Still calling us fabricators but won't chase down the story of Kerry's 180.
NY Times

Politicians who dive into this game by putting on their own reality shows think they are being very clever. But like Mr. Cruise, they're being busted by a backlash. John Kerry was the first to feel it: his stagy military pageant, complete with salute, at the Democratic National Convention came off as so phony that the greater (but more subtle) fictions of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth struck many as relatively real by comparison.

Terry...given the source, this is almost astonishing. SVPT has progressed to now being categorized as purveyors of a "subtle fiction" as opposed to being outright contemptible liars (not that the NYT has the journalistic basis for making EITHER assertion).
I'll chalk this up to ONE thing...and I read ANYTHING emanating from left wing media inre Kerry through the dominant filter of their bias for Hillary Clinton. If/when a Kerry/Clinton choice should come to fruition, they will send Kerry back "downriver" in a NY minute.
on edit: I noted this is a Frank Rich piece...not an editorial, but close enough for me |
