In response to the Kerry "Truth Squad" report, RNC Communications Director Jim Dyke said he doubted the Kerry forces would "release Senator Kerry's complete attendance record of Senate Intelligence Committee hearings." Earlier, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) called on Kerry and his vice presidential running mate, Sen. John Edwards (D-N.C.), "to publicly release their attendance records at the private, or classified hearing on the Intelligence Committee so the American people can really know the truth. "Where does the failure of oversight come from? Is it because they didn't bother to show up?" Cornyn asked. "I think the American people deserve to know and they deserve to know the truth now." Edwards, currently serves on the Intelligence Committee. There have been eight public hearings since he joined the panel and he has attended four, according to the Republican National Committee. |
