Would Burkett NEED to have co-ordinated with the kerry Kampaign? Wouldn't CBS be more relevant, since they were the ones in charge of the timing of the release of their story? And wasn't Mapes already in contact with Lockhart?(in best Jack Nicholson sneer) Is there another kind?
Oh nonsense. If anything it *reinforced* your reputation as a liar and a snake.
"He said he told the woman that someone could drop off the documents while he was attending the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on March 3. He said he was at a cattle-sale booth on that day when a man appeared, referred to him as "Colonel," then handed him an envelope containing the documents."
This guy has watched "Get Smart" reruns one time too many
What more do you need to know about this a$$hole than he's too lazy to find a vintage typewriter.
Yeah, a bunch of FReepers and bloggers held high-power meetings in the middle of the night. LOL!
Look out for the pajama brigade . . .
Lockart is probably the one who furnished the memos to Burkett in the first place -- this has the Clinton fingerprints all over it...
Who in tarnation believes this NUTCASE?
"By his action and inaction, Dan Rather ruined my reputation in front of 70 million people."
DR just enforced Burkett's already LOONEY reputation!
"There are so many holes in Bush's Guard file." Right. There are so many holes, that after investigating for five or more years, the only holes were the files that were made up. If Bush's Guard career is so full of holes, why is it so hard to prove?
Would Burkett NEED to have co-ordinated with the kerry Kampaign? Wouldn't CBS be more relevant, since they were the ones in charge of the timing of the release of their story? And wasn't Mapes already in contact with Lockhart?The only thing that threw a monkeywrench into this tidy little two-pronged attack was the fact that the Rather story got torpedoed by a sharp-eyed FReeper.
Hey, I still got a question, and it seems like even the conservatives are ignoring it. Specifically,
Who forged the memo? It was obviously meant to damage Bush, but who created it? Who is this mysterious "Lucy Ramirez"? I hate to say it, but it's almost like the press has decided that Burkett is the end of the line, the fall guy. And if he didn't fake the memos, somebody did, somebody who was out to get Bush and affect the results of the election dishonestly.
Who?
The leftwingers are claiming it's Karl Rove, my money is on Terry McCauliffe. But no matter who it is, I want to know.
Mr. Burkett clearly believes that someone besides himself watches cBS.
The man is delusional.
Friday 09/24/04 Chicago Sun-Times TV columnist Phil Rosenthal says:
"Sunday "60" Minutes.
"These guys, opening their 37th season, are awfully confident they wouldn't make the recent mistakes of their Wednesday spinoff. Tune in this week to hear Fox News Channel's BILL O'REILLY say he's PRO-GUN CONTROL, AGAINST THE DEATH PENALTY, FOR CIVIL UNIONS, MINDFUL OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND OPEN TO POSSIBLY VOTING FOR JOHN KERRY. "I've known Kerry for 25 years. He's a patriot. I'm listening to what he has to say," he tells Mike Wallace."

Yes, Bill we know that you are just another Democrat shill for Kerry.
Rather's latest spin: "We had it on good authority from an unimpeachable nutcase."
tick....tock....
or should I say:
tick tick tick tick tick tick tick tick...
According to the Associated Press, Lockhart said he listened to some campaign advice from Burkett for a few minutes and does not recall talking about Bush's National Guard records.
LOL! What a convenient lapse of memory.
"I was absolutely and clearly told that that was as far as anyone could go without crossing the line of [journalistic] ethics," Burkett said.
During a single phone conversation with Lockhart, Burkett said he suggested a "couple of concepts on what I thought [Kerry] had to do" to beat Bush. In return, he said, Lockhart tried to "convince me as to why I should give them the documents."
In the third paragraph, Burkett describes Lockhart as trying to convince Burkett to give "them" (who? CBS or Kerry campaign?) the documents.
In the first paragraph, Burkett is quoted as though CBS gives him assurance that his phone nmumber will be given to Lockhart - and this is AFTER CBS has the documents.
Which is it? I think that Lockhart's call was the trigger to Burkett, to give the documents to CBS.
I wonder how hard it would be to find a copy of something with Burkett's signature and compare it to the fake Killian signature . . .
Goodness, I feel as tho I need hip boots to even read this drivel.
