~10:41pm~ EST JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH ABILENE KINKOS: Bill Burkett has a standing account with the Kinkos in Abilene Texas, and while the lady who answered the phone would not be more specific she did say Burkett was in there last week - she waited on him on last (a week ago) Tuesday....
(Excerpt) Read more at kmclive.com ...
BUSTED!!
Well, now, Abilene, people there, Dan, won't treat you mean!
Gee 60 Minutes has been claiming this story took 4 years. LOOSERS!!!
Wasn't the docs in the hands of everyone 6 weeks ago--so they say?
YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST ON FREEREPUBLIC.COM
ok... can we have verification that this post is true? We dont want to pull a DAN RATHER
... but the women will.
Excellent work, KMC1. Great idea to telephone direct.
Wow.....good job! CBS IS BUSTED!
But I thought I read that these allegations and threats about these documents were in Kitty Kelleys book and talked about on a radio show in August...Is there a tie in here? Or did the fraudulent docs JUST arrive and sent last week...I guess I stay tuned!!!
It took someone a lot of posts to ask that question...
OK who is Bill Burkett?
I suspect he's a GOP operative, since he's from Texas.
Just, Damn! I was hopin' it was RATher all by hisself!
Video surveilance tapes will show Karl Rove wearing a Ben Barnes mask.
You would have thought the WP would have thought to do this...
The Washinton Post already fingered him
This whole thing does not ring true.
The more I think about this the more I think this must be some sort of setup or con act. I wonder if someone really hates Rather. Perhaps a former employee of CBS news. Could it be that CBS bought the story? Could CBS have had Rathers daughter offering to buy dirt on Dubya?Could someone think hey a half hour's work at Kinkos and a pitch to Rathers daughter, would be followed by smome cash from Rather? What else explains the story? Could Kerry have been offering bucks for dirt on Bush and an enterprising Word user... decided to try to make a few bucks?... and they fell for it?
What if the Kerry Campaign was trying to buy dirt on Bush .. and bought a forgery. What if the Kerry people vouched for the fake Documents being valid. Would Rather believe a top Kerry staffer over his own hired experts?
It appears Rather fell for some sort of Con, and is now between a rock and a hard place.
Something has to explain CBS buying these very sloppy forgeries. The source had to be very very believable to CBS.
Send this to Drudge. Did you get the woman's name? (Don't publish it, but, if you have it, it will add credibility.)
It's never too late to strip a retired officer of his retirement pay and benefits.
I foresee a third nervous breakdown coming.
Kudos. Not quite Buckhead kudos, but really, really big kudos anyway.
Ooops, thought YOU did the telephoning, KMC1. Still, a great idea to go to the source. Wonder why CBS didn't think of it.
Hey Bill Burkett...I think that Selectric on ebay hasn't closed yet...for next time, ya know...
This seems fishy to me. There is only one Kinkos in Abilene? And how does she know it was Burkett? And how did the caller just happen to call at a time when the store person who supposedly help Burkett was working? I am a die hard conservative, and believe the memos are phonier than Teresa's breasts, but this seems too good to be true.
It almost sounds like the idea of a fraud document was swirling around and it took a while to "construct" the piece to send to CBS..You think? Interesting!!!
Be prepared for liberal articles in the press titled:
"KMC1 Exposed"
"Who is KMC1?"
"KMC1 is an RNC Operative"
Suspcicious timing too.
If these docs can be traced back to burkett, then he will become the scapegoat for CBS, the DNC, and the Kerry campaign.
You would be wrong. Burkett is NOT a GOP operative. He has a long standing beef with Bush.
No, he's a lib with a big-time grudge against President Bush.
>>the more I think this must be some sort of setup or con act<<
If there's one thing I've found to be absolutely true its that don't explain anything away by skill that can also be easily explained by stupidity.
- pingaling - fast moving story.
Seriously guy. Get this info to Drudge, Hannity and Fox asap. If you need to, I know a guy at WAPO who I used to party with in Austin years ago.
Ping.
He also tried to sue the State of Texas for not getting reimbursed for some medical treatment in 1998, when Bush was governor.
He's got a grudge against Bush.
The problem is, Burkett's had two mental breakdowns and, in the only inteview I've heard, he comes across as completely nuts.
If he had a standing account they would have it on file in a way that anyone could access it.
She has implants?!?!
What a country!
: )
I think I'll go out and celebrate by buying a new set of pajamas.
Dear God, I'm loving this just way too much.
Burkett=fall guy
But how is CBS going to defend itself that it was faxed some memos and just went with the story?
There has to be some intermediary that connects Burkett to a 527 or the Kerry campaign somehow.
Nice job. Wow, Freepers (you) are amazing. Has anyone thought of doing some "dumpster" diving in the parking lot of kinkos? Could be some pretty interesting things back there. Maybe Dan left his wallet and credit card there? ;-)
Seriously, nice work.
Oh Great,
Now we have to say "I am KMC1" too!
And my tagline just fit!
GET THIS TO DRUDGE ASAP for vetting.
You see this?
Just damn.
If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
No, he's a GOP operative, because we know all Texans are GOP operatives.
We know the Swifties are liars because thier biggest donor is a Texan, and we know the CBS memos are real, because "Buckhead" is a FReeper, and we know OJ is innocent because Mark Furhman said the "N" word.
