RE: Kerry not speaking directly to the SBV's

The analogy that comes to mind is a trial where the defendant or defendant's lawyer must make the decision to personally testify or not. Generally, if the defendant is actually guilty, the decision is to not testify.

Oh, but then you're always told that it is the prosecutions business to prove guilt and that, by not testifying, it should in no way be considered a sign of the perps guilt.

Yeah, right.
