#1 All this is comming back to the DNC and Kerry Camp.
Contascts were made while CBS were making this a story. Rathergate is just the tip of the iceburg.

#2 What's good is that it is Lockhart. If it had been Cleland, he'd have had sympathy. As though being in a wheelchair would give him a pass on netharious behaviour.

Lockhart has the "Eau de Clinton" aura, and is a known master bullshitter. A believable and appropriate villian. Does he like orange prison jumpsuits?

#3 Yes it comes back to the DNC but the link is weak at this point. No doubt the DNC wanted the story to come out, but it was CBS that arranged a meet for Burkett and Lockhart. This was a condition of Burkett’s in order for CBS to get the documents. Burkett is a delusional and hates Bush for some reason. If they can prove some coordination between CBS and the DNC ala operation “Fortunate Son” CBS is toast and so should some people at the DNC. What I want is the LLL to finally admit that this is non story and never was. So far every official document shows that Bush enlisted, trained, served, and was discharged honorably. After five years of “investigative journalism” they have hearsay and forged document. Call me silly but doesn’t that sort of prove that they supposed story never was?

#4 CS - you hit on what I think is the funniest part of this whole story. That the LLL actually was sooo excited about this non-story in the first place.

We all know Bush is a "fortunate son". So is Kerry. The swift boat stuff is really damaging because it told things about Kerry's mindset that were really ugly. The TANG story didn't reveal anything about Bush we didn't already know. We already knew, we already didn't care.

That they were willing to stoop to such lows and take such a big chance on this is the biggest slapper of all.
