"To be fair... there's no evidence of outright fraud in any of this. What we have, though, is a very odd circumstance. "

Yes....very strange indeed. I can't imagine that Kerry would be so stupid as to commit fraud of this nature. It would not only ruin his chance for the whitehouse, but he would have to resign from the senate in disgrace and face criminal charges. Then again... Bill Clinton survived his disgrace and criminal activity with the help of the mainstream media.

I disagree:

Kerry IS stupid enough, and vain enough, to believe that (especially with a Clinton-administration in the White House and running the Pentagon) that he COULD GET AWAY ith changing his records (with the year 2000 Form 215!) to "surgically enhance" his medals and his records of service 25 years before.

He just didn't foresee Freepers with enough intelligence and resources to be exposed.

...he would have to resign from the senate in disgrace and face criminal charges.

Nope, he's a Rat. A Massachussetts Rat, at that. He could walk down the street and assault every third person at random. The media wouldn't report it.

I take that back. Actual, four-legged rats can't help being what they are.
