Michael Medeiros, who served on Swift Boat No. 94 with Kerry and appeared with him at the Democratic National Convention, told the Globe that Kerry and his crew chased an enemy to the Cambodian border -- but stopped there. He could not recall dropping off special forces in Cambodia or going inside Cambodia with Kerry.
James Wasser, who accompanied Kerry on the Christmas mission aboard Swift Boat No. 44, said that while he believes they were "very, very close" to Cambodia, they did not enter the country.
A third crewmate, who opposes Kerry, flatly accuses him of lying about Cambodia....

If this mission was TOP SECRET then Kerry committed a crime by talking about it over 50 times!!!!!!!!!!!
Rhetorical Question PING
This is Kerry's Me Lie Massacre.
If Thurlow did lie about the taking fire/not taking fire scenario Kerry has negated the hope of his Vietnam service bringing down his candidacy.
Time to move on and attack his legislative record, a better idea from the start.

Its not a question of if Thurlow lied, who wrote the report is and how did they get the FOIA released so quickly to discredit him. Kerrys "Brown book" is hitting fast.
If you don't know about the Thurlow hit job, see

"WASHINGTON - Newly obtained military records of one of Sen. John F. Kerry's most vocal critics, who has accused the Democratic presidential candidate of lying about his wartime record to win medals, contradict his own version of events...."

Nope, this article just raises more eyebrows. Most Americans are unaware there is any controvery about Kerry's Vietnam record. This raises the prestige of that which it rebutted. For example, if Thurlow's records can be reviewed by the Washington Post, why can't Kerry's?
It's not just Thurlow who would have had to lie. The other skippers there (other than Kerry) said there was no enemy gunfire.
Also in reviewing the spot report for the incident, nobody suffered gunshot wounds. The guys on the 3 boat suffered concussion type wounds. The damage report (which is labeled for PFC-94 which I suspect is actually for the 3 boat) shows no indication of bullet damage. The only damage is consistant with a mine detonating.
I would really like to see the repair report on the "94" boat from the yard at An Thoi. They could determine if the damage was for the 3 boat or the 94.

Thanks.
So secret it only occurred in Kerry's "mind."
OK, now how do I get the coffee out of my keyboard?
Or, more importantly, out of my nostrils?
But Kerry's not RUNNING on his legislative record - for obvious reasons: it's almost non-existent.
"So secret it only occurred in Kerry's "mind.""
(to tune of "I'll Be Home for Christmas")
I was in Cambodia for Christmas -
A C.I.A. man and me
It's really so,
but "need to know"
- it's 'seared' in my memory
Christmas eve did find me
fighting Khmer Rouge or VC - it seems...
I was in Cambodia for Christmas
- if only in my dreams.
That's the fault of the RNC and the Bush Campaign.
I want President Bush to publicly announce that he has declassified all of Kerry's "secret missions" in Cambodia.
This would be very magnanimous of President Bush and give Kerry the ability to prove he is telling the truth. LOL Hahaha.
Both statements could be true.
Apparently you are unaware of what has happened. I will sum it up for you.
Kerry Lies.
Swifties counter Lies and reveal what happened.
Kerryites attempt to stop the bleeding with yet more lies.
Swifties destroy and make the Kerryites look ridiculous by
persisting in telling the Truth.
Truth starts to cause Panic in Kerry land.
Desperation overtakes the Washington Piss and a new ad is produced by Kerryites which only stirs the flames to new heights. WP commer- uh, article inadvertently supports Swiftie contention that Kerry fled scene of explosion.
Just keep handing these clowns shovels they are doing a great job of digging themselves into a huge hole.
What was considered to be Kerry's main selling point to the dumbasses, heroism, has been countered so effectively that the campaign now MUST divert resources to shoring up that fraudulent claim rather than being spent on spreading New lies. hehehehe.
