'There are a number of serious questions that remain unanswered and they need to be answered,' says White House spokesman Scott McClellan.

'Bill Burkett, who CBS says now was their source, is not an unimpeachable source, as CBS has claimed.'

'There are news reports of Burkett having senior level contact with the Kerry campaign. That raises questions.'

'What were those contacts and what was discussed? Who is the original source of the documents?'

'Who is responsible for forging these documents?

DUmmies labeling Buckhead as the culprit>>>>

Virginian (1000+ posts) Mon Sep-20-04 01:16 PM Response to Reply #25 31. Source was Rove or "Buckhead". Someone duped Burkett. He should hang them out to dry as they did to him. This will get back around to a plant from Bushco. I only hope it gets back around before the election.

"'There are news reports of Burkett having senior level contact with the Kerry campaign. That raises questions.'"

Among which is 'What sitting president was the only president to be re-elected by default?' Hint: Nicknamed 'Dubya.'

If the Kerry campaing had an ebay site, right now they would be auctioning off a fall-guy contract. They are combing the halls of the DNC staffers right now trying to get the lowest bid. At present, nobody will take the fall for Ickes, Lehane, Begalla, et,al for less than 4.2 million.

That hits the nail right on the head! Given the timing, who could imagine that this was not a Carville/Begala op?

Come on CBSABCNBC news...this is the story of the year...who is responsible for creating forged documents and feeding them to the press in an attempt to smear a sitting President of the United States? Break this story and maybe people will start believing you instead of laughing at your "reporting".

Yes, this IS the major media's fork in the road:

(a) Will they choose truth? which is the bat it wields to beat upon for accountability purposes & to inwardly stroke themselves that indeed their existence has some altruistic substance to it;

Or, (b) Will they sacrifice truth at the expense of a striving for power?...submitting to the worldview that power is their god and anything that keeps Kerry in the race serves the ultimate purpose of their existence.

Recent History (their track record), their (lack of) ethics, etc. tells me they'll choose (b).

My money is on Zach Exley being deeply involved.
