Interesting that Kerry or his own lawyers are not calling the Swiftboat vets liars, could it be because then the Swiftees could sue Kerry for libel and get discovery of his records..?
That's the same reason Clinton never personally denied raping Juanita Broderick.
Kerry will not personally call these men liars. Nor will Kerry have his own attorney call them liars. So he gets the DNC lawyers and the Kerry/Edwards lawyers to call them liars and insulates himself from scrutiny and libel.
