Blankley's Well-Balanced Article on the Swift Boats
The veterans involved, both for and against Kerry, seem believable. Now, the fact that Kerry is trying to attack them personally instead of going directly after the charges doesn't sit well. Kerry basicly said he and these comrades committed atrocities when Kerry returned home. In light of that backdrop, it seems to add insult to injury to attack these people who he already attacked. Many of them are Democrats. But if they are lying, it is probably because they are still upset with the activist Kerry of yesterday. That doesn't mean the charges are true. But the plausibility of them is high.
