I hope O'Neill is going to sue the headline writer for libel. The writer of the story is very careful not to accuse O'Neill of lying, but not so for the headline writer.

Don't you love the snippet out of context?

It doesn't work anymore, MSM. There are too many other venues for information.

If only the AP and others in the MSM would INVESTIGATE Kerry 1/10th as much as they are the SWIFTIES there would be a level playing field. Can you believe they are looking at the NIXON tapes to find something on these guys. Unbelievable!!

The democrats are in a smear campaign against John E O'Neill, they are investigating HIM, NOT John Fraud Kerry like they are supposed to be doing for the voters. It isnt the medias JOB to DEFEND KERRY!

Where have you been, K? This is old news. The statement was taken out of context. Immediately following that statement he said that he wasn't really in Cambodia, but close to it. Of course the last part isn't being quoted by the MSM. Sheesh, get with the whole truth.

When Nixon saw him on the Dick Cavett Show debating JFK, he invited John O'Neill to the White House only to realize that he was a democrat and therefore had no use for him. The MSM won't tell you that only that he met with Nixon. A half truth does not create a lie.

It is unbelievable how the MSM watchdogs will bay like hounds after anything that might help Kerry, but cannot be roused off the front porch to pursue any story or fact that works against him.

August of 2004 will be remembered as The Great Unmasking---the ultimate incontrovertible confirmation of the MSM partisan agenda.

"Chad Clanton, a spokesman for the Democratic presidential candidate,"

Nice try, Chadboy, spokesman number what is it, 35? 40? Don't quit your day job, if you have one.

Remember that in March of 1970 Cambodia had a coup and Lon Nol became Premier and was sympathetic to the US....I have that "seared" in my mind because I took in part of the Consulate staff just a couple of days after the event, probably on about the 20th of March....so after that time-line US forces could freely operate in Cambodia.

"I was in Cambodia, sir. I worked along the border,"

"I think I made it very clear that I was on the border, which is exactly where I was for three months. I was about 100 yards from Cambodia," O'Neill said in clarifying the June 16, 1971, conversation with Nixon.

From what I understand, it is clear from the tape that O'Neil and Nixon were refering to the Cambodian border region, not actually going inside Cambodia. Stripped of all context, it looks shady, but even a cursory examination shows it not to be anything interesting. Once again, the media is inventing news.

This is reminiscient of the 'Facts are stupid things' quote, where Reagan's following clarification was ignored, and the press ran with the original misstatement ad naseum.

Elizabeth Wolf - how about we investigate your political ties there missy.

You are no journalist, reporter, nor anything worthwhile except a RAT HACK who needs to discover first hand the ins and outs of the unemployment line!

Kerry's campaign has acknowledged that he may not have been in Cambodia on Christmas Eve of 1968, as he has previously stated. The campaign says Kerry does recall being on patrol along the Cambodia-Vietnam border on that date, although it's unclear if he crossed into Cambodia.

Actually the "campaign" floated the idea that he was in Cambodia on another date too. Anyway, the reporter is disingenuous in relying on the "campaign" rather than requesting access to all relevant records.

If we actually knew what Kerry's military service records said we would know what was in error, wouldn't we?

For some reason Kerry doesn't want to release the records. I wonder why.

They are talking in an echo chamber, and they think they are convincing.

Normal people hear what O'Neill said, and they get it. They hear what Kerry said, and they get that too. They know what Kerry did when he got home, and they get that too.

O'Neill is solid, he is honest as the day is long, his story doesn't waver, and people can see him stating his case calmly while his attackers are beyond hysterical.

Kerry is toast. If they are down to slicing and dicing O'Neill's words to produce a falsehood where there isn't one, then they are over. Someone needs to tell them, gently, or else we will tell them less gently a couple of months from now.

This was discussed on Hannity and Colmes last night.

O'Neil said he worked along the border. And he knew of this document.

Also there were two different times that O'Neil referenced on H and C last night.
