Some vets challenge Kerry’s medals

Some of John Kerry’s Vietnam War compatriots are questioning the circumstances of how Kerry was awarded one of the three Purple Hearts he received in 1968.

The Kerry campaign responded it has been 35 years since the medals were awarded and no one raised the issue before Kerry got involved in the race for the White House.

...

Kerry’s campaign contends Swift Boat Veterans for Truth is an organization created for this year’s election to destroy Kerry’s record.

“It’s really a sign of desperation about the support veterans are giving Kerry that a group of Republicans are doing this,” said Michael Meehan, of the Kerry campaign. “Putting a lie on TV doesn’t make it true.”

Sooooo, does that mean no one should believe what they saw and heard in Boston last week, Mikey?
