Not only was he not there at Christmas, according to Corsi he was NEVER within even 50 miles of Cambodia!
Excellent,Puppage!
nooilforpaciofists.blogspot.com-led me to this interesting old story.
It actually gets worse and worse for Kerry.
He claimed that he routinely went on many clandestine missions into Cambodia- he had no choice, but, was ordered to by superiors.
The Kerry campaign is going to have to lump the AP, US News and the WP in with the SBVFT- all are liars, I guess.

Mission to Cambodia
by Kevin Whitelaw | May 08 '00
"Sen. John Kerry made his first forays into Cambodia during the Vietnam War as a Navy lieutenant on clandestine missions to deliver weapons to anticommunist forces."
" When he returned last week, the mission was official, but dicey nonetheless..."

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Navy Lt. John Kerry knew he had no business steering his Mekong River patrol boat across the border into Cambodia, but orders were orders.
A quarter-century later, Sen. John Kerry says newly declassified documents have convinced him fellow servicemen captured on such trips were left behind at war's end...
Perhaps only stir-fried? Guess Kerry's tour was medium-rare instead of well done...
The Kerry Kampaign is a mass grave for the truth...
Wow.
Anybody hear the poll on Rush....I must have missed it.
He was going to have a poll on the SwiftVets impact.

My fave photo is you with Ted Kennedy. Do you know if that was before he crashed (airplane) and hurt his back?
Kerry is lying plain and simple (as if that is something new) ....if there were supplies or insertions "across the fence" as it was known as(you haven't heard him use that term which he would have if he had been there) it would have been done by helicopter. What kind of fool would run a boat 50 miles @ 20 knots in shallow waterways with the chance of getting captured when it could be delivered to the exact spot it was needed at 120 knots. Liars like criminals are so stupid. John you messed in your mess kit and you're not going to walk away from this lie!! Vietnam Vets are going to win this one after having lived with the results of your lies for over 30 years.
Sure. Now you are going to tell me that there is no Santa Clause!
I guess that Cambodia was so secret that John Scary didn't know that he was there.
As an Army veteran I know that a number of imposters attended the Chicago Welcome Home Parade in 1986 claiming to be Vietnam vets. Us real vets joked about how some of the imposters were so young that they would have had to be drummer boys during the war!
Kerry reminds me of a certain type of combat wanna- be but never was, that would go to the local Army-Navy store and buy medals and rank insignia and wear them on their uniforms to impress their civilian friends and girls at the local bar.
I don't believe that the Khmer Rouge had even been formed at that time, had they? How could they be firing on him?
Now, Kerry's campaign is stumbling all over themselves trying to do damage control on this one! Now, they are saying that actually Kerry just said that he was "near" Cambodia!
Well, then, his speech on the Senate floor and all his articles now do not make any sense! He is a crazy man then, because his whole point in saying he was in Cambodia for Christmas, was that "his own government was denying that he was in Cambodia"...so, what is his point, and his argument, that he was "really" trying to make on the Senate floor? Since his government wasn't covering up anything, and had not in fact "betrayed" him....???
He used a lie, to condemn someone for lying! What a guy!
tell me how a memory that never happened gets "seared" in one's brain?.
You repeat the lie so many times that even you begin to believe it!
The Dems were fools not to follow this advice. Anyone who questioned his service would have looked like a creep. They should have done what you said, and left it alone; and if Kerry really wanted to be President, he should have apologised for all the accusations he made in the '70's about war crimes and "atrocities"...he should have plead youthful exuberance....
I tell you, the Dems want us to believe that they would be better negotiators with other countries, when they go ahead and plan such a foolish campaign? When they run such a foolish candidate?
We found out after clinton, that integrity, honesty and Character DOES matter.

A First-Term TED KENNEDY crashed in a small plane in Mid-1964, breaking his back. He came on a Congressonal Junket in October 1965 to Vietnam to survey Refugee Re-Location after effects caused by our American Military Operations there. This was all before he went NUTS.
