The entire AWOL charade is idiotic. A fabricated scandal based on motor mouth interpretations of 35 year old documents. No person with knowledge provides anything other than ambiguous recollections.

UNFIT for COMMAND, 60 Vets provide their recollection and often use Kerry's own log entries to show the inconsistencies of his story. Several Vets provide specific contradiction of what kerry claimed..

Clearly no rational person still hold kerry's documented on 55 ocassions claim of being in Cambodia on Christmas 1968 is not false, a lie, a black and with flat out false statement. Consider Kerry maintained a contemporaneous log of his time in Vietnam. That is the mega condemning fact of pure kerry dishonesty. Consider Kerry created video tapes to document his time in Vietnam. Consider not one other human being confirms Kerry was ever in Cambodia at all.

When I think about the above facts, I wonder what kind of mental and moral defect is required to still attempt to defend kerry is telling the truth.

The implication of catching kerry in the whopper lie of Christmas in Cambodia is to make one question if kerry was ever capable of telling the truth. It's no longer about has kerry lied.

"Its not "AWOL" when you have permission....."

He had permission to not report to his Guard posting in Alabama in the summer and fall of 1972?

Then, why doesn't he produce it?

If he had permission, the whole issue would go away....
