The Mapes Seat - Getting Hotter? By BummerDietz
Longtime (OK, 3 months and counting) readers know that BummerDietz has put longshot money on CBS Legal and Mary Mapes as being the bad guys here. (Burkett seems to me a patsy; but he certainly could be the forger.)
Drudge previously spotted December 10 as the report release date, with the draft report having been viewed internally at CBS. Rather was retired shortly thereafter.
Various hearsay reports have leaked indicating that the report will be delayed past December 10, because Mapes is fighting CBS. A FOX commentator opined that Mapes had prepared a 68-page defense of her actions.
Any delay, to me, will be caused by the multiple sets of attorneys who will have to review and approve the "public" report. When a report focuses on an employee, like Mapes, things get dicey. Readers of this page have reviewed the Texas felony forgery law, and other laws, that may well put Mapes (or others) in felony jeopardy, based upon the report.
OF COURSE Mapes is fighting the report. If it goes against her, there are a lot of district attorneys in Texas who would like to be Governor, and then President...just like Bush. And indicting (in a Texas court) an ultra-liberal New York radical feminist leftist who tried to throw the election against Bush by forging documents involving Texas servicemen, is the shortest path to the Governor's Mansion for a district attorney.
OF COURSE Mapes is fighting the report. The forums will be a lot less friendly, in the future, than at Black Rock.
