I wish SOMEONE from the "Pack of 500" WH press corps would actually look into the allegations. I surely don't know whether I believe Kerry's arm wound was self inflicted or not. These Vets, who served with honor, are asking that Kerry set the record straight by signing form 180 giving the press and the public access to his military records. Why he doesn't I am not sure. After being pressed by Russert, Bush made all of his records public.

I don't think it helps Kerry too much when he and his surrogates attack the attackers without offering a rebuttal of substance. I think the charges are starting to get traction. Unfit for Command sold out at Media Play back home ( A Blue Town in a Blue State) while My Life sits on the shelves. The book is #1 on Amazon and just came out.

I am troubled by someone whose >"vivid recollection" of Christmas eve places him in an entirely different country than where he was. If you have these kind of hallucinations, I am not sure you are fit for being around sharp objects, let alone "the button".

His retreat on his senate floor speech about "Christmas in Cambodia" may have the appearance of blood in the water to those who heretofore have seemed to sleepwalk through their coverage of KE04.
