They claim he did not come under heavy enemy fire as his medal citations state. But other veterans of the ``brown water navy'' who witnessed the fighting, along with Navy documents from that time, have backed Kerry's version of events.
So, now we see what the democrat media allies have decided their "standard faux fax phrases" and soundbites are going to be: "Official records" (written according to Kerry and by Kerry (in most cases) are acceptable (unless they show Bush served honorably and completely!) and "other vet's" (never mentioning that these "other vets" also are democrats inside Kerry's campaign) are the ONLY "true" sources.
Anybody who says anything else is engaged "in a right-wing, replublican-funded, mean and nasty smear campaign organized inside the White House and directed by Carl Rowe."
