Yep .... Mark Hyman (Sinclair Broadcasting) yet again puts that hot poker collectively in big media's eye & up the liberal commie marxist Kerry apologists' and sycophants' nether regions. Official Navy after action reports written by John Kerry support claims and statements made by Swift Boat Veterans For Truth.
snip ....
Eyewitnesses offer a far different account. They allege Kerry shot a wounded teenager retreating from battle.
Kerry has made public, hundreds of pages of official Navy documents to bolster his many claims. Conspicuous by its absence is the official after action report of what actually happened that day. The after action report written by John Kerry, himself.
In an exclusive, The Point has obtained this document from U.S. Navy archives (you can see it here). The pertinent section reads:
"PCF 94 beached in center of ambush in front of small path when Viet Cong sprung up from bunker 10 feet from unit. Man ran with weapon towards hootch. Forward M-60 machine gunner wounded man in leg. Officer-in-charge, LTjg Kerry, jumped ashore and gave pursuit while other units saturated area with fire and beached placing assault parties ashore. Kerry chased VC inland behind hootch and shot him while he fled -- capturing one B-40 rocket launcher with round in chamber."
So there you have it. The official record written by John Kerry supports what the critics have alleged rather than the John Wayne Kerry version the Massachusetts liberal has been telling.

So the "Swift Boat Vets" are liars-eh?

This is big. If the documents that Kerry is trying to withhold from public view start to leak out like this the it will be Check and mate.
It's fun to compare the differing accounts of the same incidents in Tour of Duty vs Navy docs vs his public statements. Don't hold your breath waiting for "the real john kerry to please stand up" -- there is no "real" john kerry.

I am reporting on it too. I hope these are not RATHER forged docs....
Instead of using "conspiracy speak" could you tell us in simple straight forward English what the difference in the stories is? No links please, just the facts.
