"One minor clarification...the Paris trip was not a honeymoon, they had their honeymoon in Jamaica according to ABC News Notes"

You're right, but the BG reporter, Michael Kranish, must have known this, since he has written about Kerry's honeymoon before:

"For his honeymoon, Kerry chose a telling location: the Pershing family's Jamaica home. Richard Pershing, a close friend of Kerry's and a fellow member of Yale's Skull and Bones society, had been killed in Vietnam."

What I suspect happened was that they went to Paris right after their honeymoon--so that Kerry could sharpen his anti-war chops ASAP.

So now the idea is to say he was just in Paris on his honeymoon and just happened to run into the Vietcong and NVN delegations. LOL!

What I suspect is more likely is that Kerry went to Paris in March of 1971, the same time that the VVAW was meeting there along with Fonda. Kerry speaks French and he was on the VVAW executive board. I would find it odd that he would not be there despite the fact that he doesn't appear in the picture. Also, the fact that he mentions his meeting to Congress and recites Madame Binh's demands make it sound like the meeting was more recent than 1970.

This could be a significant finding if we can pin Kerry down in Paris at the same time as the VVAW and Fonda. Meehan's response tries to gloss over the meeting as being private and gives the impression it occurred in 1970. Kerry and his handlers should be asked to give the date(s) of his meetings in Paris.
