I keep my tinfoil hat handy...but I just cannot believe CBS would expect us to believe Burkett is an unimpeachable source...Someone was helping Burkett...His lawyer,Van Os is running for State Supreme Court...on the dem ticket..backed by the Texas Progressive,Populist Dem party that has also sent a message on their site to support Burkett.

You have stated the key question. When you say CBS, that needs to be qualified. CBS in the case of this story is essentially Rather. I do not believe that Heyward had any control over Rather on this story. It was Dan who called the source unimpeachable when he was in cover-up mode and in shock that forgeries were so quickly found out and the MSM were supporting the bloggers. But the issue goes beyond the forged documents. The issue is now, how could CBS and Rather base a story on such an uncredible source that had been sent packing by the Boston Globe, Newsweek and et al. The answer is the foundation of the stonewall. Rather was a willing participant in drive by political hit job intended to take down a sitting President of the United States. The fact that forgeries were involved makes that criminal. The founder of this forum correctly characterized this act bordering on treasonous given the fact that we are in a state of war.
