Excerpt from http://michael-friedman.com/archives/000139.html dated February 17, 2004:
Who is Bill Burkett?

Former Lt. Colonel Bill Burkett is the man who claims that Bush and the Texas National Guard cleaned out any damaging information in Bush's National Guard files in 1997.

As Kevin Drum explains in an exhaustively researched post, Burkett has a major axe to grind - he blames Bush for the military denying him medical care during an illness in 1998.

However, there is another reason to be skeptical about Burkett. Burkett has strongly held loony left political views. He has written numerous articles espousing his positions and clearly wishes to sway the electorate. This gives him another obvious motive to lie about Bush's National Guard files.

Short answer: Another DUer type.

Digging? naw, the bottom feeders only find what lies on the bottom, and those who feed there also.
Fox news said tonight that you are responsible for finding the irregularities in the "memos from Col.Killian"
Horray! and heartfelt thanks.
