Memogate Scenario

From Daniel Weiner comes this fantasized, but plausible scenario of Bill Burkett and Ben Barnes' participation in the CBS document forgery caper. (Via Roger Simon)

UPDATE: More on Bill Burkett, also via Roger Simon. From the Houston Chronicle article:

If Burkett does prove to be the source of the documents, CBS got them from a man with a well-established history of Bush loathing.

In an article Burkett wrote for the Internet last year he compared Bush to Hitler and Napoleon as one of "the three small men" who sought to rule through tyranny. "Three small men who wanted to conquer and vanquish," Burkett wrote. Burkett confirmed authorship of that article in the February Chronicle interview.
