Here is someone that has quite a plausible explanation that says Kerry was lying through his teeth about using his Swift Boat on clandestine missions. Check it out.

Interesting post. It's interesting to see all the old officers scrambling to cover their asses about all this though. Kerry says his incursion into Cambodia was unofficial, so there's no way to prove or disprove it, but they're starting to come out saying how under control and in command they were. Granted I was never in Vietnam, but from all the first hand accounts I've heard, much of Vietnam was neither under control nor in command. I can't see that there's any kind of "Welcome to Cambodia! Enjoy your stay" sign at the border, so to me it's plausible that a gunboat full of young Americans could certainly cruise into Cambodia.
If Kerry is full of shit about it, he's just one of two candidates who are full of shit who are running for president. I'll still take Kerry.

It would be like using a B-52 to do a supply drop; it just wasn't practical according to this SEAL guy.
That's the whole reason why this is being pushed - Kerry makes such a big deal out of four months of service in Vietnam - admirable to say the least - but says nothing of 20+ years of service in the Senate?
With Kerry touting his Vietnam record, he cannot expect everyone to simply not take a closer look. Honestly Scroff: what would people say if President Bush pushed his time in the Texas ANG? You know that every little facet would be examined six ways to Sunday....
|| Posted by Mad Mikey, August 18, 2004 06:38 AM ||I agree that Kerry is making more of four months in country than he should, to me it's somewhat disrespectful to the guys who were there for the full tour or more. There was also a comment to this story that mentioned a book that pointed out that Swift Boats were used for insertions... (yea I know... thats like my uncles sisters friends nephew...)
I also agree with the point about Kerry's record in the Senate should be looked at more closely. I think you'd find it not as bad as some Bush people make it out to be, which leads me to wonder why his record, except for a few issues that have been debunked, hasn't been made an issue, other than a vague "He flip flops". Bush can easily be shown to flip flop within the past three years. I also think that 20+ years experience of public service is more impressive than a couple terms as Governor of Texas, which was last or close to last in anything good and first or close to first in anything bad while Bush was there. I also think (don't I always) that Bush has screwed up any businiess deal he got his hands on, so why would anyone expect him to run the country any better.
I have no problem looking at their records for the last 20+ years.
