Where's the apology to President Bush for destroying his reputation on the basis of forged documents? They still don't get it, the C-BS clymers.
BS, all of it.
These people could not be so stupid as to believe they were real.
They just didn't think some "Internet Kooks" would out them.
CBS is despicable, and without credibility.
They are below the Weekly World News.
Nice try CBS. We know better. And so do you.
Your legacy has been written in stone.
Anybody else notice in Rather's attempt at an apology he called Burkett a member of the AIR Nat'l Guard, not the ARMY which is the one I've read he was actually in?
'A lawyer for Mr. Burkett, Gabe Quintanilla, said Monday that his client was given the documents at the livestock show in March, and kept them to himself because he did not know whether they were authentic.'
Well, this is the first I have heard of getting documents at a livestock show. Of course, I have heard of finding other things at such an event that would resemble the document in question...
There's a cancer Bob, a cancer growing on the Kerry campaign.

The lamestream media was more outraged about what Trent Lott said at a birthday party than they are about CBS trying to pass of forgeries as "news".
Burkett now says he got the docs from a mysterious stranger at the Houston Livestock Show?? CBS News will never live it down that they believed him.
Until he apologizes to President Bush, nothing he says is worth listening to
Hey now, easy. The WWN is some of the finest investigative reporting on the planet. < /MIB>
> They are below the Weekly World News.
Way below.
The supermarket tabloids are at least smart enough anymore
to avoid giving the subject grounds for a libel suit. This
one might even meet the steep "public figure" tests.
Bush probably won't sue, but I'm not so sure that the
Texas ANG won't start a criminal investigation, not to
mention the many calls for a Congressional investigation.
That's got to be George Conn. He was in the guard with Burkett and was one of the guys Burkett said saw the papers in the trash can. My understanding is that Conn has denied it. Conn is currently working in Germany under a DOD contract.
And if Rather and/or CBS had apologized to President Bush, would you have believed them?
Clarification: Denied seeing the documents, not that he denied being the origial source Burkett claimed. (He probably wouldn't know that).
Actually, I might have. To see Dan Rather humbly apologize to anyone would HAVE to be sincere.
This circus is actually more like the Democrappers. Always passing the blame and taking the buck. Far more true to form.
Sounds like they have picked their sacrificial lamb.
