I think he is sorry to their one remaining listener for having to wade through their tripe.

They are covering for eachother. Burkett will STFU and CBS will not claim the original source ...

unless you can hack into Burkett's computer, no telling if he did it or someone else.

LOL! I saw some of that drivel they're peddling over there, too. Truly a deranged band of loonies post at that benighted little cesspool of a site.
Now that I've been over there and walked through some of that bilge, it's time to hit the showers to get cleaned off!...LOL

Texans for Truth, Max Cleland, Robin Rather, & Ben Barnes are among the top perpetrators. This Blathering idiots made fools of themselves once again. Don't forget to turn the lights out on your way out the door, Dan!

"We made a mistake in judgment, and for that I am sorry," Rather added.

Rather apologized for his "mistake in judgment". he has NOT apologized to President Bush for besmirching him. Rather has not appologized for intentionally attempting to mislead the public and influence a presidential election based on forged documents that he KNEW were fake (CBS's own people told Dan that they were not real).

CBS has IN NO WAY adequately responded to their partisan attempt to inappropriately interfere with a presidential election. Until CBS CLEARLY admits their failings, CBS should continue to have their feet held to the fire.

"Meanwhile, a federal judge has ordered the Pentagon to find and make public by next week any unreleased files about Mr. Bush's Vietnam-era Air National Guard service to resolve a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by the Associated Press."

Has anyone done a FOIA request for sKerry's records. If not why not??

This one leads straight back to the Dems- take your pick as to which one(s).

Like James Taranto said, there's as much evidence of DNC involvement in this as the evidence connecting the Swift Boat vets to the Bush campaign. Wanna bet on whether the NY Times will write about the connections as aggressively?

Lets see: Senator Harkins you owe our president a major apology,

Terry Mcaulif needs a major whoop ass.

Thanks to Dan Blather for proving how biased the media is.

He was like a dog in heat on this story, damn the facts, damn the truth. He should be fired.

The family of the deceased Air Guard in all of this should sue Rather, CBS, and that Creep that gave Rather the fake documents.

Burkett needs to be arrested. This is a federal offense according to "The Abrams Report" on MSNBC. He could get 10 years in prison and a fine.

SOMEONE NEEDS TO FILE CHARGES.

I watched Dan's newscast and didn't hear an apology to the man he tried to smear.

So Dan is on TV saying, "I'm sorry." NOT ENOUGH! I want to hear Danny boy say, "Mr. President, I am sorry." Then I want to hear the same from Sen. Harkin

I suppose they think we are going to take this lightly. I advise them to think again.

Carl Cameron said today that kerry and his campaign have been hinting at the big cbs story about Bush that was coming out. Sounds like collusion to me.

This is a crime. If the crime is allowed to stand it will be validated.

What they really meant was
"It was a mistake to underestimate Buckhead and the rest of those damn pajama wearing partisan political operatives."

"Who did Burkett get the documents from??? Gee Dan, now there's a story for ya."

And Dan, who told you that Burkett had those documents, was it perhaps a certain ex senator whose name begins with C?
