Didn't John Kerry himself offer to drop the gloves and it was Pickens who cried foul?

Good Lord, could some of the SwiftVet accusations actually not be true!

Have you been living a fantasy lie for the past 3 years?

What will you do?

Last I heard on the matter Kerry was vowing to disprove the alleged facts and donate the million to charity. That would send a clear, effective message to the doubters and be an honorable thing to do. What's taking him?

The beatings will continue until morale improves

Yes, and Pickens responded by instantly trying to change the scope of his initial offer. What a (filthy rich) looser...

I think Kerry has certainly left himself open to critics on his Vietnam record, but the smear campaign against him is a disgusting insult to everyone who fought in Vietnam.

Haven't multiple reviews of his medals by even the military shown his story is consistent?

Don't all but one of his surviving crewmates support the view he deserved them?

Simply pathetic.

I know very many Vietnam vets who think the smearing of Kerry was just even before the Swiftboat allegations. And none of them are insulted in the slightest.

Yes I think some of the accusations may be false, just waiting for someone to seize the opportunity given them to prove them false. If you hjold the position that some of the accusations are false you are also conceeding some are true. Good for you, you're coming around!
