#1 hope this one gets out! Could be the end of Kerry if enough fuss is kicked up about this,Should he not be booted from congress for this crime too

#2 He'd better arrange for "I don't recall" lessons from the Hilldabeast

#3 The "I can't remember" defense.
Interesting how some folks can't remember a thing about an event or era when put on the spot, but can write and publish a 300 page book covering the same subject.

#4 Let me get this right. John F Kerry attended a meeting where the assination of U.S. Senators were discussed and, while he did not support it, did not report it to the authorities and continued to support the group?

And the media is not picking this up? But they go into great detail (over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.. you get the idea) again about Bushs attendence at National Guard in Alabama?

Is there something wrong here? Anyone? Hello?

#5 What if John Kerry was one of the informants?

I'm just asking, but it would explain a) why Kerry didn't call the FBI (they were already in), b) why he resigned (cover close to being blown, perhaps) c) why he's waffled and dissembled about this all these years (don't want to be the stoolie).

#6 So this will be the lead story - above the fold - in the NYT, WaPo, LAT, etc., right? Also CNN and all the networks? They'll rag on it for weeks, right?

No?

Tap-tap. Nope, surprise meter didn't budge.

#5 Steve White: You're cute when you're trying to defend Kerry with your "what-if." Naive, but cute. :-p

#7 SW is possibly right! another example of being on both sides of every issue!

#8 SW - He could have been. But why then is he denying it now - 33-odd years later? You would think that revealing it now would show him to be Hero.

And he did continue to support the group and would 'speak for them'....

#9 You would think that revealing it now would show him to be Hero.

But what would it do to his standing with the Democrat base?

It would also be the ultimate waffle. Not even Benedict Arnold backstabbed both sides during the Revolution.

#11 Yes you are right - it would be the ultimate waffle wouldn't it? But he did continue to support the group even after he resigned the leadership.
