Breaking: Another name on Ms. Palfrey's records!

And I have gotten to this phone records as of yet. But, I will...

From Raw Story:

Via Citizens for Legitimate Government:

The phone number for GOP political operative/conservative pundit, John (Jack) M. Burkman Jr. - Principal J.M. Burkman & Associates, Arlington, VA - appears in the database of phone records of the ‘DC Madam.’ From the phone logs: 2006-01-15 18:44 1.00

This is the same Jack Burkman who echoed Ann Coulter’s disgusting hate rant about the 9/11 widows on Scarborough Country last year.

More information and video at Media Matters:

Summary: On MSNBC’s Scarborough Country, Republican strategist Jack Burkman, echoing right-wing pundit Ann Coulter, whom he was defending, declared that “within hours of those [World Trade Center] towers going down,” the wives of victims of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks “were ready to make money and exploit this tragedy!”

On a footnote: The phone number is on the Sprint January 22, 2006-August 22, 2006 page 46. Also, here is Burkman's firm and number. Looks like the names may be expanding into lobbyists:

J.M. Burkman & Associates
1530 Key Boulevard, #1222
Arlington, VA 22209
Phone: 703-524-3209

Another footnote: Burkman recently worked as a lobbyist for groups such as the Family Research Council, Caring To Love Ministries, and America’s Heros of Freedom.
