Ted Rall is at it again

Unhinged cartoonist Ted Rall is throwing another troop-bashing tantrum. Normally, I would not feed this troll. But I agree with Noel Sheppard that this has to be the worst of the worst. Click for larger image–and make sure you do it on an empty stomach:

Rall is beyond contempt. He has accused our troops of being murderers for Halliburton, mocked soldiers as sexual deviants, and derided the late Pat Tillman as an “idiot” and “sap”. Now, all in one cartoon, he shows his naked contempt for the very traits of the American soldier that helped give birth to this country and secured it for 231 years: willingness to sacrifice, faith, courage, respect for the commander-in-chief, and determination to complete their mission.

Before you dismiss this anti-military hatred as marginal, I remind you that Ted Rall is not the far Left fringe:

In 1996, he was one of three Finalists for the Pulitzer Prize. He was one of the New York Times’ most reprinted cartoonists in 1997, 1999 and 2001. He also did color strips for both Time Magazine and Fortune Magazine from 1998 to 2001. He was awarded the 1998 Deadline Club Award by the Society of Professional Journalists for his cartoons. Rall received first place in both the 1995 and 2000 Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Awards for Cartoons. The award, founded in 1968, recognizes distinguished work on behalf of disadvantaged Americans. Does anyone on his side of the ideological aisle have the decency to question his patriotism?

My contempt for this disgusting, liberal POS transcends words

Ted Rall. What more is there to say?

[BenLurkin]

By law His company cannot fire him for being in the NG -- just MORE liberal lies to help our enemy.

Since when has reality ever had anything to with anything this piece of rotten cheese has ever done?

NOTE: Sorry for the formatting error. Not sure how to fix it. I previewed it before posting and I can't figure it out...... i posted this yesterday and it got pulled with the following reason: This thread has been pulled. Pulled on 07/14/2007 11:51:55 AM PDT by Admin Moderator, reason: Rall not wanted at FR. Okay I was very disappointed to say the very least. I felt as if though FR was accusing me of supporting this filth. Well, guess what? I'm sure Rall is not wanted over at Michelle Malkin's website, too, but it needs to be out there so we are aware of this scumbag. I felt censored although I did receive some insightful replies where someone mentioned the whole publicity thing. Now I try to take a deep breath before posting bulletins like that one. I did some research on this guy and his own website states he would report any abusive emails to IPs. What a coward piece of $#!+. The last thing I want to do is get people amped to email this guy and have them pay for it in the end so I decided to let this one ride. Besides, he doesn't deserve the publicity.

Nah, your OK

but your husbands art work is a little dark to say the least.
He’s good, but I sure lost my good humor after seeing the artwork...

[BamaAndy]

Just five minutes of discusson with him is all I want.

For someone who is always saying that the military is full of minorities because of poverty, why didnt he draw a black soldier? Hmmmmmmmmm, very interesting.
Burn in hell Ted Rall!!!
