How do you know Mr. McNicoll's attribution is wrong?


Because I went back to the primary sources and read them and the quote
was not there. This was a transcript of the testimony provided by an
Anti-Kerry group that had an entire article bashing Kerry for what he
had said, and said article did not mention any such quote either, and
the format and font match GPO documents from that time period
precisely. I posted links to both, should you care to examine them.

And then I did find the quote on a Meet The Press from a few days
before his Senate testimony. And Kerry agreeing that he had said the
quote on Meet the Press back in 1971. Again, I have presented my
evidence, posted links to both the original and a transcript of the
recent Meet the Press, which you have not addressed.

Would you prefer if I said "The Boston Globe's attribution is wrong"?
Because, from everything that I can tell, it is. Like Mr. Brooks, I
have read the transcript as provided by the GPO. The quote you
reference isn't there. He did say it on Meet the Press. This an
incorrect cite, and nothing more. Let's stop talking about this.


Fine with me. But I do find it odd that anyone that strives for accuracy,
as your and Brooks' research indicates you both do, would take offense at
someone else's desire for accuracy.
