In an interview this morning on Fox and Friends, Kerry spokeman Jeh Johnson backed off of Democrat presidential nominee Senator John Kerry's repeated statements that he had spent Christmas 1968 on a secret mission in Cambodia.
Fox's Brian Kilmead asked Mr. Johnson whether Sen. Kerry would release the action report from January 20, 1969 regarding purported action in Cambodia.
Mr. Johnson said, "I believe you're referring to an incident that happened near Cambodia. Okay, well John Kerry has said on the record that he had a mistaken recollection earlier. He talked about a combat situation on Christmas Eve, 1968, which at one point he said occurred in Cambodia. He has since corrected the record to say it was someplace on a river near Cambodia and he is certain that at some point subsequent to that he was in Cambodia. My recollection, my understanding is he was not certain about that date.
Mr. Kilmead brought up Sen. Kerry's 1986 floor speech in the Senate where he talked about spending Christmas in Cambodia as being "seared---seared" in his memory.
Mr. Johnson replied, "I believe he's corrected the record to say it was someplace near Cambodia, but he is not certain whether it was actually in Cambodia but he is certain that there was some point subsequent to that that he was in Cambodia."
Mr. Johnson also repeated Sen. Kerry's canard that he left Yale in 1966 and turned down all options to further his education by choosing to serve his country. As was (barely) reported in March of this year, Sen. Kerry asked for and was denied a one year deferment to study in Paris.

Well not Cambodians, but it could be Chinese firing from one side of the Mekong in Tibet, and Vietnamese on the other in the South China Sea (it depends on whether you are looking side to side on the short dimension, or the long)
well, the weekend team is pretty weak! can't stand any of them!
I met a man that fought for the Union in the Civil War.He came to our school in 1947. My Uncle was gassed twice in WWI. My dad was in WWII. My brother was in the Vietnam war-though here in the USA. Now we have this "?????". All the men I met and knew, though they neither sought nor held public office, were better men than what this individual appears to be. I guess for our type of government we are to blame for the rise of this type of what-ever-it-is??. How sad is a dying Republic.
Anytime the synapse joining brain cells is overheated (seared) it causes a short circuit which sends the message into a category known to researchers as the descrambling chamber located in the cerebral cortex from whence it is sent to the medulla oblongata for remedial restructuring.
It frequently takes many years for this process to evolve so it is not surprising that traumatic experiences become muddled and disjointed.
You can read about the condition in my latest work published in the B&OP Journal.
(The "More Sensitive" War On Terror) ==== LOL! Good one. And more accurate, than we would like to believe.
I watch them in the mornings and it is rarely worth it anymore I am sad to say.
Thanks for the Ping, devolve!!!! kerry, verry sorry piece of work.

Kerry won't address his lies. His spokesmen do the heavy lifting every time he gets into trouble. He'll nuance his way through this, and people like that idiot O'Reilly, will say we're concentrating on the wrong war, that it's not important that Kerry is a baldfaced liar. O'Reilly needs to have his head examined.
Yes, but a side effect of all this is to keep Kerry on the defensive. He started his official campaign by stressing his military record, and that has been taken away from him.
Goos stuff.
