Subject: RE: BS: Bush AWOL revisited
Sorry you wishful thinkers, but AP is reporting that Burkett "communicated several times with high ranking Kerry campaign officials" before he released the forged memos. One name out already is Max Cleland, but others in the Kerry campaign are sure to follow.

The old investigative motto during Watergate was "Follow the money"; I suspect that in in Memogate it will be "Follow the sleaze".

And Ron, to answer your question above; Hell no! If your political enemy was using forged documents to make any kind of a case against you, and you have experts telling you they are forged (which I'm sure Bush knew within twenty minutes of the broadcast), you stand back and watch the corrupt idiots fall on their swords. And you kill two really incompent birds with one stone, CBS and the Kerry campaign. It was masterful, and I bet Bush was a little ticked at Laura for almost giving it away.

And if you get a local Texas prosecutor to throw a grand jury supoena at Burkett for his computor and his email records, and at Kinkos for the fax records, the prospects are simply delicious.
