Joe: Since you did not answer my e-mail where I offered some basic info. that was woefully lacking from your last show I hope you will read this posting. Kerry`s first swift boat was #44 which departed Cam Ranh Bay on Dec. 6th, 1968 had the following crew members: James Wasser, Drew Whitlow, Stephen Gardner, William Zalodonis, Stephen Hatch. These are the guys you should be looking for, for any incident that occurred from Dec. 6th 1968 to Jan.29th, 1969
On Jan. 29th, 1969 Tedd Peck, commander of the #94 boat was seriously wounded on what was known as The Cua Lon River Mission and on that date Kerry was re-assigned to boat #94.The crew he inherited: Gene Thorson, David Alston, Del Sandusky, Michael Medeiros, and Tom Belodeau ( now deceased ) and later Fred Short. Those are the guys you should be looking for, for all incidents that occurred from Jan. 29th 1969, to March. 13th, 1969. |

I've missed the alston story. was he on the boat or hurt? I've seen his picture with Kerry so I am assuming the earlier reports of his jan 28th injury got mixed up somehow. |

Alston has claimed to be a member of the "band of liars..excuse me Brothers". Go to Captains Quarters Blog and way down the blog to see our articles on him. _________________ On Sale!

Also, Joe, if you are reading this, allow me to add that I’ve found your coverage of the SBVT to be the best I’ve personally seen so far.
That said, I do have one problem with virtually all the coverage I’ve seen.
It bothers me to see a certain media willingness to allow the integrality of the SBVT to be questioned simply because they were not on Kerry’s boat while, at the same time, virtually every Kerry spokesman I’ve seen (except Rassman) is not required to explain where they were when the discussed events took place.
This is really not fair.
I think it would be nice if all talk show hosts would simply ask each of their guests to tell the audience if they were present when these things happened or if they are being paid by either the Bush or Kerry campaign. This would take only a couple of seconds and it should go a long way towards helping the audience decide which of the guests is more credible.
Other than that, keep up the good work. You are a fair and honest person and your TV show reflects that. I wish there were more like you on the air. |

Let`s not forget about Joe`s special tonight. Also Jeraldo Rivera will be on the sbvt story on Fox tonight. I expect Rivera to lean toward Kerry. I don`t have what time they will be on tonight. It may differ from their week day schedules. I`ll let you know when I know. |

Why would he introduce a discussion of Rood's editorial with a graphic description of the BRONZE STAR incident!!?
I still don't think Joe is up to speed on this thing. Maybe MSNBC still doesn't have a copy of the book. |

Alson was NOT on 94 when Kerry took over. He was wounded the day before, when Peck (the OiC) was wounded, and both were off the boat. |

This is a good critique of what is going on with the Kerry Camp. _________________ The door to the room of success swings on the hinges of the opposition. |

Me too. I like Joe Scarborough but I agree, he isn't in the loop. He really doesn't know what is happening and hasn't heard the entire story. By the way, Joe, don't be "shocked" that Bob Dole would do the right thing. The right thing is to demand an investigation. Three superficial flesh wounds does not a hero make. Geez. _________________ Nomorelies Make a donation HERE |
