BROWN: Kate Zernike has been chasing that story for "The New York Times." She worked at "The Boston Globe" before that and covered the Senator then as well. It's nice to see you. The one issue the Senator has some problems on I think in this is Cambodia, fair?
KATE ZERNIKE, "THE NEW YORK TIMES": Right. Right.
BROWN: he says he was there on Christmas and the record doesn't seem to support that.
ZERNIKE: No. In fact, if you look in "Tour of Duty" by Douglas Brinkley, which is his biography, or a biography of the Senator, he's somewhere else on December 25th, on Christmas Eve and on Christmas Day.
Brinkley himself says there's some question Kerry may have been in Cambodia later. These vets are saying Kerry was never in Cambodia and that, if you tried to go there, there were huge signs on the part of the river saying "do not enter."

Brown takes the least troubling aspect of Kerry's lies, and makes it seem like it's the most troubling lie. Typical liberal media spin and subterfuge.
Kerry was in Cambodia. Christmas Eve, December 5, 1958. The Viet Cong were celebrating groundhog day because it was July 4, 1975. This is seared into his memory.
Anyone who watches CNN can see the cheerleading for Kerry on every show. It's sickening.
The exposing continues.
The delicate main-stream media dance of extracting Kerry from his Vietnam/Cambodia troubles continues. Here we see that Kate and Aaron have gotten Kerry "safely" away from those nasty Swifties, at least in regards to his Vietnam lies (form 180: didn't do it, didn't see me do it, can't prove I did it). Now they are confronted with the huge pile of donkey poo regarding Cambodia. (Wo)manfully, Kate strides in: "Brinkley himself says there's some question Kerry may have been in Cambodia later."
Right, Kate - like anybody with an IQ above 90 believes the swill you two are peddling. ;-)

Liberal journalists are catching on to the fact John F*ckin's a certifiable liar. Cracks are appearing here and there in the solid mainstream media line that the Swift Boat Vets are just a tool of the Bush Campaign. They should ask Kerry to begin reconciling all the different versions of his tall tales...
Little Chrissie Matthews said that he "doesn't care about Cambodia."
And, we're supposed to give a hoot what little Chrissie thinks! Stupid Chrissie.
I have a book (the one referenced in my vanity) that tells of an incident where an army LCU resupply vessel went up one river and accidently into Cambodia, where they were captured. After they were released, the Lt. Cdr. who was in charge was brought before Adm. Zumwalt in Siagon who demanded to know why he had gone past navy security and into Cambodia. The reason was that they had taken a route that had not yet been marked as prohibited. The book states that the US Navy was responsible for patrolling the river and preventing boats from crossing the border. After the incident, the Lt. Cdr. was to make recommendations for marking the area so that it would not happen again.
This account backs up previous information that entry into Cambodia was prohibited and that there were consequences for violating that prohibition.
