3. Sorry!!
Carville couldn't get an answer about Corsi, and turned in frustration to the audience and said, "I have no use for this man."

Now Novak is acting high-minded and shaming Carville. :puke:

Lanny Davis is on the other side of this.

7. Carville shouted down the man who co-wrote Unfit to Command
asking him what he thought about the other authors claims about Hillary being a lesbian etc etc.

Novack called carville disgraceful and shut up the other guy.

It's too ridiculous to give too many details sorry :(

10. More >
When James was asking Oneil about Corsi's racial slurs, he went ballistic and started pounding the book and yelling. oneil wouldn't address the Corsi issue. I've never seen James so mad !

11. O'Neill claims somebody on his team was in the whaler when Kerry
supposedly shot himself for a purple heart (the first one) -- Davis says that is false.

17. Thanks for letting us office rats know what is going on.
There are 4 Crossfire threads out there and nobody is bothering to summarize what is going on.

Reading "James kicked ass" without getting more information is frustrating.

Thanks, Sparkly

23. Dare I ask what a whaler is doing upriver?
I would think a whaler would have too deep a hull, unless I'm misunderstanding the term.

28. Whale boat?
Edited on Thu Aug-12-04 04:30 PM by oneighty
26 feet long double ender draws about two feet of water, used to be wood but changed to Fiberglas. Very very slow. Indeed what would a whale boat be doing up the river?

180...once owned a whale boat (Navy surplus)


Another thought; Boston Whaler?

13. Any Honest Person Would Attribute The Confusion To The Fog Of War....
The Swift Boats Veterans for Bush turned differing recollections of a battle into a petty , pernicious, partisan attack....

14. It's all about Kerry's anti-war efforts after he came back from Nam
That's their real gripe. This stuff about unearned medals didn't come up in 1971 for some reason. O'Neill never mentioned in then.

19. They Said Papa Bush Prematurely Ditched His Plane In WW2
dooming his two copilots......


I think that attack is scurrilous too...


Again, who knows what happens in the fog of war....

31. But he was a Hero!
He got a lot of mileage out of an act of confusion, at best. Cowardice, at worst.

32. I've read accounts from men who were in the plane directly
behind Poppy when he bailed. They said there was no threat to Poppy's plane, no reason for him to except being scared - pilots have a grave responsibility to their crew - if they bail, all is lost. And Poppy's crew was sol and doomed after he ejected to saved himself.

21. Those are not "differring recollections". They are pure LIES.
Check up on the background of these guys and the bigots who funded them.

22. I Know Those Guys Are Jerks....
Their opinions of Kerry colored their view of the events though in many cases it was a view from afar....

15. I want to know how many Deomcrats contributed to the book ?
How many African Americans too ?

If this could be brought out, It would help.

Rassmann is a REPUB and supports Kerry's version

24. No TV. Who else is on the Dem side?

I saw one of Kerry's former crewmate's debating O'Neil on CNN one morning right after this campaign began. Watching the expression on the face of Kerry's man in his faded jacket with frayed, cutoff sleeves as the soft, pudgy looking O'Neil called him a liar made me terribly disappointed they were not in the same room.

25. Just Lanny Davis
Novak was asking O'Neill questions instead of asking them to Davis!! The man barely got a word in edgewise and O'Neill and Novak played the Politeness Police if he interrupted.

27. Too bad.

Why do you suppose they never put O'Neil on the same stage with one of Kerry's former crewmates?

26. Carville knows all of Kerry's boatmates
Carville, who is a veteran himself, organized the Veteran's for Kerry rally at the DNC, and emceed the event that featured all of the Kerry's swiftboat crew and a bunch of other Vietnam vets who have endorsed him. The last speaker was Max Cleland, who got a 5 minute standing O. Carville was raging about the way Cleland was treated, calling his GOP opponent "Saxby Shameless". I'm not surprised he is fired up about the swiftboat liars.
