Hillary's half-vast, left-wing conspiracy
Well done!
I thought about doing the same thing...needs pictures of faces to go with it - plenty of van os with dnc players out there.
Great Charts!
You may need a Cray computer to keep the names and positions of all who were involved.
USA Today is in there somewhere too, with a big question being where they obtained their copies of the Killian forgeries.
Could also add that one of those dem committees held a meeting at the Kinkos where the forgeries were sent.
Nice job!
I bet if we did some digging, we could connect Juanita Yvette Lozano (the mole who did time for supplying Gore's campaign aide with Dubya's debate video back in 2000) with Barnes, et al. She was a precinct chairwoman for the Travis County Democratic Party and formerly worked for both Richards and Rep. Glen Maxey, D-Austin. Her lawyer at the time of her indictment in 2001 was Chris Gunter.

bump for needed info
There's another web of connections - the one that debunked the memos and very quickly tracked the threads of conspiracy between CBS, the DNC, the Kerry Campaign, and all of the other rats.

needs extension to the DNC's "Fortunate Son" campaign that got rolling this past week.
IIRC, somebody on talk radio mentioned that The Boston Globe talked about
this campaign just about the time "Memogate" got rolling.
The timing is too perfect for mere coincidence.
CBS would have wanted more than one source, so fooling CBS may have involved a coordinated action on the part of several individuals. For example, someone like Burkett could have reported to Mapes that Killian complained about pressure to help Bush, or that Bush had disobeyed an order to undergo a medical exam. A second collaborator might have sent the forged memos.
Or maybe Burkett faxed the memos while Burkett's information was simultaneously being spoon-fed to CBS through Democratic back channels. CBS, wishing to believe this negative story about Bush, might have treated the collaborating sources as corroborative. Then CBS on their own initiative might have assembled the other weak collaborating evidence such as the opinions of handwriting experts etc., (which weak corroborative evidence has subsequently collapsed).
There is supposedly a Yahoo board posting by Burkett claiming he gave some information to Cleland by telephone. Cleland according to Burkett was someone overtly wishing to be very aggressive in campaigning against Bush. Suppose Max Cleland went on to pass Burkett's unsubstantiated accusations on to others and the information worked its way back to Mapes through the Democrat grapevine.
On a more constructive note, IMHO the major news organizations would be doing us all a great service if they established improved internal review procedures for the information they report. Even though strategically this story probably plays for Bush in the near term, in the long run this sort of diversion from the political process really doesn't help anyone.
GREAT JOB.
