Kerry Aide Talked to Bush Guard Docs Figure

Kerry Aide Talked to Bush Guard Docs Figure: "NEW YORK � At the suggestion of a CBS News producer, a top adviser to John Kerry talked to the man at the center of the National Guard 'memogate' imbroglio before the disputed documents were revealed, FOX News has confirmed. "
Dirty Dirty
I said a few days back this would happen.
My favorite quote is this
"But Lockhart denied any connection between the Kerry campaign and the documents, saying there is "no basis" for the White House charges that the Kerry campaign had something to do with the memo entanglement.
Lockhart, the second Kerry adviser to confirm contact with Burkett, said he made the call at the suggestion of CBS producer Mary Mapes. Mapes told him there were some records "that might move the story forward," Lockhart said. "She didn't tell me what they said."
Yeah...Right...We were not interested so two of us made contact with him,,BUT CBS TOLD US TO!! There is more, get this statement
""All I know is that she [CBS producer] called and said 'this gentleman is interested in talking to you,'" Lockhart told FOX News on Tuesday. "Certainly, there was no discussion at all with Mr. Burkett about the National Guard documents ... "I think he was a little bit frustrated he was calling the campaign and I wasn't calling him back. He made some good points and that was the end of it."
"He had some political advice -- he thought we were being too passive on the whole swift boat controversy … I thanked him for the advice," Lockhart continued.
He earlier told FOX News that he only listened to Burkett — a longtime Bush critic — for a few minutes. Lockhart said Burkett made no mention of the documents, but instead said he had a lot of information that would help the Kerry campaign if it wanted to fight back against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth (search), the unregulated 527 group that sponsored ads challenging Kerry's Vietnam service.
Well, did you talk about the documents or not?? The plot thickens!
