Just keep putting the information out here and someone will connect the dots.

"I would take anything printed in the British tabloids with a HUGE grain of salt. "
Indeed. Many on FR are so eager to find a scandal on Kerry that they will listen to anyone. Everything about this story has the ring of the tabloids and the blog world. Everything reported has been unsourced. This is a bogus story, and I said so when it first broke on Drudge.
It's going to embarrass those who broke it and repeated it, and it's going to embarrass FR, since searching for info on this story brings up FR links, and will continue to do so.
I don't know who initiated the story. I don't care. I do care if it casts negative impressions of this site, and that's sure to happen.
Kerry denies it. The woman denies it. That, my friends, is the end of it. The woman did not work for Kerry...she's a journalist. The investigation ends with those denials, since no law could have been broken, even if some affair had happened.
Surely there's some real issue that can be used to attack Kerry. This one's bogus.

**It's gratuitous -- like a coded message embedded in the statement of a hostage** You may be on to something, particularly if the tape was her insurance policy to be played only if something happened to her.

You know, I don't think we really have any right to pick this story apart but....
The quote of the parents - We appreciate how Senator Kerry has handled this. If there was no truth to it, how else would he have handled it?? Sounds odd. Like they are just glad he didn't cast aspersions on their daughter.
To: mass55th
if he hosted Rush's program while he was in detox, then I'm sure it was because the labor pool to cover all that open time was limited, and they had to get people with radio experience Every conservative talk show host would walk over burning coals for a mile, to host his show. Rush owns the show, and his imprimatur is on every guest host.

"Actually, the money will probably come from the wife's foundation - Tides Foundation."
Just to clarify for accuracy, Teresa is in charge of the Heinz foundation. The Heinz foundation gave at least $6 million dollars to the Tides Foundation, and they have formed some kind of partnership in Pennsylvania.

"Then why didn't ABC come out and say, not true. We never did an interview with that woman, Miss Polier.
"
Just hang on a bit. They will. If I remember correctly, that "interview" story was an unattributed statement in one of the tabloids that got picked up by other tabloids. Go back and see where the "interview" story first appeared.

3 Last questions. Where is the "friend" of hers that was blabbing? What were the "nasty" details that wouldn't go away?That's what I want to know. I had heard that Alex Polier had written letters to this friend, evidently describing the affair.
When will this friend come forward and show these letters.

"Everything reported has been unsourced."
The interview with the parents is not unsourced. You don't like the source, but it is not unsourced.
BTW, everything about the Monica Lewinsky story was unsourced. Ditto Juanita Broaddrick.

"
What ever happened to the blond model that was originally romantically tied to Kerry? Her picture was all over Free Republic last week."
Are you referring to the one that dropped of the "resume" in th elate evening back in the late 90's?
If so I don't know.

Thanks for correcting me. That is the danger of not listening closely enough.
Now I am curious about this bar episode. Did anyone ever publish those pick-up lines? I could use a laugh.
To: propertius
I have established, from reliable sources, that Matt Rosenberg, the author of this story, is based in Nairobi AND HAS BEEN A FRIEND OF ALEX POLIER FOR SEVERAL YEARS. Not surprising as well, given that both of them have a connection as emplyees with the AP. Perhaps they had a working relationship.
You mentioned that Alex runs with a racy crowd, i.e., one that flouts certain laws. Perhaps, if there is a Alex Polier / John F. Kerry connection, it is not related to sex, but to other potentially scandalous conduct.
Anyway, at this point, I think the best tack by conservatives is to use the "development" of this story to illustrate the media's double standard; and to continue to point out that the Pollier/Kerry story originated with a Democrat.

While you're in your usual condescending mode here on FR, please note there has been no denial of the sleazeball comment, nor a denial of any of the quotes in the article by the parents.

"disappear down the memory hole"
I don't think so! I think it will cost mommy a LOT of money to destroy that video. Of course, a lot will depend on the integrity of the station .. which isn't saying much.

"I heard Rush state some details about the allegations I had not heard before. He said the story going around was that Kerry hit on this woman and she wrote down his "cheezy" pickup lines and read them back to him."I think you have this story mixed up thinking it came from Alex Polier. But I heard it was related to some actress who Kerry had tried to date and she was turned off by his pickup line.
