"At Burkett's request, we gave his (telephone) number to the campaign," said Betsy West, senior CBS News vice president.

LOL!

Scarborough is reading from a news dispatch on the air. MSNBC is saying USAToday is reporting it in tomorrow's paper. So it sounds more than just rumor. Unless of course MSNBC wants to join Rather.

And Rather expects us to believe that Burkett is his "unimpeachable source?"

No, that was "unimpeachable sources"
"This report was not based solely on recovered documents, but rather on a preponderance of evidence, including documents that were provided by unimpeachable sources..."

"Soap Opera"

That would explain why Joe Lockhart went to AP, to get his part of the lie story out first.

Color me skeptical.

USA Today?

The paper that hired Michael Moore as a correspondent to the RNC yet quashed Ann Coulter as too partisan to cover the DNC?

USA Today? They will now investigate Dan Rather and CBS looking for co-ordination with the DNC?

BWWWHHAAAAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

Yep. It's all coming together now. I liked Tony Blankely's comment about how Lockhart needs to be out within 48 hours, and that this is now at the H.R. Haldeman level.

I said it last week: this is their Watergate.

Hannity is calling on the Kerry campaign and DNC to release phone records.

This is exactly why Cleeland and Lockhart got their stories ou there so fast. They knew someone was going to start looking at phone records.

Rather knows Burkett is not an "unimpeachable source". There must be someone else.
