"That SeeBs is an arm of the DNC, or that the DNC is an arm of SeeBS. It's kind of like a Moebius loop."

No wonder they don't know whether they are coming or going.

"Clinton's fingerprints all over it."

Yeah, and quadruple bypass surgery too. What a great alibi.

Gotta admire the bent one.

According to the imbeciles on Air America, this was all set up by Karl Rove.

Rove's got 'em spooked, that's for sure.

Hell, if he can pull of all this clandestine stuff, maybe he ought to run the CIA!

Wow! Kerry should have kept his swift boat in the calm Boston coastal waters, instead of trying to navigate the North Atlantic of presidential politics. You get the feeling that as soon as the plastic dinghy saw iceberg Burkett, the captain shouted "Full Steam Ahead!"

I Wonder if Kerry had the chance to shout "I'm King of the World" before his campaign started laying down the oil slick.

Oh, and remember, there is no evidence of bias in the media.

In the long run, Mary Mapes loses her job. Dan Rather is portrayed as a "victim", CBS says "sorry" again, and they continue on as usual.

Last week Rush speculated that the docs got to CBS from the DNC via Sandy Berger's pants.

Sure am glad he's on our side, then. :)

LOL

Oh yes the DNC convention photo op with Kerry on the ferry with his "band of brothers" going through Boston Harbor.

Savage called it the big "ship of fools".

hmm .. now this is what you call a rumor .. pure and simple. There is nothing to back this up. Let's not get carried away until there is something more substantial to go on.

"At Burkett's request, we gave his (telephone) number to the campaign," said Betsy West, senior CBS News vice president.

I see your point. The news came from a senior CBS News VP ...

Don't know if this has made it to the thread yet but Tony Blankly said that it is clear that Lockhart is lying when he said he didn't talk to Burkett about the Guard issue. Howard Feinman agreed. Blankly predicted that Lockhart would be fired within 48 to 72 hours.

Looks like your old pal might be going down, kristinn. ;-)

"This goes all the way to Kerry. After losing the election, he may have to resign his Senate seat"

And Romney is a Republican, how cool for Kerry to be tossed out, and a Republican appointed.
