Ed:

You are now, officially, a riot:

<<Human beings are very, very good at finding reasons to believe what they want and disbeleive what they don't want.>>

Could anything more aptly describe the short novel you have written and rewritten on this poor little thread during the last few weeks?

ROFL,

Kb

>>> Dabum, this is not characteristic of you. You are one of the most pragmatic thinkers on the net. Do you really believe that if Kerry released his full military records, there wouldn't be some "unresolved issues?" <<<

If he has nothing to be ashamed of in his records, he should release them. Kerry shouldn't be worried about pleasing everyone. He should be concerned about showing most people that what he is saying is true.

Unresolved issues? Yeah with some but, he would gain back the respect for those who were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt before this began.

In what appears to still be a close election, Kerry doesn't need for all of America to believe him, just the majority. You know this Ed. Stop making excuses for him. If the Swift Vets are wrong, then open the records. I know I would if it were me.

Instead of full disclosure, he's trying to get the media to cease and desist. This doesn't look good to the jury, a jury that merely needs a majority rule for him to win his case. He doesn't need a unanimous decision.

He's withholding evidence. Why?
