Don't know if I can stand this. Just had dinner.

Oh, the General will be interviewed by Meyers and not by Chrissie. Coming up next.

Admiral telling Myers he and Kerry were in the boat that night, he thought he saw something move. His gun jammed, so did Kerry's, and Kerry fired a grenade launcher too close to the boat. He realized Kerry nicked himself, there was no enemy fire - ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN OF IT. "He did not deserve his first purple heart, you can characterize it any way you want."

Of course Myers has to mention that Schachte has no documentary proof of his claim. Shows a clip of Zaladonis claims that Schacte was not in the boat at all. Myers asks "Why no after action report?" of Schacte. Schacte: "Because there WAS no action."

That's their standard line. Another is that this has almost played out.

This guy comes across as very believable.

"...bulk of evidence supports Kerry on most issues...."
"Admiral claims....."

and yes...."he has no proof".

Bill Z. doesn't strike me as having a clear memory on this subject.

oh...now...what are the Adrmiral's motives?

Chris is ridiculous...maybe blah, blah, blah.

Sounds like Schacte is holding his own pretty well to me, Lisa. Forceful and definite. I wouldn't want to be the one to challenge this man's claim.

Now here comes Chris saying you can win a purple heart for flying shrapnel, "you don't have to be shot." Matthews: "How does he know they weren't being shot at?" Myers: "He says because there was no return fire." Matthews: "Well, maybe they actually shot and killed the guy!"

Sigh...pathetic.

Lots of nervous laughter from Chris. I think he knows Kerry is busted.

Ugh. Ron Reagan on to discuss this next. I think I'll go back to the radio now.

No after action report was written and the purple heart was awarded three months later. No hostil fire and the wound was self-inflicted. What a joke.

This is a good and fair report with lots of details. Ron Reagan is on now calling the Swifties liars. What a dog.

This Roger Simon from USA Today is claiming "This is just like the election of 1988 when nothing of importance was discussed." Ron Reagan: "No discussion of health care and important issues..."

I guess we know the latest talking points, eh?

Sorry President Reagan but your son is a punk ass sissy boy. Where the hell does this twit get off calling Vietnam Veterans "liars". Love to meet Ronny Boy some day in public.
