hard to live. Now I feel sickness that today another massive group of people, held worthless by this anointed king, will be trampled upon like grapes. But their blood will not be rendered into wine. It will be spilled into the sands of this desert or another, or on the streets of Washington, or in the halls of the US Congress, or in the courts.

Rest of the screed is here.

It's quite long and disjointed, but gives you a view into his mind.

The guy is borderline schizo. When this kind of writing gets coupled with Dan's "unimpeachable source" CBS is in trouble.

This guy actually sounds rather dangerous.
