You'd have to use one of the Version 1.0 licenses. All of the 2.0
licenses contain the attribution requirements. There's been previous
debate about this; perhaps you'd like to weigh in on the subject in more
detail.

At any rate, while you can modify the text of the CC 2.0 licenses to
suit your needs, you wouldn't be able to call it a CC license at that
point. So, either the 1.0 licenses, or a modified 2.0 license, seems
like the way to go.

You may also want to look at the CC sampling licenses, which may be
different. Perhaps they'll be more appropriate to your needs than the
regular CC licenses listed on the http://creativecommons.org/licenses/
page.
