Liberal journalists have no interest in facts.

the fact that the meeting terminated his association with the Vietnam Veterans Against the War

This part isn't quite right. Freepers have dug up info that Kerry was in a leadership position even in 1973, I believe. One photo of Kerry watching Nixon declare the end of the war on TV captions Kerry as head of the VVAW.

...dubbed "the Phoenix project"...

A spin I've heard on this is that just one zealous person brought up the topic of assassinations and it was immediately voted down. Remember in debates, that this was called "The Phoenix Project." One does not give a symbolic name to someone's offhand comment that is summarily rejected. This was a project.
