From this article:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1095461/posts


"Wade said Kerry used the word "crooked" to describe the personal attacks he has endured. Those attacks, he said, included doctored photos of Kerry falsely showing him protesting the Vietnam War with Jane Fonda and wrongly portraying him shooting a prisoner during his stint in the Navy. "

Apparently you're getting to him........LOL.

Good hunting.

And the fact that the "outraged" family members of 911 were rabid Bush-haters never made the light of day, until we uncovered it here on FreeRepublic. And it STILL hasn't made it into the mainstream media, much less Time magazine.

Gardner said yesterday that he wonders whether speaking critically about Kerry led to his losing his job as a home inspection field manager. The Brinkley story said Gardner "claims he works at Millennium Services." Within hours of the publication of the article on Time's website, Gardner said, he was fired from his job as a home inspection field manager. -----------------------------------

Brinkley has a vested interest in HIS version of the story.

If I am not mistaken, since that book came out, there have already been a couple of things that have come out that are NOT in the book -- the one that springs to mind is some story about Kerry saving some guy from drowning? -- and I myself saw Brinkley on MSNBC saying he didn't know those stories.

Brinkly writing this Time article reminds me of Bob Woodruff and Carl Bernstein; every single time there is any HINT of scandal in the government, you can count on CNN to drag them out to pontificate about how "this isn't nearly as bad as Watergate.

Since they believe they OWN that story and a bigger scandal would threaten their place in what they perceive as "the" biggest story in the history of this country.

I would expect so but why would they make this story public? Usually the Dems simply ignore this kind of stuff out of existence.

And then there is an appearance of scandal with Mr.Gardner being fired from his job soon after the article was released which would be a further stirring of the pot...Dems always consider the reactions to their actions so none of this makes sense yet.

I saw Brinkley on CSpan and you would have thought that Kerry was the messianic Philosopher King. WOW and what a deeeeep thinker and with a conscience for all mankind was a a very gay presentation.

Well we all know how Time Magazine feels about Rush Limbaugh:

Whereas even Ted Kazenski was a "genuis":

From the TIME article:When informed of Gardner’s accusations Kerry, campaigning in Texas, simply stated they weren’t true. “He deserves respect because he served our country well,” Kerry says of Gardner. “I left the country thinking well of Gardner and even tried to find him several times. But his stories are made up. It’s sad, but that’s the way it goes in war, and especially in politics.” And then he added: “But don’t ask me. I know the guys, my other crewmates, and they’ll set the record straight.”

This ending paragraph from the Time article speaks volumes regarding both Kerry and Brinkley. Kerry's faux reaction: "he deserves respect because he served our country well... I even trie to find him several times... but his stories are made up... It's sad."

And the way Brinkley presents this it is clear: he's doing whatever he can to protect both Kerry and his worthless tripe book which has just been published. Some "historian". Two losers -- and I'm not referring to Gardner.
