Reply #44: The story of Kerry and Dodd and Brian Freeman [View All]

[karynnj]

was given substantial press. Although never said explicitly, one part of the story is that this young captain trusted Kerry and Dodd enough to seek them out to speak to them about his concern that they were being asked to do things they were untrained for. Do you think they were chosen randomly? He trusted Senators Kerry and Dodd enough to go out of his way to speak to them. This and other Kerry comments that vets and soldiers have sought him out and spoke to him show the real basic relationship Kerry has with the soldiers.

He will always have some Vietnam vets who hate him for telling the truth. That Webb, after Kerry helped him, still found it necessary to argue the Vietnam was a popular war in 1972, proves that even a very intelligent man can be blinded by not wanting to admit the truth on a major segment of his own life.
