Excerpt:

Why would Thurlow's Bronze Star citation be wrong about "enemy bullets flying"? Former Navy Commander George Elliott, who signed Thurlow's citation, told Human Events he based the claim that there was enemy fire that day on an after-action report that Thurlow and two other officers on the scene believe was written by Kerry. I got the information from the after-action report," said Elliott.

Thurlow and his colleagues have good reason to believe Kerry authored this report because, other than Thurlow, there were only four Swift boat commanders on the scene that day in 1969. One was Kerry. One was Donald Droz, who is now deceased. And the two others were Richard Pees and Jack Chenoweth, who back Thurlow's claim that there was no hostile fire that day.

I say:

Your so-called rebuttal of Thurlow is based on Kerry the flip-flopper. Hardly a credible or unbiased witness, unless you have a strong will to believe. If you guys keep bringing this piece of bullshit up, I'm gonna make it a top level article, post it all the other places, and do the bringing up of old threads thing. You've been warned.

And the rest of your points are too weak to deserve a comment.
