CBS “Source”: A Well-Established BDS Sufferer
Bush Derangement Syndrome is a serious mental illness. Those afflicted with BDS become unable to relate to the real world, make increasingly bizarre pronouncements, and may even resort to strange plots and schemes to act out their paranoid fantasies: Memos’ possible source attacked Bush in past.
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.
