The Kerry Divorce Records are sealed. Separately, Kerry told an interviewer he has “no intention” of releasing his divorce records, calling it “ancient history.” “I have no intention of doing that at all. There’s no reason whatsoever.

And still no correction to the assertion that the files were sealed from the time the divorce was finalized. Jeff Berkowitz doesn’t appear to understand the issue here.

Still no correction on Jill Stanek’s article in which she essentially calls Rod McCulloch a liar. The article insists the file was never open even though just about every news organization has reported that it was open for a little over a year.

I’m not sure I get the Bush Commercial This reminds me of a critical story NBC did on Ronald Reagan. They showed pictures of him in all these different places and then compared his record to his rhetoric. It was quite damning. They then asked Deaver or someone to respond and the person loved it–great […]
