it talks about how one sided the documentary is and that the alligations against Kerry are exagerated at best, and quite probably false.

9. Yes, as I've posted before... |
|
it's easy to criticize your own, but the real courage comes in calling to accountability those in power.

6. I have no problem with this story. |

No historians are questioned about the documentary's premise that Kerry, then a little-known activist, single-handedly extended the fighting in Vietnam by two years and delayed the return of American prisoners by telling Congress in 1971 that U.S. forces had committed human rights violations.
Dr. Ernest Bolt, a history professor at the University of Richmond, said it was unlikely that Kerry's testimony directly affected how long the POWs were held, or how long the war lasted. He said Kerry's importance in the anti-war movement has been exaggerated since he began running for president.

7. I guess it was George W. Bush who worked with John McCain to find out... |
|
...what happened to the POWs and MIAs. Not John Kerry at all. No, never.
