"at the moment it is a "he said, they say" match."
Kerry could prove his side by releasing ALL his military records. Why doesn't he?
Anyone with any common sense knows the answer: that what's in those records would prove what the SwiftVets are saying, and thus would be much worse for Kerry, than the words of the Vets.
Does anyone really think, that if Kerry's records would DISPROVE the "allegations" of the SwiftVets he wouldn't release them?
O'Reilly wasn't born yesterday. Why isn't he calling for Kerry to release his records to prove his side?
Because he believes Kerry is a war hero, proof or no proof, and the rest of the people in the country that disagree with him are labeled as kooks. We are incapable of looking out for ourselves, you see. Without master O'Rielly to tell us what we should think, the world is doomed!
I don't know if kerry's records will actually help the swiftvets. And kerry is playing a good game of holding on to them. He'll probably release them at the last minute, and if there isn't anything big, we'll look pretty stupid and we will have wasted a lot of time on his records. I think the best thing that can be done is to buy Unfit for Command and pass it around.
