br> -- Jasper Gillis /p> p> Mr. Van Os: Your proof that you are honest and ethical is based upon an award given by your peers? A bunch of lawyers? Oh please! That's like Al Capone being nominated for the best little mobster from his peers! You're not even a very good lawyer. In your last paragraph, you use the supposition of Ms. Knox to argue that there is proof of poor George's truancy. I'm not even a lawyer and I can see through that. As for your statement, "the tax paying citizens have a right to know," I'm a tax-paying citizen and I want to know why John Kerry has missed so many votes through out his career … on taxpayers' expense. I want to know why both John Kerry and John Edwards are still getting paid for jobs as senators that they are not able serve in, and getting paid from my tax dollars. Keep being a Democrat, Mr. Van Os, it's the only place you'll be able to find people (some, not all) dumb enough to believe you. br> -- Peter Amato br> Palm Harbor, Florida /p>

In his response to George Neumayr's "Working Kinkos," Bill Burkitt's lawyer, David Van Os, says:

"I am an ethical citizen and an ethical lawyer and never would condone forgery or falsification."

He goes on argue that "...Mrs. Knox has publicly stated that although she did not type the 'CBS Documents," they may be attempted re-creations of documents that may have existed." Necessary, Van Os implies, in order to "reflect what was actually going on."

p>Perhaps Mr. Van Os feels that rationalizing forgery is more "ethical" that condoning it. br> -- Robin Boult br> Murfreesboro, Tennessee
