0:40 (est.) Senate Committee
Vietnam War Hearing 1971
Foreign Relations
John F. Kerry , D-MA

The 40 minutes allotted by C-SPAN to Kerry's testimony would suggest that we're gonna get the whole ball of wax this time.

[My2Cents]

Well, he probably has Howard Fineman on because the only other possible guest was Michelle Malkin.

[hole_n_one]

lol!

Thanks!!! I had turned away and would have missed it, if not for you.

Pat Buchanan doing GREAT work debunking Kerry's account of the Rassmun incident I wrote him a fan email the other day and he responded promptly. His questions are damning to Kerry!

No damage to the boats, no injuries, and Kerry had left the scene so he wouldn't know about "gunfire". GREAT point, and it has Chris Mathews stuttering! And he says, almost conceding the point, "I don't think this is the point". HA!

[mylife]

Whooa dude! Its like a 70's flashback man.

[Dutchgirl]

Whatever our differences... response to Kerrey's remarks-"WE HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE LIVES MISERABLE...(?)re: Brady bill...

[My2Cents]

I don't often say this, but KUDOS TO PAT!

[Mo1]

Got my tape ready to go :0)

[YaYa123]

Chris Mathews is a drowning man...drowning in his own spit!

[My2Cents]

And he says, almost conceding the point, "I don't think this is the point".

Yeah, the point is that Kerry came back and provided fodder for the beasts in North Vietnam to torture our guys.

[My2Cents]

FR is the only place on the Net where a *live thread* would be put up to discuss something that was taped 33 years ago. :-)

[EllaMinnow]

Ditto that! I can't believe I'm sitting here cheering Pat Buchanan.

GREAT point, and it has Chris Mathews stuttering! And he says, almost conceding the point, "I don't think this is the point". HA!

[Howlin]

Yes, Pat doing good, but he doesn't know how to respond to Chris about the Nixon tape. I"ve posted my own reply to that question 2 times already today...one more time won't hurt:

___________________________ "I'll tell you what I heard O'Neill say in explaining this, on Sean's tv show. (someone will correct me if I misstate)This happened a couple nights ago.

As caught on the Nixon tapes. O'Neill tells Nixon the Swiftboats go in Cambodia, and in the next sentence (which is left out), he further explains it's the border area waterways.

O'Neill further explained to Sean, this is an entirely different border area, no where near where Kerry says he entered Cambodia, because entering Cambodia where Kerry described, was impossible.

From what I heard, O'Neill is describing for Nixon, operations the unit conducted long after Kerry had left Viet Nam. I noticed this charge against O'Neill was a one news cycle attack by Kerry talking heads, and they moved on to other things. If it were true, I think they would have continued to hammer away."

AND AS SOMEONE SMARTER THAN ME SAID, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE WHAT O'NEILL DID LONG AFTER KERRY HAD LEFT VIET NAM? THAT'S THE TIME FRAME O'NEILL WAS DESCRIBING TO NIXON.

It is going to be hilarious to hear all the lefties blow their tops tonight. Might be better than the main event.
