To me the fact that he apparently did not report the meeting to the Feds is damning regardless of his subsequent protest resignation. He had guilty knowledge of a conspiracy as far as I can see. I will now stop playing lawyer because this is too bazaar for me.

This thing won't be decided on the legalisms anyway--if the public ever get wind of it, that is.
It will probably come down to whether Kerry should have "ratted on his pals" versus, "he had a moral obligation to report this discussion."
The Kerry camp is already trying to palm it off as just a footnote to history and nothing of interest. It will be interesting to see if the media accepts that. You can be sure they wouldn't if it were a Republican candidate for the Presidency.
I mean, in the grand scheme of things, I think most people would find this more significant than say attending 9 days worth of National Guard meetings (which Bush DID attend). But of course the media have a different agenda from regular people.

He had guilty knowledge of a conspiracy as far as I can see. Think about this: by his own admission (now that he's copping to the KC meeting) he's been in the presence of "officially sanctioned murderers (Vietnam) and conspiracy to murder members of the United States Congress -- and he NEVER advised anybody of either.
