I can't believe you would dare post this quote without a smiley face. Kerry's post-dated "diaries", subject to non-disclosure with his biographer/campaign spokesman/Boston Globe reporter (or something like that), and that's your source for a verified Cambodia claim?
Ty, I've always liked you, but this has to be the low point in your posting career. This as a source on Kerry's life is like 500 times more unreliable than a teenage blogger.

He wrote that he'd been in Cambodia decades ago, and you're dismissing it because it wasn't penned on the Mekong River on the other side of the border? There are a lot of war memoirs out there, and just about all of them weren't written contemporaneously with the events they relate. It doesn't mean they're all lying. Brinkley is no hack. If he's looked at the facts, I trust his judgment, without something more.
