"By his action and inaction, Dan Rather ruined my reputation in front of 70 million people." Oh nonsense. If anything it *reinforced* your reputation as a liar and a snake.

hey were not prepared. And I had warned them ... that this would probably be one of the most highly coordinated vicious attacks that they would ever have to face," Burkett said in an interview with the Star-Telegram.
Vicious attacks eh
That's what they call exposing FRAUD these days

"He said he told the woman that someone could drop off the documents while he was attending the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on March 3. He said he was at a cattle-sale booth on that day when a man appeared, referred to him as "Colonel," then handed him an envelope containing the documents."
This guy has watched "Get Smart" reruns one time too many

Probably misinformation to hide the fact that *LOCKART* and the DNC
already had the memos.
Lockart is probably the one who furnished the memos to Burkett in the first place -- this has the Clinton fingerprints all over it...

Sounds like paranoia may be a problem for Mr. Burkett, too.

"I really, sincerely, 100 percent believed that the CBS 60 Minutes people could absolutely authenticate this, verify it and do it right," he said.Who in tarnation believes this NUTCASE?
"By his action and inaction, Dan Rather ruined my reputation in front of 70 million people."
DR just enforced Burkett's already LOONEY reputation!

"There are so many holes in Bush's Guard file." Right. There are so many holes, that after investigating for five or more years, the only holes were the files that were made up. If Bush's Guard career is so full of holes, why is it so hard to prove?

Would Burkett NEED to have co-ordinated with the kerry Kampaign? Wouldn't CBS be more relevant, since they were the ones in charge of the timing of the release of their story? And wasn't Mapes already in contact with Lockhart?

This is the EXACT reason that I was able to obtain camoflauge jammies with branches sticking out of them...covert meetings.
To: harpu
The charges and counter charges are beginning to fly.
I wonder if any of the participants in this sordid plot to take down a sitting president had the forethought to make a "get out of jail" recording.

The DNC released ads mirroring the content of the phony memos about a day after Rather ran the story. If that's coincidence, I'm a flying monkey.
The only thing that threw a monkeywrench into this tidy little two-pronged attack was the fact that the Rather story got torpedoed by a sharp-eyed FReeper.
Hey, I still got a question, and it seems like even the conservatives are ignoring it. Specifically,
Who forged the memo? It was obviously meant to damage Bush, but who created it? Who is this mysterious "Lucy Ramirez"? I hate to say it, but it's almost like the press has decided that Burkett is the end of the line, the fall guy. And if he didn't fake the memos, somebody did, somebody who was out to get Bush and affect the results of the election dishonestly.
Who?
The leftwingers are claiming it's Karl Rove, my money is on Terry McCauliffe. But no matter who it is, I want to know.

"By his action and inaction, Dan Rather ruined my reputation in front of 70 million people."Mr. Burkett clearly believes that someone besides himself watches cBS.
The man is delusional.

Friday 09/24/04 Chicago Sun-Times TV columnist Phil Rosenthal says:
"Sunday "60" Minutes.
"These guys, opening their 37th season, are awfully confident they wouldn't make the recent mistakes of their Wednesday spinoff. Tune in this week to hear Fox News Channel's BILL O'REILLY say he's PRO-GUN CONTROL, AGAINST THE DEATH PENALTY, FOR CIVIL UNIONS, MINDFUL OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND OPEN TO POSSIBLY VOTING FOR JOHN KERRY. "I've known Kerry for 25 years. He's a patriot. I'm listening to what he has to say," he tells Mike Wallace."
http://www.suntimes.com/output/rosenthal/cst-ftr-phil24a.html
Yes, Bill we know that you are just another Democrat shill for Kerry.
