Yeah, so?

You got one guy who sounds a little flakey in there.

Otherwise, you have a book of 60 eyewitnesses giving their accounts of how Kerry lied on everything, plus 250 signed affidavits supporting the statements in the book - compared to the nine men who were on Kerry's particular boat (they operated in groups), which were only with Kerry for two or three weeks per assignment. Out of 25 officers who served with Kerry, only one supports Kerry and 17 say he's a loose cannon and is unfit for command.

So what it comes down to is, the word of 10 men who barely knew Kerry compared to 250 who observed his actions and 60 who were direct eyewitnesses to the events concerned - all of whom were there.

I heard the doctor who treated Kerry on the radio today. The individual who signed the medical report worked under him. They have no idea how he got the purple heart for a tiny piece of metal half an inch by one eith of an inch just under his skin.

You better read the book before you decide who is lying - 10 men on the democratic side versus 250 on the consevative side. They're not making any money from the book and some are even registered democrats.

One guy who's flaky ???

First of all, he is credited as the co-writer along with O'Neill who has already been pretty much completely discredited as to his motives.

Then, you have Elliot, the guy who reccomended Kerry for several of the medals. He signed the affidavit, then he goes and publically says that he should have never signed the affidavit then he signs another affidavit saying what the original affidavit said. Meanwhile, he helped Kerry campaign in a previous election, apparently having no problem backing the man.

Then the doctor you quote, saw him on TV last night and saw him debunked pretty well. I think it was John Stewart that pointed out that the doctor's name does not show up as the attending doctor on any of Kerry's medical visits. Further, if the wound was so superficial and so unremarkable, why the fuck does this particular doctor remember it 35 years later. I mean, he must have attended to many many wounded people in Vietnam. Many of who had extremely serious wounds, but he remembers clearly that Kerrys wound was nothing.

The guys in the swift boat organization served when Kerry served, nothing more. They did not necessarilly serve alongside Kerry or see him or know him personally.

I will take the word of 9 men who served directly under Kerry over 250 paid off shills any fucking day of the week.
