Kerry still won't release war journals
After telling America for the last six months that we should vote for him because of his amazing record in Vietnam, Kerry still won't tell us the details in his war journals. Again, what is he afraid of?
And now he has found himself a rather nifty excuse. He can't, because he granted exclusive access to Douglas Brinkley, his all-to-friendly biographer:
The Kerry campaign has refused to release Kerry's personal Vietnam archive, including his journals and letters, saying that the senator is contractually bound to grant Brinkley exclusive access to the material. But Brinkley said this week the papers are the property of the senator and in his full control.
Ann Althouse thinks all of this is just a little too cute. And I have to agree. Senator Kerry, just release the journal!
