Bill Cowan is saying that the Swift boats did not go out alone and that someone on another boat would be more likely to see what's happening than someone on the boat.

He's also saying that it's highly unlikely that a boat the size of a Swift boat would be in Cambodia. Couldn't stand the international furor if the boat got caught.

In a very short time, he got across several very important points.

We need more of that.

That kind of rebuttal shuts down the "not in the same boat" garbage.

Bill pretty much hosed the Kerry spinners. Great program. As a matter of fact, Fox is really doing a good job putting both sides out. Typical of this fine "fair and balanced" network, as apposed to the other leftist networks.

Not only that, but Cowan has been on Fox as an expert for a long time. He has no obvious connections to Swiftvets.

FINALLY, Brit is coming through for me! He was my absolute favorite until he appeared to be buying into the Kerry story.

Today's show took apart a LOT of the spin - Cowan was particularly effective because he operated with Swifts and PBR's for a couple of tours over there.

FINALLY!

Hugh Hewitt is playing the Fox report with Bill Cowan on his radio show right now. He has Steve Gardner coming up in two minutes.

I would love to hear Col. David Hunt's (retired) take on all of this. I really have a lot of respect for this man. Smile

If I'm not mistaken, COL Hunt was one of the first people to condemn the Swifts' ad. Sad

Wow, if Hunt did that, I would be very dissappointed in him. Maybe he isn't all he appears to be? I know why McCain said what he said, after the number Kerry and him did on the POW/MIA deal.
