Subject: phone records for Dean/Sebelius/Quinn&Rose controversy
Kathleen: here is my request to the DNC. I respectfully submit my request that phone records be made available to the press. That would certainly end this immediately, embarrass Quinn and Rose, and result in an apology to the innocent parties involved.
Thanks for your help.

Subject: phone records for Dean/Sebelius/Quinn&Rose controversy
Sir: I am working on a freelance piece regarding the controversy over whether a certain conversation occured between Chairman Howard Dean and Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius. It purportedly occured at approximately 5am (I don’t know the time zone) on or about May 10, 2007.
Pursuant to the information on the Quinn and Rose radio program, the talk show hosts suggested that they have a source claiming that Dean encouraged Sebelius to use the recent Kansas tornado for political purposes.
Pursuant to my conversation with Dag Vega, I am making a request to have phone records made available to the press. The records must be certified by the phone company. Since the time zone for the time in question is unknown, please see that a several hour window is made available. In particular, it is important for the press to see any calls made by the staff of the DNC or by Chairman Dean himself to the area code 785 in Topeka, Kansas.
If you willingly provide such records for the press, you will be able to end the controversy. In the face of such evidence, Quinn and Rose would have no choice but to issue a retraction and apology. Certainly, you would welcome such a speedy conclusion. We know that the DNC would never want to exploit people’s heartache and tragedy for your own political purposes.
Thank you for your consideration.

You on a first name basis with Sebelius already?
