"He who is not very strong in memory should not meddle with lying."

~~ Michel de Montaigne (1533 - 1592) French essayist

[Wild Irish Rogue]

On page 106 of " John F Kerry, Blah,Blah," by Michael Kranish, it says that Rassmann was a
" bobbing target as he dodged bullets whizzing by him."
" He dove to the bottom of the canal and stayed under for as long as he could, but,
was shot at each of the five times he returned to the surface."
Jacques Cousteau Rassmann has bullets whizzing by him,
he's hiding from the enemy by diving to the " bottom " of the canal-
but, apparently, when he surfaces, unstead of trying to lay low and avoid calling attention to himself-
he lets loose with a string of curses that somehow the enemy ignores and
only Kerry can hear-over the sound of the 3 and a half miles of enemy fire that he claims was coming from both sides of the river-while he's fleeing in his swift boat.

Kerry either is in the early stages of Alzheimers, is a pathological liar or is mentally ill.
Perhaps all three.

Kerry says Special Forces Lt. Jim Rassmann fell out of boat

Wow! Goon Show moment

Seagoon: what happened to Little Jim?

Bluebottle: He's fallen in the water!

[dila813]

That boy Kerry can sure lie a streak.

If you look at the WP graphic that would have meant that Kerry had made a hard turn into the shore. The graphic shows Kerry's boat only making left turns.

Where is his other description of Rassmann falling off some other boat?

[Redleg Duke]

Yeah, as Kerry paniced and turned his sorry ass out of the AO, anyone not holding on was going to be left behind.

What a pathetic POS!

[Ann Archy]

YOU, Mr. VanBuren MUST be a LIAR!! Both Heroes...Kerry AND Rassman has said that The Green Beret, Mr. Rassman was BLOWN off the boat!!! NEVER have I heard the good hero, Sen. Kerry say anything but that he saved Rassman' life...with a BLEEDING ARM for cripes's sake!!

And YOU...you come along and POST the Congressional RECORD Of Se, Kerry saying Rassman FEL off the boat when Kerry took off!!

HOW DARE YOU...photo=shoppig the Congressioanal RECORD!! Why...it makes a LIAR out of what Kerry has said for two years AND what the jolly and GRATEFUL (and gainfully employed by Kerry) Mr. Rassman has said! You sir, are a SCOUNDREL!!! (we LOVE scoundrels)...why it could TORPEDO the good, honest man Sen Kerry!! /SARCASM

"A mine exploded under our boat sending it two feet into the air."

Somebody please explain to me how an aluminum hull boat that has a mine detonated under it with such force as to blow it two feet into the air (an send a doggie flying) would not suffer such severe hull damage as to render the boat incapable of maneuvering as Kerry stated. Me thinks there is another lie here.

"He literally had swear words with tracers on them."

Literally?

Geez. Whadda maroon.

[nopardons]

Good grief! Just how many different versions are there?

[Sir Gawain]

This is an old story, and I thought the year was 1986? Anyway, this version has been cited since the beginning or so as being another version. There are plenty of posts on FR about it from at least a week ago.

[Salvation]

Certainly a different story.
