"Mine is that it is clear to me that CBS (it is obvious now it is not just Rather) conspired with the DNC and the Kerry campaign to present this fraud to the American public."

I was once asked why I hated Clinton so badly. I said "Because he likes to get caught in his mistakes. A president who likes to get caught looks weak. It invites attacks from bullies, and our enemies. And in a world with nukes, a President can't afford to enjoy getting caught."

I was viewed as being rather kookish for saying that. That was the Spring of 1992, April, when the reporters were giving a free pass to clinton after the draft letter suddenly 'surfaced' after all those months of Clinton denying it.

CBS, Rather, wanted to get caught. It is too obivious. The question is why. Who gets hurt, really hurt by this. In the end, KERRY. That's my point.

Nope. I don't think so. It's just bravado. The arrogance of believing he is untouchable.

As for Burkett I agree with the basic consensus here. Burkett is a patsy, a smokescreen. The source of the forgeries is elsewhere.

No, they didn't. It is not obvious. It is obvious they thought they wouldn't get caught.

BTW, if you think Kerry is some unwitting pawn in this, guess again. He is pushing this story and is involved himself. Not a victim of the Clinton machinations.
