Kerry Half Way Across Country

5 miles, 50 miles....what does it matter?
Kerry now claims he was not in Cambodia, but near it on Christmas. Near being 50 miles away. Pretty close if you're in Texas, but not in Vienam. Sa Dec, where Kerry was stationed, is LITERALLY halfway across the country!! (Source)
Captain Ed has the complete story.
QuandO also spanking the Kerry campaign.
UPDATE: The Instapundit ripped off my idea...but has a better map.

The story is seared, seared into my memory.

In my memory, this story is seared, then roasted and served in a red wine sauce and garnished with a sprig of rosemary.

That map reads like a seating chart for an Alexandria (VA) public school.

I must confirm, based on my own personal experiences day to day in that hostile environment, with incidents too numerous to count and with recollections as fresh as if they were yesterday -- in fact, it WAS yesterday -- that 50 miles within Texas is "close".
Hauled the kids up from Lancaster to Flower Mound for a playdate to swim with some friends of theirs. Didn't think a moment about the dangers, the expense, the weather. I had a mission, and I accomplished it.

Heck, anywhere in the US east of the Mississippi, 50 miles is nothing!

A trip around the DC beltway is 66 miles. Rockville seems halfway across the world from Alexandria.
