My money's on Michael Moore on the fake docs.
Pat Caddell claimed on Fox News today that CBS called Bukett looking for the documents, Burkett did nor call CBS.
It sounds like the Democrats/Kerry either created them or got them from someone who did, then passed them to Burkett anonymously via the mythical Lucy Ramirez, then had CBS retrieve them from Burkett.
Meanwhile the Dems worked on their "Operation Fortunate Son" to cordinate with the hit piece they had constructed.
This is an out an out fraud and The Dems are at the heart of it.
I think it's payback time, lets create some documents that prove the theory...:-)
If I had to predict, I would predict that Burkett along with a person named Paul Lukasiak, a Philadelphia caterer, gay activist and known Bush hater. Lukasiak has written lengthy paranoid diatribes about the President's TANG service. Between the two of them there is a possibility they had a "folie a deux"; relationship. While both would have the facts more or less down they would not have the Air National Guard lingo completely down even though Lukasiak published a long screed on this including copies of TANG records.
There is an excellent discussion Lukasiak on the American Thinker Blog at http://www.americanthinker.com/comments.php?comments_id=719. Most of what I am positing is there: I just draw a different conclusion.
I do not think Burkett possessed the ability to think through and do the memos by himself, but the time lines are such that he must have played some part in their composition. I do feel the American Thiner Blog is onto something; however, they ascribe everything to Burkett.
Incidentally, Burkett has a history of seizures and had one when being interviewed. He claims brain damage from some disorder contacted in Panama. He claims two "mental breakdowns' and has been described in the papers as having had a "depression"
Like many troubled people ?Burkett developed a delusion that the President had conspired to ruin his health and deny him Veteran's health and other benefits. Like many paranoid people he would seem to be clear and specific in his complaints and very persuasive since, in his way of thinking, he is not lying but simply advocating his beliefs and experience. Where CBS went wrong is that he created a pseudo-community of persecutors wherein he was the center of an attack by important people because of his great ability to perceive the wrong doing of others. While not mentioned in the things I have read, I would bet he is a very isolated and mostly neglected person with no real community support although his family may continue to give hims some psychological support.
Another bet is that when the Fed closes in he will turn state's evidence and claim a lack of criminal responsiblity on the basis of his mental health history and current problems.
