Let me see if I've got this right.

From various threads

1) almost half of those listed and introduced at the Dem convention as Kerry's crewman did not serve on his boat

if this hypocracy is true how come it is not being recited every time the "not on his boat line" is spewed out against the swift vets?



2) two of the group had awards and decorations jobs
Rassman while in Vietnam and Sanders later on and much higher up the chain of command.

is this true? if it is, would not having allies in such places have made "gaming the system" much easier for Kerry?

Seems pretty clear to me.

I guess what is not clear to me is why every time I hear "they're lying because they didn't serve ON HIS BOAT", I don't also hear, "You mean like the guys on stage at the DNC that Kerry called his crewman?"

or

Why there seems to be no response to "the official records" when two of his band appear to have been in positions to help him write it and later edit it.

or

do I have it wrong?

Definite info I can give you as to your questions.

Rasmussen was not Navy. He was Special Forces, Army and was just hitching a ride.

As to the others......there are questions.....but I guarantee they didn't serve the entir time with him.
