Kerry Should Be Begging The Media To Cover Swift Boat Vet Story

"If [the Alston] story at Captain's Quarters were ever to be proven true by the mainstream media, John Kerry would likely be toast. However, if even one of the stories of those alleging Kerry lied about his Vietnam experience is shown to be a deliberate untrue smear against Kerry, his campaign would have something to point to in response to all additional allegations regarding his Vietnam service. So, instead of sending out the Lanny Davis types to shout down the allegations and denounce the alleging veterans as liars and smear artists, it would seem the Kerry camp would beg the NYT and Washington Post and television networks to take a good close look at the allegations and reveal the truth once and for all. But that would only work if the truth were on his side."

On March 13, 1969, a mine detonated near Kerry's boat, slighting wounding Kerry in the right arm. He was awarded his third Purple Heart and a Bronze Star for valor. PCF (Patrol Craft Fast) 94 crew in March 1969, from left, Gene Thorson, David Alston, Thomas Belodeau, Del Sandusky, and John Kerry.

David Alston is the black fellow (in case you've been out of the loop)

Is this photo semi-staged where some served under Kerry and Alston was an add on for political correctness. Remember, in Viretnam JK often mouthed off about being president some day

Kerry doesn't have to beg. They are already doing it.

According to Newsweek's assistant managing editor Evan Thomas, "There's one other base here, the media. Let's talk a little media bias here. The media, I think, wants Kerry to win...."

Sorry. Game, set, and match - - the truth loses.
