Johnson wasn't calling Biden a literal ‘war hero,’ he was using a metaphor.

He was against the US military since he started in the 70s.
To: bigbob
I think they meant Blumenthaul is a war hero.
To: ProtectOurFreedom
You do both.
After the LAAP-dog media constantly accused President Trump of using excessive hyperbole all the time, I can just see Trump at his next rally saying:
And the fake news outlets just called Joe Biden a "war hero," can you believe that? Sleepy Joe a war hero? They said it... yes they did... the fake news outlets just said Sleepy Joe was a war hero. And chopping wood like Ronald Reagan, the great President Reagan, too! Sleepy Joe is like President Reagan now!
Fake news, that's all it is... they can't help themselves...

This really makes News Busters look bad. I’m sure Biden didn’t live off in a mountain chopping wood either. Did they fact-check that?
To: governsleastgovernsbest
I think the retired war hero chopping wood was a metaphorical image rather than literal. Certainly a bad one but not presented as a fact.

The leftist media thought it was hilarious when asserting Trump encouraged Covid sufferers to inject bleach.
Sorry, Biden deserves every bit of derision we can dish out and we should unashamedly dish it out.

What other lies does Associate Professor Jason Johnson spew to his university students?

“The only time Biden has been around a hero is when he ordered a salami sandwich in some Scranton deli.” Yep, and the only battles he’s fought were against his own perverse urges. And he regularly lost. Not that he put up much of a fight, preferring to surrender.

To: newzjunkey
I don’t think he meant that literally a war hero, he was drawing a narrative comparison to fictional heroes who retire but come off the sidelines and back into the fray for one last fight.I agree. It is just a poorly-stated analogy.

Well, he’s been fighting the war on evil since 1972. Or was it ‘74.....🤡😵💫 You missed his later speech where he claimed (no joke) that he started in the Senate 720 years ago! [Joe Biden: "From the time I got to the Senate 720 years ago ... I'm serious, think about it!"] From the donkey's own mouth, Joe is an ass!

The media is skilled at creating a false image of important people, and of promoting that image so much that millions of people believe it. *
It transformed obammy into a committed Christian who liked Whites and Blacks equally well, and who would work for the good of the country.
It transformed Trump into a mean racist who was working for and with the Russians.
* Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth. - Goebbels.

Seems he was using an analogy — still a ridiculous one though...

Any time a leftist utters the word Charlottesville, they lose the argument and their credibility.

Didn’t Biden charge up San Juan Hill with Teddy Roosevelt or was it Gettysburg?
