According to matt Drudge, , Kerry’s story on Christmas in Cambodia is now changing:
TOUR OF DUTY author and John Kerry historian Doug Brinkley is rushing a piece for the NEW YORKER: to set-the-record-straight on Kerry’s Christmas in Cambodia tale, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Kerry has turned to author Brinkley for a “modification” after it was exposed that Kerry was not in Cambodia during Christmas of 1968, as he once claimed from the Senate floor.
The Brinkley piece for the NEW YORKER will now say that Kerry was not in Cambodia during Christmas, but rather in January, publishing sources tell DRUDGE.
I wish this were a joke, but it seems consistent with Kerry to change with the wind. So the story he has been telling for decades is all of a sudden incorrect? How can the Kerry campaign spin this in a positive way? If the info in the book was incorrect, why has Kerry been telling this story for decades, instead of correcting it? It is in the Congressional Record, of course. This would show what a weasel he really is, and how unprincipled.
Kerry cannot possibly reconcile his comments for over 30 years, made BEFORE the release of Tour of Duty, by blaming them on Brinkley. Either Kerry lied first (most probable), or Brinkley was mistaken, at which point Kerry should have corrected Brinkley, or at least ket his yap shut.
Don’t know about y’all, but, if someone misquotes me, I let them know. And, at the worst, if someone writes something about me that I do not find harmful, but is incorrect, I would keep my mouth shut. More often, I would correct it.
