The May 8, 2000 article from U.S. News & World report reproduced below begins by stating that John Kerry conducted clandestine forays into Cambodia during the Vietnam War to deliver weapons to anticommunist forces. Because that statement isn't a direct quote of Kerry, I contacted the reporter, Kevin Whitelaw, this afternoon. Whitelaw still works at U.S. News & World report where he covers foreign affairs and intelligence matters.
Hugh: "Did John Kerry tell you that he ran guns into Cambodia?"
Kevin Whitelaw: "That's exactly what he told me."
Mr. Whitelaw declined my invitation to appear on my radio program, explaining that he doesn't report on or comment on the presidential campaign.
Can we now agree that John Kerry has engaged in wild claims about his service? Since he told that tale to Mr. Whitelaw, who else has he told it to?

So...now he was running guns into Cambodia. Somebody should check any leave he took while in the Nam.
It's probably just another of his queered memories.

The evidence mounts daily that John Kerry is either the biggest liar to ever run for President, or the most delusional person to seek that office. Either way, he would be a disaster in the Oval Office.

Kerry must get Marlon Brando's fictional portrayal of "Apocalypse Now" confused with his own reality. He's not altogether there.

He kind of blended "Apocalypse Now" in with a little "Catch 22", mixed in a liberal dose of Sergio Leone's "A Fistful of Dynamite" and a big wallop of "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty."
Unfortunately he was forced by genetics to add a little "Mr. Ed" in casting.

....I'm starting to fear the Dems WILL pull the plug on him. But but but the pollsters Zogby, Rasmussen, PEW, CBS, Newsweak have Kerry in the lead.

I think the guy has been living in a fantasy world for a long, long time.
