Use of the Passive Voice Breaks Out
Kausfiles catches a Kerry-supporting vet "backing up" his claim of hostile fire only by resorting to the passive voice:
Shooting broke out.
Well, no one disputes that "shooting broke out;" the debate is whether there were any enemies in the area doing any shooting. We all know that Kerry & Co poured fire into the jungle.
Kausfiles goes on to find this same witness being a little more clear in the Boston Globe's book on Kerry:
I can't say for sure that we got return fire or how [Kerry] got nicked.
Un. Frickin'. Believable.
But the media, of course, trumpets this man's account as settling the issue and unambiguously supporting Kerry.
