Gardner says he wasn't present at any of the events that deal with Kerry's medals Not so, Gardner there was there for Kerry's first PH. He was also there when PCF 44 did NOT spend Christmas in Cambodia. He doesn't claim to have been on the PCF 94.O'Neill is a Republican hit man. He was handpicked by Colson to "get Kerry." He is now trying to hide these connections. There is no question he is either lying about his co-author now or was previously, as his various stories cannot all be true. He has consistently lied about his funding by Republican contributors and the connection to Bush campaign officers with the Swiftie organization. There is no question O'Neill was furious about Kerry's testimony (many were) and was used by Colson. That's hardly a secret. What lies has he told about Corsi? I haven't seen any. Corsi made a few flaky statements, and O'Neill dissaciated himself from them. That's all I've seen. O'Neill never denied being funded by Republicans, much less lied about it, why should he? Who thinks that he would get funding from Democrats for this? (In the year when Soros has just given $16 million to Dem 527s, the Dems are not in a great position to complain about fat cat funding) And what difference does any of this make to the truth of the specific accusations?How more specific can I be? You could find a direct quote, for starters, and cite the evidence that refutes it.That's the way another swift boat commander remembers it Well, I'm glad to see that Kerry found somebody who likes him. That makes, what, 13 or 14 swifvets pro-Kerry, 270 anti-Kerry? You'll notice that this guy does not claim to have served with Kerry at all.
