Didn’t say it was a crime- it is despicable though
Thinking of beautiful things we know;
Dreaming of deeds that we mean to do,
All complete, in a minute or two --
Something noble and grand and good,
Won by merely wishing we could.
Rudyard Kipling
Fact checkers have shown that this statement is TRUE.
Joe Biden has been in politics for many decades. Politics, according to Carl von Clausewitz, is merely warfare by other means. Therefore, Joe Biden is a war veteran.
Furthermore, he is considered a hero by many. This means the statement on MSNBC is completely true.
(The Department of Justice also issues this guidence: Anyone who denies this, or makes statements to the contrary, is issuing disinformation, and should expect a subpeona and/or physical raid by the FBI)
Biden drove a big rig during the war.
At this point the Left believes, not without justification, that they can spew any lie no matter how ridiculous and easily debunked and at least 40% of the country would automatically and unquestioningly believe it.
Yeah, we’re all having a little fun with it.
No. It’s a ham handed media analogy. A stupid take on the story of Cinncinntus. The talking head couldn’t remember or even knew the name so war hero was substituted. It’s not about ear it’s about teturning to the fray after you’ve thought you could hand the job to others.
It’s funny how Trump was called a draft dodger, but Biden never gets mentioned in that way.
By the way, why does military service avoidance to the media only mean the draft?
What is the difference between Obama not wanting to serve and Biden not wanting to serve, what does the draft existing have to do with whether someone is patriotic or not?
Either someone avoided serving our country, or not, that doesn’t only count during the Vietnam war or a draft era.
“”He was, he was the retired war hero out in the mountain, chopping wood. Charlottesville brought him back into the fight that he never thought he’d have to fight again.”
Don’t care if this was meant metaphorically, or a deliberate act of deception. Either way it reinforces what PRESIDENT Trump called fake news.
Painting a new narrative based completely on insulting lies.
Also - the lies about Brandon are just the left polishing a turd. But it’s past time to stop the Charlottesville lie. Insulting PRESIDENT Trump is insulting those who support him.
Perfecto.
biden has had failed attempts at running for preesident, too!!
just another Garish Old Dirty Dick Amender Measly Nutso draft dodger poisoning from on high.
It fits
No, we look weak and inattentive if we don't counterpunch back.
The Republican blind spot is how we always talk ourselves out of engaging in-kind with the Democrats. If we punch back, declaring that this is an idiotic comment not based in facts, it puts the LAAP-dog media on the defensive to explain themselves. That exposes the issue to their viewers and makes THEM go "crap, that was an own-goal."
If we stay silent, then the media will just ratchet up the dialog even more the next time because there is no resistance.

Absolutely punch back. But ridicule him saying “That’s the most outlandish metaphor I’ve ever heard. How can you compare him to a pro-American war hero and a strong lumberjack with workingman values? That is preposterous. He is the antithesis of what you called him. He is anti-American through-and-through. And Charlottesville was a complete anti-Trump fabrication.”
Too many are believing he called him a true war hero and are “fact checking” that statement. That is foolish.
That's the way that I take it. An eye-rolling statement enough in itself, but not what people here are claiming it to be.
But he did say it and his side famously misrepresents what Trump and others says all the time. I guess what’s good for the goose?
It might be for fun to do so for entertainment value, but in a serious conversation I wouldn't.
Interesting take, and I think you might be right. But as you say, he did say it, and I’m sure many viewers believed it.
That's the real danger in this guys remark. Not that he was actually claiming that Biden was a war hero, but that his followers might take it as literally as some people on this thread.

Where does the metaphor come from? I guess there are echoes of Washington or Lincoln or Cincinnatus, but it's mostly just ... wait for it ...
Back with my wife in Tennessee
When one day she called to me
Said "Virgil, quick, come see,
There goes the Robert E. Lee!"
Now, I don't mind chopping wood
And I don't care if the money's no good
True, it's the steam boat Robert E. Lee and it's not Robert E. Lee who's chopping wood, but that may be where it came from.

That’s why he’s corn popular.
