Great Article on the Sinclair "documentary"
"The 42-minute film, titled, "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal," is a one-sided view of Kerry's anti-war activities. It consists mostly of interviews with U.S. prisoners of war who survived imprisonment and torture in Hanoi, and emerged enraged at Kerry and others for suggesting they had suffered for an unjust cause.

No one opposed to the war or supportive of Kerry is interviewed in the film.

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."

1. Be interesting if some of the "liberal media" would:
play the tape of the Senate Hearing, uncut

Explain in detail the investigation done by Nixon's cohorts where they couldn't find anything to really nail JK with (no don't you think that anything Nixon found out would already have surfaced in the past 20 years he's been in the Senate?)

Feel free to add more
