(Fox News) Carl Cameron Confronts Kerry Campaign on Cambodia

Fox News ^ | 9 Aug 2004 | Carl Cameron

[mcg1969]

Hugh Hewitt just finished playing an entire story from Fox News wherein Carl Cameron confronted the Kerry campaign regarding his Cambodia claims.

Intially, they denied that Kerry had ever said he was in Cambodia. So Carl presented them with the Senate Record and the Boston Globe article where he most unambiguously did so. They said they would have to get back to him on this one, but sticks to their story that he was near Cambodia, but not actually in Cambodia.

THIS STORY HAS LEGS!

'BOTH THE OLD KRANISH COVER AND THE NEW KERRY/EDWARDS COVER HAVE THE EXACT SAME ISBN NUMBER ACCORDING TO THE PUBLISHER, AMAZON, AND BARNES AND NOBLE. If these sites are accurate, the books are connected as revisions!

The Library of Congress and Copyright office as well as the ISBN repository (Bowker and Co) will all go crazy over this.

An ISBN number and the relevant Library of Congress book identification number is by UNIQUE TITLE.

These folks check spelling and punctuation in the title as well as sub-title.

An ISBN number CANNOT be issued for the same material with different titles.

The Kerry supporters keep trying to bump of his service time.

Last week Alan Colmes was livid at a guest and he kept ranting that Kerry volunteered for 2 tours and was in VN a total of 9 months, not 4 months.

They are desperate to try to up his actual time.

I was just over on Instapundit.....it seems the Kerry camp is going to claim ... what he really meant he was "nearby" Cambodia.

[kellynla]

Bottom line: regarding this latest BS from Kerry,
Kerry wasn't in Cambodia(which is what we're trying to prove from his latest lies) and Nixon wasn't POTUS in 1968 as Kerry was trying to foot the blame for the war and his presence there on!

[BlessedBeGod]

You forgot to use the word "crazy." ;-)

[Cboldt]

Sure, that'll work (NOT). Read what JKerry said, and insert the word "near" as needed. It doesn't fly. Not at all.

"Mr. President, I remember Christmas of 1968 sitting on a gunboat in Cambodia. I remember what it was like to be shot at by Vietnamese and Khmer Rouge and Cambodians, and have the President of the United States telling the American people that I was not there."

You weren't there, JF'nK.

[TomGuy]

I was just over on Instapundit.....it seems the Kerry camp is going to claim ... what he really meant he was "nearby" Cambodia.

Cameron said they has tried that, but he showed them a direct quote from Kerry stating he was INside Cambodia. They told Carl they'd have to check and come back with another story. lol.

[TomGuy]

Yes. This one story has 3 or 4 significant lies.

If this one story has that many lies, wonder how many lies Kerry's other stories have?

Hugh Hewitt just read your reply on his yack show.

Hewitt: Travis, you nailed it!

Where are all the bozos who claimed the other day that Carl Cameron is some kind of pro-Democrat shill?

I'l raise my hand here. I am no bozo by a long shot and I have not called Cameron a dem shill.

I have correctly pointed out weaknesses in his reporting and always applaud when he gets it right. He got this right today. Last week he was flat out wrong in his approach to this same story.

[Cboldt]

Cameron said they has tried that, but he showed them a direct quote from Kerry stating he was INside Cambodia.

It's not as though he's in trouble for being "in" or "near," after all, he said he was "in" and didn't get in trouble for that. The point is, he lied. It's his character at issue, not whether or not he should be punished for being in Cambodia.

[Temple Owl]

He ought to open up his service records. LOL

[Tribune7]

Great. Bump

[Howlin]

what he really meant he was "nearby" Cambodia.

You mean because he was in Vietnam?

Facts will prove he was somewhere else.

Another nuance by Nuancyboy.

[HIDEK6]

You know, I think the other shoe has yet to drop on this.

I expect one of his paid-off band of brothers to wilt under the heat and confess as to what the inducements were for him to continue to support Kerry.

[Mo1]

And the thing that infuriated them most? After he got his film/photographs, he left. He did not stay for the memorial service for those who died.

THAT is gonna put the nail in Kerry's coffin

[Jorge]

I notice that some days he has trouble keeping s straight face as he reports so maybe he is getting some yucks out of it.

Yes, Carl Cameron always has this little smile while reporting....like he's amused by these things.

"I was trying to build an archive of Kerry mistruths lies"

Please keep trying to do it.

Few are listening during the summer, vacatations, etc. But something like that could be invaluable during the heat of battle down the line.

Ping me if you do it.

BTW, I came in first last week in the racing league. Dumb luck.
