Props to Carl Cameron.
He had the Max Cleland admission on Fox News earlier today.
Lockhart says that Burkett had advice for dealing with the Swiftees, but also says Mapes' suggestion (why is CBS calling Kerry?) was natural because it was common knowledge CBS was working on a TexANG story. Hmmm.
"I want your D.O.R. Mapes"
tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic.....
Bye Bye Danny Boy, and Ketchup Boy!
Hope Sean Hannity gives this CBS/Kerry connection plenty of airtime tomorrow.
Ha--I was here and making sure to note names of who was assembled.
The plot, it thickens.
BUCKHEAD IS JOE LOCKHART!!

The Los Angeles Times notes this morning that he Kerry campaign has hired former Clinton White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart and Joel Johnson, a lobbyist who worked for President Clinton to help respond to the Swift Boat Veteran's attacks.
Drug dealers defense: "I didn't make the coke. I only helped others to distribute it."
It should be noted that the first break in Camp Kerry comes from a recent Clinton addition. Who said Bill and Hillary were not working for the Bush reelection. They are not taking any chances on a close election, Hillary wants to run against a non-incumbent in 2008.
CBS News needs to be removed from the air and equal time must be given to the President for the Kerry propaganda that this network spewed during the campaign so far.
I can't yet find a bylined version of this story anywhere on the web. I tried.
Someone with direct AP wire access or LexisNexis access may be able to find out the writer's name.
VIDEO: Rather interveiewed by WCBS reporter...

In a remarkable interview, Liar Dan says that he doesn't feel betrayed by his source; that he believes his source; that the story is still correct, but he would not have used the documents. He also takes shots at the White House. It is absolutely remarkable to watch this guy self-destruct this way. Paranoid Rather looks absolute depressed as he tells one lie after another.
The story about Lockhart and Mapes shows Liar Dan still hasn't come clean and the coverup is still on. From WaterGate to RatherGate, Liar Dan has seen the decline and fall of CBS news.
"At the behest of CBS, an adviser to John Kerry said he talked to a central figure in the controversy over President Bush's National Guard service shortly before disputed documents were released. "
Since WHEN does a major media producer ASK a presidential advisor to talk to one of her sources????????
Unbelieveable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think Lockhart joined *officially* a couple of weeks ago...
Soooo....this explains the Kerry campaign's new focus on Vietnam - they're following the advice of Burkett! :)
Burkett's attorney is running for Texas Supreme Court.
It's either two Clintonistas or Van Os, and Van Os ain't going.
Lockhart was Press Secretary during the waning years of the Clinton administration. He, along with Paul Begala and James Carville, have recently come onboard the Kerry campaign's taking-on-seawater staff in a sort of "unpaid advisor" role(s)
The facts are all correct, but they're backwards!,
Yes these calls were made, but it was Lockhart who told Mapes to contact Burkett."
