What fairly tales might those be? You're acting on your
faith in Kerry from a distance. The Swift Vets are acting
on personal observations and experience.

The Swift Vets are acting on personal observations and
experience.

They SAY that they are. I don't buy it.

The testimony of those closest to Kerry at the time of the
events agrees with his story, as does all available
contemporaneous official documentation. All of those who
contradict the official record were at some remove from Kerry,
either in distance or time or both, and nearly every day,
another Swift Vet comes forward to complain that O'Neill is
lying, or admits that his affidavit is pure hearsay, or is
caught lying about other important matters, either related or
unrelated, or that O'Neill is using his name without his
permission.

Moreover, Nixon had access to all Kerry's official records 35
years ago when he hired on O'Neill to pursue him, and was
unable to find any dirt in them -- this at a time when any
such dirt would have been fresh and most readily available.

Nixon was not one to leave dirt unused if it was available for
use.

Occam's Razor says the simplest solution is the most likely;
in this case, the simplest solution is that O'Neil and his co-
conspirators have been holding a nagging grudge against Kerry
for 35 years, and now, toward the end of their lives, are
willing to lie brutally in a final effort to satisfy that
grudge and deny Kerry the Presidency, knowing that they will
be well taken care of by Bush's corporate cronies whether or
not they are successful.

It doesn't make sense - why would he wear a *unit* citation
for a unit photo?

What "unit photo"? The photo in the Bush library is an
individual photo.

Anyway, who knows why? Perhaps he felt as though he didn't
look distinguished enough without it. Who knows what went
through the cocaine-and-alcohol-addled brain of that young
second lieutenant at the time?

Only he can answer the question.
