well your first link is a dud. returned this "Your
search - 3Dkerry metrosexual Fox= - did not match any
documents."
also look at this guys
http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/index-old.php
this is from the bloger quoted on your site, kat
saying that the said story was revealed to be a hoax.
appears that the good ole guardian is quoating a
source that has retracted on oct 4th what was wrote on
oct 2. his "archive" of fox page had quite a few links
that went nowhere. also i'll note that the only media
discrepices go only in favor of kerry. sorry does not
pass the smell test.
