Kerry's statements are proven FALSE by some members of the special forces, CIA etc. If you read up on Hugh Hewitt investigations together with Captain Quarters etc...NEVER were any Swiftboats used, because they were too noisy, big etc. The special missions were made with special boats, and besides - missions such as this were kept silent, and NEVER did anyone disgussed such in public. Kerry lies - as always, even his 'HAT' story was debunked. But hey - he's trying!!!
Your post indicated the "hat" story Kerry related has been debunked. (The one where a secret CIA operative gave him his hat on one of these "secret" missions) Can you share details or pass along a link? I hadn't heard that one.
To me, that's the link that has to be pursued here. If he has a physical artifact from these secret forays, cough it up and show the world.
He claimed he carried it around in his briefcase as a lucky charm. Let's see it.
Also, let's hear from Kerry himself a response on this and let's hear what these secret missions were. Sending out a spokesman who you can say got it wrong later doesn't cut it.
The conservative media needs to continue to pursue this story. It will unravel as more information comes out and Kerry will be exposed as making up a lie to cover up a 30-year-old lie.
You know what?
Everyone on Free Republic (and most anyone with a brain) can poke holes through Kerry's statements. They don't hold up to ANY scrutiny.
However, I'm concerned about the large numbers of American voters who accept that Kerry is a real war hero just because he said so.
The key to winning those people over is to show otherwise.
And the mainstream media is not doing their job. If the media were reporting this story properly, Kerry's approval ratings would be falling.
Yeah, but candidate Willard...er...Kerry has that mission seared into his memory ever since he saw Apocalypse Now.
