But They Did Not Serve With Him
Drudge is stating that Kerry spoke with the Swift Vets the other day:

Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry personally phoned anti-Kerry swift boat vets, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Kerry reached out to Robert "Friar Tuck" Brant Cdr., USN (RET) Sunday night, just hours after former Sen. Bob Dole publicly challenged Kerry to apologize to veterans.

Brant was skipper of the #96 and # 36 boat and spent time with Kerry in An Thoi. Kerry and Brant slept in the same quarters, and Brant used to put Kerry back to bed at night when Kerry was sleepwalking.

Brant received a call from Kerry at his home in Virginia while he was watching the Olympics on TV.

The call lasted 10 minutes, sources tell DRUDGE.

KERRY: "Why are all these swift boat guys opposed to me?"

BRANT: "You should know what you said when you came back, the impact it had on the young sailors and how it was disrespectful of our guys that were killed over there."

Why on earth would he call the skipper of another boat? I mean, they did not serve together because they were not on the same boat?

Right, Atrios? Oliver? Kevin? Matt? Jesse? That was the story, right? These swifties were not on the SAME boat as him, so they know nothing about him, right?

Like- they never bunked with him or anything? Right?
