| 2. Burkett's got an uphill battle to prove defamation of character. |
|
Plus, he's going to have to get real specific about those documents, should he choose to sue CBS.
The discovery phase of the suit would be very interesting, I'd think.

| 3. Didn't he go to them? Didn't he admit he lied to them? |
|
This man has no character.

| 7. I think Burkett said in interview with Rather that |
|
CBS came to him and Rather agreed. This isn't going to be good. I feel sorry for Burkett. He is not well.
Don't flame me. I'm a bleeding heart liberal.

| 4. You may have made the most important connection yet... |
|
I believe with all my heart that Burkett is part of the Republican machine. Why else would he want to meet with a Kerry advisor before the CBS story aired? I believe that it's only so that Kerry's name would be connected to this fiasco.

Now this is just like * trying to get his butt out of trouble by blaming others. I'm wondering if he is really a Dem or just a lying Pub.

| 10. How Can They Authenticate IF HE LIED ABOUT THE SOURCE? |
|
further, CBS showed them to the White House and they essentially gave docs a pass.

| 9. Rove and CBS both screwed Burkett |
|
CBS went to Burkett and made promises that they then proceeeded to break. His lawyer put out a statement earlier, but I can't find it right now.
Burkett is an elderly, honest, career military vet and thanks to Rove, everyone wants to bash him or screw him. Nice trick.
