They had their say. It is all from memory (no proof), their accounts are contradictory, they rely on hearsay, they have a clear nefarious motive and the official record supports Kerry. I couldn't imagine impugning another man's reputation without tangible evidence. I respect their service, but the actions of this group are beneath my contempt.

Just because they have fought for the country is not a reason that we need to hear them. It is our right to hear those who speak facts and not mere hearsays. Mr. Thurlow was honored with a Bronze Star for the same incident that Kerry received his Purple Heart. Why does he say that he deserves that award but Kerry does not when it is from the same incident? I did not hear him answer that question last night on MSNBCs HARDBALL. He also admitted on the show that he heard about Kerry third hand. When asked if Mr. Bush should take his story about Kerry out on the campaign trail, he did not have a straight answer. In the face of persistent questioning on that he started to babble and could not come up with a straight YES or NO answer. Did we not listen to them enough on TV yesterday? This is mainstream media, unfiltered live show that we saw him on. We see what we see on TV and make our individual decisions. They failed miserably.
