Replicant,
First let me thank you for responding.
I get what your saying but here's the issue that I have.
Some of the people don't have the permissions required when these posts are made or edited. They are sent to their command and staff where only they have access to it. But it's an automated post of stuff have done for the day. Sometimes when they redo something. It will go back and edit the post and add to it automatically. Nothing that is in the post is typed by the user. I'm not using ckeditor in any way. Its all an internal script that when someone does a part of a job it writes a new thread once its been marked done.
If it was a user doing something with ckeditor I can totally get where your coming from and it would only make sense to do it that way. But its an automated post.

I've tried doing it via PHP. I've at least think I figured out the code to do it:

define('VB_ENTRY', 1);
		$input = array(
			'title'     => (isset($_POST['title']) ? trim(strval($_POST['title'])) : ''),
			'text'      => (isset($_POST['text']) ? trim(strval($_POST['text'])) : ''),
			'nodeid'    => (isset($_POST['nodeid']) ? trim(intval($_POST['nodeid'])) : 0),
			'parentid'  => (isset($_POST['parentid']) ? trim(intval($_POST['parentid'])) : 0),
			'channelid' => (isset($_POST['channelid']) ? trim(intval($_POST['channelid'])) : 0),
			'ret'       => (isset($_POST['ret']) ? trim(strval($_POST['ret'])) : ''),
			'tags'      => (isset($_POST['tags']) ? $_POST['tags'] : ''),
			'reason'    => (isset($_POST['reason']) ? trim(strval($_POST['reason'])) : ''), //used in editing a post
			'iconid'    => (isset($_POST['iconid']) ? intval($_POST['iconid']) : 0),
			'prefixid'  => (isset($_POST['prefixid']) ? trim(strval($_POST['prefixid'])) : ''),
			'hvinput'   => (isset($_POST['humanverify']) ? $_POST['humanverify'] : ''),
			'subtype'   => (isset($_POST['subtype']) ? trim(strval($_POST['subtype'])) : ''),
			'nl2br'     => (isset($_POST['nl2br']) ? (bool)$_POST['nl2br'] : false),
		);

		$api = Api_InterfaceAbstract::instance();

		if (!empty($_POST['setfor']))
		{
			$input['setfor'] = $_POST['setfor'];
		}

		if (!empty($_POST['recaptcha_challenge_field']))
		{
			// reCaptcha fields
			$input['hvinput']['recaptcha_challenge_field'] = $_POST['recaptcha_challenge_field'];
			$input['hvinput']['recaptcha_response_field'] = $_POST['recaptcha_response_field'];
		}

		// get user info for the currently logged in user
		$user  = $api->callApi('user', 'fetchUserinfo', array());

		$time = vB5_Request::get('timeNow');
		$tagRet = false;

		$textData = array(
			'title'                  => $input['title'],
			'parentid'               => $input['parentid'],
			'prefixid'               => $input['prefixid'],
			'iconid'                 => $input['iconid'],
		);

		if ($input['nodeid'])
		{
			$result = array();
			if ($user['userid'] < 1)
			{
				$result['error'] = 'logged_out_while_editing_post';
				$this->sendAsJson($result);
				exit;
			}

			// when *editing* comments, it uses create-content/text (this function)
			// when *creating* comments, it uses ajax/post-comment (actionPostComment)
			if ($input['subtype'] == 'comment')
			{
				// NOTE: Keep this in sync with
				//       vB5_Frontend_Controller_Ajax:: actionPostComment
				//
				// htmlspecialchars and nl2br puts the text into the same state
				// it is when the text api receives input from ckeditor
				// specifically, newlines are passed as <br /> and any HTML tags
				// that are typed literally into the editor are passed as HTML-escaped
				// because non-escaped HTML that is sent is assumed to be formatting
				// generated by ckeditor and will be parsed & converted to bbcode.
				$textData['rawtext'] = nl2br(htmlspecialchars($input['text'], ENT_NOQUOTES));
			}
			else
			{
				$textData['rawtext'] = $input['text'];
			}

			$textData['reason'] = $input['reason'];

			$textData += $this->getArticleInput();

			$options = array();

			// We need to convert WYSIWYG html here and run the img check
			if (isset($textData['rawtext']))
			{
				$tmpText = $api->callApi('bbcode', 'convertWysiwygTextToBbcode', array($textData['rawtext'], $options));
				// Check Images
				if (($phrase = vB5_Frontend_Controller_Bbcode::verifyImgCheck($tmpText)) !== true)
				{
					$results['error'] = $phrase;
					$this->sendAsJson($results);
					return;
				}
			}

			if ($input['nl2br'])
			{
				// not using ckeditor (on edit, 'nl2br' goes in the data array)
				$textData['nl2br'] = true;
			}

			// add attachment info so update() can do permission checking & add/remove attachments to this node.
			$this->addAttachments($textData);

			$updateRet = $api->callApi('content_text', 'update', array($input['nodeid'], $textData, $options));
			$this->handleErrorsForAjax($result, $updateRet);
			// If the update failed, just return and don't edit tags, attachments etc.
			if (!empty($updateRet['errors']))
			{
				return $this->sendAsJson($result);
			}

			//update tags
			$tags = !empty($input['tags']) ? explode(',', $input['tags']) : array();
			$tagRet = $api->callApi('tags', 'updateUserTags', array($input['nodeid'], $tags));
			$this->handleErrorsForAjax($result, $tagRet);

			$this->sendAsJson($result);
		}
		else
		{
			//not sure why rawtext is different here from the above
			$textData['rawtext'] = $input['text'];
			$textData['userid'] = $user['userid'];
			$textData['authorname'] = $user['username'];
			$textData['created'] = $time;
			$textData['hvinput'] = $input['hvinput'];

			$publish = array(
				'facebook' => !empty($_POST['fbpublish'])
			);

			if (!empty($_POST['setfor']))
			{
				$textData['setfor'] = intval($_POST['setfor']);
			}

			if(!$this->createNewNode('content_text', $textData, $publish, $input))
			{
				return;
			}
		}

However this code keeps asking for more and more includes, I stopped on the 7th one cause it started giving multiple errors that were not related to the code shown. I've got until Sept to figure this out and at the current rate I'll not figure this out in time. I'll have to abandon vBulletin and I'd really rather not do that.
