Excellent, countie!
"This would mean that the Kerry campaign -- which Barnes is co-chair of -- got the documents first, then CBS received them a few days later."
You put together a good timeline.
The above is exactly what the America Spectator article said, quoting an unidentified Dem staffer.
I forgot the title of the article, but you seem to be up on all that.
MSNBC brought out tonight that forgery of government documents to "cause harm" to an individual is a felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
Somebody should go to jail over this.
Wild as it may seem - it may be time to look for a link with Michael Moore. He obviously didn't mind manufacturing things for his "documentary", maybe he contributed / collaborated in the forgeries. After all he has been harping on the AWOL thing the loudest and longest. Perhaps a link through Mapes??
Inquiring minds want to know: What did Mr Moore know and when did he know it?
BINGO!
All good points, even if delivered in such staccato fashion as to make them confusing.
Keep in mind also!...Washington Post (not Times, but the real MSM)
on Sept.10 quoted CBS as saying their source saw the documents
at the time they were created.
Just more gasoline for the fire!
From USA Today add this to your list:
"About an hour after the 60 Minutes story aired, Burkett also gave the documents to a USA TODAY reporter who had flown to meet him in Bozeman, Mont., where he said he was visiting friends."
Bozeman, Montana?? Getting wierder by the minute.
Did Cleland make a visit there that day?"
Doubt it. Burkett would have to meet Cleland; Cleland wouldn't drive 162 miles out of his way to meet Burkett. Not a chance. Maybe they met somewhere in between, but I seriously doubt it. Risky as hell.
That said, I still am convinced that "I Blowed Myself Up REAL Good" Cleland is in this up to his little, piggy eyeballs.
I think these documents, in one form or another, have been circulating for a long time, at least since February, but probably longer.
It's possible that the content has been around for a year or more, but the actual forgeries created recently.
I am confident that Burkett is responsible for the content.
