Around the country. A smear in Toronto Toronto Star - A Swift Boat smear campaign Attack ad labels war-hero Kerry a liar and coward But why would Bush supporters mention Vietnam? thestar.com A favorable opinion piece in the Providence RI paper - Philip Terzian: Which brothers to believe? projo.com A fair article out of Dallas, printed in the "Seattle Times" - Book, ads assail Kerry's military record By The Dallas Morning News and St. Louis Post-Dispatch seattletimes.nwsource.com A bad smear in the Missoulian - Real leaders stand by those who serve missoulian.com The Star Tribune piece brings up Cambodia - But at least one of the book's allegations has tied the campaign in linguistic knots. "Unfit for Command" accuses Kerry of inventing stories of being sent, illegally, across the Vietnamese border into Cambodia at a time when President Richard Nixon said U.S. forces were not in that nation. Jennifer Porter Gore, a spokeswoman for Kerry's Minnesota campaign, said, "We know John Kerry served on a swift boat that patrolled a river that was the border between Vietnam and Cambodia, so it's a bit of a stretch to say he wasn't in Cambodia." Kerry spokeswoman Tara McGuinness earlier told the St. Louis Post Dispatch that Kerry had later amended his speech to say that on the Christmas Eve in question he had been near Cambodia but not in Cambodia. And she cited a statement by one of Kerry's advisers, who said that Kerry "on one occasion crossed into Cambodia at the request of members of a special operations group." startribune.com Boston Herald writes a fair piece - Unfit' takes aim at Kerry’s account of Vietnam service news.bostonherald.com
