CNN NEWSNIGHT WITH AARON BROWN:
The co-author of the book “Unfit for Command,” former swift boat commander John O’Neill said Kerry made up a story about being in Cambodia beyond the legal borders of the Vietnam War in 1968.
O’Neill said no one could cross the border by river and he claimed in an audio tape that his publicist played to CNN that he, himself, had never been to Cambodia either. But in 1971, O’Neill said precisely the opposite to then President Richard Nixon.
O’NEILL: I was in Cambodia, sir. I worked along the border on the water.
NIXON: In a swift boat?
O’NEILL: Yes, sir.
Seems like these guys have a small credibility problem . . . is there anyone in the swifty group who hasn’t been caught in a lie? Was he lying then (to his lord and master? I doubt it) or is he lying now?
