Subject: Rood's story

Rood supports the Swiftees contention that Kerry did not attack a numerically superior enemy force while under intense fire.

Are you going to persist in reporting on the irrelevant details surrounding the single VC dispatched by Kerry? Or will you discuss the actual point of contention?

Well? Ar you "smoke and mirrors" people, or "truth" people?

RE: Fox & Friends - they're saying Rood's story is the Rassman incident. Not so. Problem with these talky-talk people is that 1) they haven't read the book, 2) they don't listen when others are talking, and 3) they have no idea what's going on beyond their teeny little set in the studio. It would be refreshing to hear intelligent questions being asked, with follow-ups, instead of mouthing words a producer wrote down for them.

Few, if any on-air personalities have gotten to the heart of the Swiftees story. Brit Hume, Pat Buchanan, Fred Barnes and some others (notice that they are "older"), have a true grasp of what happened then and what's happening now. Many of these folks weren't even around during the Vietnam war, and they're trying to talk about something about which they will never know.

I continue to disagree with your approach on the Rood story. The media should report his version about the VC being adult and clothed in traditional garb, and then point out it is Kerry's version that gave the "teenager in a loincloth" description.

Yes, they should also report the other aspect but won't.

I accurately predicted yesterday that the VC description was the main point of contention they would harp on, so it is up to us not to sweep it aside but to keep saying, the "teenager" is what KERRY said so Rood is not disputing the Swift Vets but Kerry himself.

I don't see the Rood story gained much traction after all, btw, so I guess soon he'll drop completely off the radar. LOL
