He never recanted the content of his testimony, just the tone he used. I belive he said that the testimony came from an angry young man and may have included that his some of his comments were 'over the top'.

Whatever he said it is not true that he recanted his testimony, remember, the bulk of his testimony related to actions of other soldiers, many of them highly decorated and honorably discharged, as told to him by the participants...a fact that the new SBVFT add convienently edits out of their new add.

I may have some of the wording he used wrong, but he still stands by his original testimony because it was true. Not all committed these acts but, speaking from personal experience, I KNOW that these things happened. Ask any groundpounder that served in Nam and I'll bet that 70% of those who saw combat had seen some of our soldiers displaying ears as trophys. Razing villages and destroying food supplys of suspected enemy sympathizers was common and was often directed from command not in the field. Torture of prisioners was usualy carried out by CIA types but in some cases where info was immediaty needed some in the field took it upon themselves to extract it by whatever means they had.

This is what war does, sometimes the desensitation that helps a soldier do his job wears off. The reality of the human cost of war can be an overpowering force and, IMO, John Kerry is of the type that takes action when he sees something wrong

War is hell... so lets just quit.

A noble thing to do thrawn.  Good luck in the next life.

crying toast boy says that kerrie never recanted the fact that he told people he was a war criminal?  Ok..  So I believe him.. he commited war atrocities.

As for who is presidental... it becomes clear... move on and moores 911 are lying smear tactics of the highest order... mooore is the guest of honor at the democratic convention... kerrie claims he lives moores movie "every day"  ...    one commercial that has swift boat guys trashing the record of a fonda pandering 4 month hero who got three puirple hearts without even getting a scar...and the sissies come friggin unglued!  

The liberals are allways their own worst enemy... all the estrogen forces em to be petulant and being spoiled and thinking they are the smart and the elite makes em vulnerable to their own tactics.
