A direct hit, and the White House didn't even fire a shot.
I don't know if the Bush base is shaky, I think it's been quite rock-ribbed all along.
I mean, Kerry has essentially set himself up to fall. It is his own undoing.

Now we get to see if there's any pride left in the newsroom. Do any of these writers, reporters and producers resent getting played by Kerry? If so, payback will be stiff. Many on this board have predicted exactly that. Expect the dogs to turn on Kerry by sept if he cant clear himself of these allegations

The absurdity of almost killed by our own allies in a country in which President Nixon claimed there were no American troops was very real.Not to mention the absurdity of listening to an address by a President who wasn't. On Christmas 1968, LBJ was still President.

"Why all the attention? Simply put, if John Kerry can be conclusively demonstrated to have lied about aspects of his Vietnam service, the media has to ask what else has he been lying about. The voters have to ask if he can be trusted. In short: Free fall."
The media has to do no such thing and they will prove it by not asking a single question on this issue. His article is right on the money, but the media is going to ignore this story.

"Yup, those Asians are big on celebrating Christmas, huh John." Actually, before the commies took over there were quite a few Catholic Vietnamese. Probably they've all been re-educated or eliminated by now thanks to Kerry and his pals.

That is bizarre. "Scary" Kerry is one strange dude.

And expect Hitlary Klintoon to step up to the plate, which is what Bubba and Bitch have wanted all along. The DIMS played switcharoo in NJ, why not now? Scary times.

Exactly, and they'll see to it that this story is buried, maybe even spiked.

...and as recently as June 2003 was regaling a Washington Post reporter with a story of how he had ferried a CIA man secretly into Cambodia...It was Martin Sheen.

a story of how he had ferried a CIA man secretly into Cambodia
Apocalypse Now wasnt released in until 1979, so it couldnt be the basis of Hanoi Johns tale. Could he have been influenced by some of the veterans tall tales from the Winter Soldier meetings? The phony vets had more - not better, just more - hair raising stories than the real ones.
I encountered such a vet in a support group once. He claimed to have been an ex-SEAL (SEAL was just making the grade as heroes for movies at the time) with the year long mission of assassinating AMERICAN Generals in Viet Nam on orders from Washington. According to him he killed literally dozens. His problem was - other than we would have run out of Generals - that he kept confusing the names of providences and villages. The names would change with the telling. What ever name was in the news or the latest Hollywood release he used.
He wasn't with us long.

I wasn't aware there were that many. Thanks for making me do my homework.
Apparently 10% or so after the Tonkin Gulf resolution. Perhaps a million Catholics migrated south to avoid persecution. Diem was Catholic.

To: JohnHuang2
The CIA Cambodian story is important for several reasons: (1) it is contained in a Washington Post article on Kerry published June 6, 2003; (2) it directly quotes Kerry; (3) it describes Kerry opening his briefcase and removing a green camouflage hat (THE PROP) which he calls "My good luck hat,...." "Given to me by a CIA guy as we went in for a secret mission in Cambodia." The use of THE PROP by Kerry is intended to reinforce his claim to have been on a secret mission in Cambodia. This is no misstatement. This is out-and-out dissembling, or lying, if you prefer. It shows, more clearly, than mere words, the pathological nature of Kerry, and the lenghts to which he will go to self-promote his Viet Nam experiences. In light of this Lie, it is fair to ask what else as Kerry lied about.

I expect the Bush-hating media to give Kerry a pass. It's a given, knowing the media has been helping to prop Kerry up on his feet like a drunk prom date being shuffled home out the door.

Jesus, what a fugging JOKE this guy is. Not everyone can be a Chesty Puller or an Audie Murphy in combat, but to out and out LIE, KNOWING that the facts are easily checked... Kerry is obviously stupider than I originally thought.

What hasn't John Kerry lied about?
He committed sedition and treason.
He is a Senator.
He married money.

"No, I'm going to have to put my money on the Bush-hatred factor. Even being embarassed by their guy isn't going to be enough to make the liberal commie MSM turn around and start reporting fairly about Kerry's Grand Adventures in Vietnam (not to mention his pitiful record as a Senator)."
I think you're right. The left isn't interested in the truth. They aren't interested in reality. They aren't interested in morality. If they were, they would've admitted that their system of government doesn't work and abandoned their socialist tendencies a long time ago. And they would've asked Bill Clinton to resign in 1998.
Liberals are interested in one thing, and one thing only: power.

The DIMS played switcharoo in NJ, why not now?It sounds incredible, yet I have considered that as well.

You are 1000% correct. That is why they flipped out when Bush won and a bazillion recounts PROVE IT! They just cannot understand why a majority of mainstream Americans are saying "HELL NO" to their socialism! They have been so used to swallowing the party line for so long, that rational/critical thinking is no longer part of their psychological makeup.
