~10:41pm~ EST JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH ABILENE KINKOS: Bill Burkett has a standing account with the Kinkos in Abilene Texas, and while the lady who answered the phone would not be more specific she did say Burkett was in there last week - she waited on him on last (a week ago) Tuesday....

BUSTED!!
Well, now, Abilene, people there, Dan, won't treat you mean!
Gee 60 Minutes has been claiming this story took 4 years. LOOSERS!!!
Wasn't the docs in the hands of everyone 6 weeks ago--so they say?
YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST ON FREEREPUBLIC.COM
ok... can we have verification that this post is true? We dont want to pull a DAN RATHER
... but the women will.
Excellent work, KMC1. Great idea to telephone direct.
Wow.....good job! CBS IS BUSTED!
But I thought I read that these allegations and threats about these documents were in Kitty Kelleys book and talked about on a radio show in August...Is there a tie in here? Or did the fraudulent docs JUST arrive and sent last week...I guess I stay tuned!!!
It took someone a lot of posts to ask that question...
OK who is Bill Burkett?
I suspect he's a GOP operative, since he's from Texas.
Just, Damn! I was hopin' it was RATher all by hisself!
Video surveilance tapes will show Karl Rove wearing a Ben Barnes mask.
You would have thought the WP would have thought to do this...
The Washinton Post already fingered him
This whole thing does not ring true.
The more I think about this the more I think this must be some sort of setup or con act. I wonder if someone really hates Rather. Perhaps a former employee of CBS news. Could it be that CBS bought the story? Could CBS have had Rathers daughter offering to buy dirt on Dubya?Could someone think hey a half hour's work at Kinkos and a pitch to Rathers daughter, would be followed by smome cash from Rather? What else explains the story? Could Kerry have been offering bucks for dirt on Bush and an enterprising Word user... decided to try to make a few bucks?... and they fell for it?
What if the Kerry Campaign was trying to buy dirt on Bush .. and bought a forgery. What if the Kerry people vouched for the fake Documents being valid. Would Rather believe a top Kerry staffer over his own hired experts?
It appears Rather fell for some sort of Con, and is now between a rock and a hard place.
Something has to explain CBS buying these very sloppy forgeries. The source had to be very very believable to CBS.
Send this to Drudge. Did you get the woman's name? (Don't publish it, but, if you have it, it will add credibility.)
