All modern fax machines keep a fax log internal to the machine. There's some magic sequence of keys you press to print it out. If we had someone there, we could have them tell us the make/model of the fax and we could look up the key sequence. They just need to rent a computer and get on FR.

"If I'm not mistaken, since these documents are forgeries of federal military documents whoever created them has committed a felony."

Some Freepers have been looking into whether any crimes have been committed.
So far nobody has cited a law or case.

Some lucky freeper needs to walk into that Kinko's late tonight with a picture of Bill Burkett and ask the college kids behind the desk if anyone recognizes him.

And it would be better to fax them from out-of-town Abilene rather than home-town Baird. No witnesses that way.

I'll bet Barnes worked Burkett and they are in this together. Just my opinion.

I've been battling reporters about Burkett for months. Here is a post about an exchange that I had with the Dallas Morning News about Burkett. Wayne Slater of the Dallas Morning News, who co-wrote the book "Bush's Brain," wrote a dreadful anti-Bush screed here that used Bill Burkett as the sole source. A few minutes of Googling revealed that Burkett's story had changed radically from the one he was telling during the 2000 campaign. In 2000, Burkett denied that the Bush team had "doctored" Bush's military records; now he's claiming that in 1997 he heard orders over a speakerphone from Joe Allbaugh to destroy damaging records. Leave it to the mainstream media to ignore those discrepancies.

Why did Burkett change his story so radically since 2000 and how can he now remember with such clarity an event that he apparently couldn't remember 4 years ago? I'm no journalist but I believe that this source has a severe credibility problem.

Further, Burkett has long been a vocal Bush opponent and has other credibility issues, such as this court case where he sued his superior officers for denying him military medical care. His case was dismissed by the trial court and was thrown out again when he appealed. Burkett claims that Bush sent him on the trip that caused his illness and has had it in for Bush ever since.

The only fax header that we have seen shows CBS' fax machine number. The only party with access to the fax header of the fax TO CBS is CBS itself. So whatever information the Washington Post has been told about the fax header of the fax incoming to CBS has come solely from CBS.

For this reason, this mythical header looks like a setup, most likely to blame Birkett and cover up the DNC as a source. CBS could have faxed a copy from Kinko's at the time to cover their tracks in the event their scam blew up.

I believe that some of us are being naive.

Carl Bernstein admitted at the end that IF "the candidate" (Kerry) is shown to be involved in this

That IS the pot-of-gold and the end of this rainbow. We could see the end of the 'rat party as we know it.

Being faxed from a Kinko's has no bearing on whether they are forgeries or not. CBS admits they only had a copy. It would have been mailed or faxed from somewhere, right? The news here is we are starting to narrow down who they may have come from. Even better news is that major news organizations (that are no friends to conversatives or Bush) seem to agressively investigating this story. This now has nothing to do with Bush, Kerry or the election. Dan Rather, media bias, and journalistic integrity and standards are now the story.

I know this has upset many of us. But we know the MSM has been biased. We have been trying to prove it for years. Now Dan Rather has given us "golden proof" we are right.


When the history of this election and the history of journalism is written, always remember the date of September 8th 2004. That is the day the "meteor hit journalistic world". The media dinasours did not die an immediate death. But just as the dinosaurs of old, their days are numbered. Their earth is covered with dust of a thousand ghosts. The food supply is growing thin. Other predators now see they are no longer invincable. Yes, my fellow "pajamma bloggers", the world changed on Sept 8th, 2004. As many of us witnessed historic events almost 3 years before, we are seeing a similar cosmic shift here. Is is great to be a small part of history. Although our founding fathers in now way could have imagined where we would be technologically today. This is what they intented in terms of a truly free press, of freedom of speech and expression. I can only say one thing.... "Thank you Al Gore for inventing the internet!".

=====(I promise to learn the quote function tomorrow)===

The telephone records from the Fax Machine will reflect to whom the docs were sent.. There then may be phone records to correlate landline, cellphone, sat phone, blackberry whatever... communications between the TO AND FROM sources..

Hey.. I'm sending them now.. okay??

Okay..

Hey.. I got them...

SOMETHING like that.. to ensure.. mission completed on both ends.
