Where was Waldo?

John Kerry before the U.S. Senate March 27, 1986.

Mr. President. I remember Christmas of 1968 sitting on a gunboat in Cambodia. I remember what it was like to be shot at by Vietnamese and Khmer Rouge and Cambodians, and have the President of the United States telling the American people that I was not there; the troops were not in Cambodia.

I have that memory which is seared-seared-in me, that says to me, before we send another generation into harm’s way we have responsibility in the U.S. Senate to go the last step, to make the best effort possible in order to avoid that kind of conflict.

Except Kerry's statement is false. He was NOT in Cambodia.
