Proof Kerry is Telling the Truth
Major Embarrassment for the Right

It turns out John Kerry is telling the truth about spending Christmas in Cambodia. A British journalist who worked in Cambodia in the Sixties has just come forward with a recording of the following popular Cambodian folk song:


Grandma got run over by a swift boat
Walking home from our hooch Christmas Eve
You may say Cambodia has no swift boats
But me and Aunt Teresa, we believe

[chorus]

She’d been smoking too much Thai stick
And we begged her to keep low
But she felt like skinny dipping
And she staggered down the bank
into the flow

[chorus]

When we found her Christmas morning
At the scene of the attack
She had Botox in her forehead
And incriminating ketchup
down her back

[chorus]

It’s not Christmas without Grandma
The whole Khmer Rouge is dressed in black
And we just can’t help but wonder
Is Lieutenant Kerry
coming back?

[chorus]

I’ve warned all my friends and neighbors
Stay inside, protect your health
They should never give a medal
To a man who flips his lid
and shoots himself

:)

I like how that song both "saves" his credibility and nukes his 3 Purple hearts, kudos ;-)

A poorly written song is absolutely no credible proof that Kerry spent Christmas in Cambodia. I'd prefer to trust the US military officials, who say that no swift boats ever crossed into Cambodia, if it's all the same to you.

Is it an American tune?

I don't think I have ever heard it.

whoah, just felt a chill, this area seems to be devoid of any sense of humor, anyone else get that feeling?

Xichuan Dao, exactly ONE of the mistakes one can do is believe all authority has to say, for many countries and former colonies around the world received their independence by challenging authority.

We all know he is telling the truth cause he won THREE PURPLE HEARTS lol.

Except that that's different. I'm not believing ALL authority, merely the military, on one topic, on where one of their own boats was.
