So James Carville or some other liberal lackey goes out and finds ONE guy to talk about George Bush and what he didn't do when he was in the National Guard. And the media runs with it for more than a day - they trip over themselves trying to get the story out there everywhere.
Meanwhile 240 veterans of the Vietnam War (Swift Boat Veterans for Truth), many with medals including Purple Hearts, are treated by the media like they don't exist.
Nah, the media doesn't have an agenda.
By the way, here's part of Kerry's testimony before Congress:
"I would like to talk, representing all those veterans, and say that several months ago in Detroit, we had an investigation at which over 150 honorably discharged and many very highly decorated veterans testified to war crimes committed in Southeast Asia, not isolated incidents but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command....
They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country."
Here's the "war hero" disgracing himself as he testifies in Congress accusing veterans and soldiers still over there of acting like Genghis Khan.
