It looks like the media is trying to help Blumenthal out and help him parse words because he said he served in Vietnam and then he said served as a Marine during the Vietnam era later. The guy knew he had crossed the line that is why he came out and said he “misspoke”. You’d bet your bottom dollar that if a conservative Republican had said any such thing we’d never hear the end of it.
Agree, the enemedia is going all out for Blumenthal. Hopefully there’s enough veterans in CT that he won’t get away with this.
