CONTROVERSIAL TEXAS RANCHER SAYS LOCKHART WANTED DOCUMENTS //

The source of a disputed CBSNEWS report claimed Thursday that Kerry adviser Joe Lockhart tried to "convince me as to why I should give them the documents." Texas Army National Guard Lt. Col.

Lockhart had been stating that they had no conversation about the documents. Of course, the RATS are going to call Burkett a liar now. I gotta get the popcorn in the microwave. This is too good!

This is way too much fun to be having a mere five weeks before GW crushes Kerry in the election!

PS: I know! I know...Turnout, turnout, turnout!

Lockhart can't call Burkett a lawyer, or can he. But if he does it destroys Rather TOTALLY!

Right now I'm thinking landslide. Lockhart has reminded us of the Clinton's and Monicagate.

I'm not counting on it. I would LOVE a landslide, but I am not allowing myself that luxury of thought right now. WORKING , PRAYING, and HOPING!! I feel Bush will win, but by what margin, anyones guess right now.

This isn't New Jersey, it's Texas. Everyone has a ranch. It's safe.

Nonsense. He already admits he's having seizures. He's a dead man walking, IMO.

Two words. Vince Foster.....

So all of a sudden, we believe Burkett?

Don't get me wrong, I think this is hilarious, but Burkett is still a liar, and there's no reason to believe his claims.

Actually I still don't believe this wacko, but this guy is not going down by himself....he is realizing that everyone is jumping ship and acting like they don't know him and he is NOT liking it one bit. So just sit back and relax cuz this show is going to be pretty entertaining......hehehehe

Exactly, his March 3 story about receiving them from a mystery man is so bogus! He'd been public with his wild accusations against Bush since 1997, and now someone has supposedly provided the 'documents' to prove his case and bring down Bush, and he just calmly puts them on ice for a few hours, in the possession of SOMEONE ELSE???

I don't think so, especially since he wrote on August 13 that he had never seen anything from Killian to impugn Bush..... so Burkett's definitely a liar, but it will be so much fun to see whether CBS and the DNC dare to attack him (they have to, but it will then completely undermine their campaign against Bush).

Exactly. Burkett will not fall alone. Burkett will probably fall with Lockhart, Rather will fall with Mapes, and Kerry will fall with Edwards.

more like a Burkett dead pool. lots of people want him to stay quiet

If he is crazy-smart, he will have posthumous exculpatory evidence stashed away somewhere, pending a Ft. Marcy Park ending for his illustrious life. I bet he does.

Now pass the popcorn, please...

excerpt from article: "Bill Burkett, a former commander in the Texas Air National Guard"

I thought I'd heard and read that he was Army, not Air.

Wouldn't the criminal prosecution come under Ronnie Earle DA Travis County? You know the one that just got indictments against three of DeLay's aides........
