Seems they played it unedited out here in the AZ desert anyway. And seems my much earlier post had it all "bracketed" (an old military term some here will understand) pretty well... :)
O'Neill had Ted back pedaling from the get-go and never let up. Like I said b4: "...like a bug!"
Remember, the "after action report" that Terrible Ted kept trying to cite would have been written by none other than one Lt(jg) Kerry as the "mission commander" or whatever term the navy used... what a credible source! And O'Neill as much as said "Ted, put that piece of fiction where the sun don't shine."
Key line of the night: "You didn't interview our people, of course...." and Ted looked like he'd been poleaxed!
To me at least, it seemed like Ted found out way too late that he'd messed with the wrong man.
In the cyclonic swirl of the cosmic journalistic garbage grinder is that Ted I hear hollering: "Don't worry Dan, I got your back!"
Bwahahahahahahaaa......
What is particularly interesting is that he is taking the word of the Vietnamese, and doing it very quickly, over the word of US officers.
Ted Baxter?
The interview was surreal, Ted was getting pummeled repeatedly
He reminded me of those arcade games were a set of prairie dogs pop up out of the hole and WHAM! you hit it with the hammer
