On the Christmas-Eve-in-Cambodia lie, JustOneMinute has found the speech that Kerry did indeed give on the floor of the Senate in which he claimed to have been sent illegally into Cambodia. JOM seems to think that because Kerry didn't specifically mention Nixon in the speech, that Kerry's off the hook some-how. I disagree, and have said from the start that confusing which president ordered you on a mythical illegal mission isn't nearly the problem as inventing a mythical illegal mission to begin with. The point is that Kerry was never sent to Cambodia, and the evidence that he wasn't sent there and never entered Cambodian waters is pretty overwhelming. He appears to have made up the episode to advance his argument on the Senate floor against the Contras, proving that he is willing to invent personal history to serve personal ambition, a blow to his "Vietnam era" credibility which is large --if any reporter will ask him whether he has ever argued that he was ever sent into Cambodia, and if so, why did he invent such a story.
