USA Today Exclusive with Burkett
It is the funniest thing I have ever read. This guy is fregan nuts.
She's A BABE!!!!!!
Lucy Ramirez!
Mmm, just realized, I am not clear if Rather has a son or a daughter, and that picture didn't clear it up at all.
Including the most likely possibility...Burkett's Lucy Ramirez doesn't exist.
---Nah, this guy made this on his own PC. You know I wouldn't even be surprised if he made them at Kinkos.---
That's quite possible I suppose, but something just isn't right here. The fact that the DNC started Operation Favorite Son simultaneously with the Rather report bothers me. The lone nut forger thing is just too pat.
I agree!!!!!!!!
The story is just incredibly damaging to Burkett. He says he BURNED the originals! If he expected a revelation like that to rescue his reputation from that of being "some kind of nut," he's even nuttier than people have said.
First rule of spy tradecraft, don't draw attention to yourself. I'm thinking starting a fire in a parking lot probably doesn't fit that rule too well.
"What did Mr Moore know and when did he know it?"
I am following Rathergate from Australia - the question you ask is the same as fascinates me; I have a hunch that Moore is implicated. Hackworth supposedly gave the prison photographs to Mary Mapes, Moore interviewed Nick Berg before Nick went to Iraq. An associate of Berg's in Iraq was a freelance photographer...the prison abuse photographs looked posed...Farenheit 9/11 is a fraud, Memo's are forgeries, photographs of 'torture' are posed...
What did Moore know and when did he know it seems a fair question to ask.
Don't forget, he had the Abu Grahib photographs long before they were exposed in the media. What is that connection?
This is a question for everybody who read the entire USA TODAY article at the link:
Is it plausible that Dan Rather would consider Bill Burkett an "unimpeachable source"?
Is it remotely plausible?
Perhaps he is a "bag man" for (D) dirt?
What's more interesting is that here he claims that they were "handed to him at the Houston Astrodome by an anonymous man"!!!

Someone who was there can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the 2004 Houston Livestock Show was at the Reliant Astrodome (for the last time) - moving next door to Reliant Stadium this year...
at DU the DUmmies are claiming Rove did it and this proves it or he was a one man sleeper cell waiting for years to come out and take down the dems..LOL
There is also an article at the Austin American Statesman that apparently claims Burkett was misled by CBS and that they mishandled the docs..I didn't register to see the whole story..

That's true. The more I hear from Burkett, the less I believe. Only Kooks and conspiracists will buy what he says
and they buy anything.
I am sorry but this couldn't get any weirder!
The mysterious Lucy...
And Burkett having convulsions every few minutes during his interview...
These were Rather's UNIMPEACHABLE sources?!?!!!?!!?
