Sorry for all of the sirens, but I think they're all pretty much deserved. Mark tips me to a not-so-shadowy link:
In an Aug. 21 posting, Burkett referred to a conversation with former senator Max Cleland (D-Ga.) about the need to counteract Republican tactics: "I asked if they wanted to counterattack or ride this to ground and outlast it, not spending any money. He said counterattack. So I gave them the information to do it with. But none of them have called me back." Cleland confirmed that he had a two- or three-minute conversation by cellphone with a Texan named Burkett in mid-August while he was on a car ride. He remembers Burkett saying that he had "valuable" information about Bush, and asking what he should with it. "I told him to contact the [Kerry] campaign," Cleland said. "You get this information tens of times a day, and you don't know if it is legit or not."
"There are plenty of things to bag on Cleland about, but being a cripple isn't one of them. Show some class, pls."
I agree.
Based on the article...
Cleland confirmed that he had a two- or three-minute conversation by cellphone with a Texan named Burkett in mid-August
I find it very interesting that he had Cleland's CELL PHONE number. Verrrry Interesting (voice of Artie Johnson on Rowan & Martins Laugh-In)
Though people have stopped posting on this thread, since the question was brought up, I'll add this. Cleland's "Sign My Whiney Petition or I'll Pout" foray was in Crawford on Wed., Aug 25th.
