More on Swift Boatgate
Hopefully this will be the last entry about Kerry's war record for a while....

The Washington Post today came out with a rather extensive article on the matter. It explores both sides of the issue, and I suppose everyone can find something in it to further support their own position. The bottom line is that while Kerry may not be able to prove beyond a doubt his version of what happened 35 years ago, neither can the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth prove that he's lying. There are also serious questions about the group's funding sources.

I can only conclude that Kerry would have been better off if he had simply transfered to the Alabama National Guard and then lost his payroll records.
