Check out this Boston Globe article:
In a question-and-answer session before a Senate committee in 1971, John F. Kerry...asserted that 200,000 Vietnamese per year were being "murdered by the United States of America" and said he had gone to Paris and "talked with both delegations at the peace talks" and met with communist representatives.
Read the whole thing...he met with Madam Binh!

Note the extracted quote from Kerry, he had "gone to Paris and talked with BOTH DELEGATIONS at the peace talks". Both delegations. You instantly think that means he met with the North Viets AND the American delegation, right?

Nooooo. When questioned further by the Senate panel, Kerry said ""I have talked with both delegations at the peace talks, that is to say the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the Provisional Revolutionary Government [an arm of the North Viet gov't]". He DID NOT meet with American negotiators.

Funny how that Bush/National Guard story had more legs than a centipede, but Kerry's traitorous behavior gets barely a ripple.

It's confusing. Picking Kerry was one of two things for dems. They want him to lose for a hillary run in '08 or they didn't bother to check. Both seem implausible but then I have to remind myself, they are dim. Information like meeting with DRP and DRV should start setting up (kinda like jello) about July.

By the time we're finished with Kerry and he limps back to the senate he'll be defeated in the next senatorial race in Mass., if he has the chutzpah to run again. All those people in Boston certainly won't appreciate his dismissing FAA agents that tried to warn him about Logan Airport security. Hey who knows, maybe they'll finally dump Teddy too!
