You Back the Attack, We'll Bomb Who We Want - Book Review, by Micah Ian Wright, et al
From Publishers Weekly
Former Army Ranger turned antiwar comic book artist Wright (a lie now exposed!) had what he calls a moment of clarity after participating in the U.S.'s 1989 invasion of Panama. Feeling that media coverage was blatantly pro-war, but that the post-invasion results for Panama were far from positive, he offers this as a (belated) warning against war on Iraq. Reworking American propaganda posters from WWI and WWII, Wright reveals his satiric take on current events: one poster reads, "Millions of troops are on the move...All To Protect Your Oil Supply! Is your SUV really worth their lives?" In another, a girl sitting in her father's lap asks, "Daddy, why don't YOU or any of your friends from ENRON have to go to war?" And many are messages from the Orwellian-sounding "Ministry of Homeland Security": The Statue of Liberty points to the onlooker and commands, "You! Stop Asking Questions! You're Either With U.S. or You're With The TERRORISTS!" The antiwar contingent will read these and weep, rather than laugh. 40 pages of color illus. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.
Book Description
After four years in the military (LIE!), Micah Wright took a radical career turn - to writing children's animation. In Back the Attack! this Emmy-nominated author combines these different roles, with a twist. This volatile collection of political posters reworks classic American World War I and II propaganda into timely commentaries on war, peace, and patriotism in the post-9/11 era. These 40 one-sided posters skewer the war mentality, the Bush White House, Homeland Security, the War on Terror, John Ashcroft, the 2000 Presidential election, the military-industrial complex, and much more. Famed posters of yesteryear such as "Loose Lips Sink Ships" and Uncle Sam's "I Want You" are reinvented with new messages of peace and protest. Back the Attack's images are ideal for enlarging and for use at political rallies and demonstrations. (And of course - are created by a shameless lefty liar!)
Trust me? Yea right
I would like to take up a collection, so that we may buy this piece of crap a plane ticket to Singapore, where he can be flogged by a professional.
BTTT
I love where he pretends to "come clean" because he couldn't live with the lie any longer, when it's obvious he came clean because he got found out!
Another Lefty heads to Hell.
I once read an article that looked at the lies of various people, all claiming to be the guy who laughs in the song "Wipe Out!" It always made me wonder what kind of sad lives these people live that they have to make up parts of their own identity. Like Gore inventing the Internet and being the model for "Love Story." Liars like these are pathetic, sad cases.
The poster above was also "modified" recently by the Protest Warriors, which you may have seen here on FR.
Typical lefty...why is it that they want the "glory and honor" but none of the pain and responsibility?
Here's most likely some of this self admitted imposter's friends:

In a story that broke late yesterday, the writer of the recently cancelled "Stormwatch: Team Achilles," Micah Ian Wright, revealed that he never served as a member of the Army Rangers, a claim he's made since he first came on the comics scene in March of 2002.. Apparently Wright had posted a revised bio to his Web site with the revelation on April 25th, reposting that information to his forum Saturday. The full text of his announcement follows:Hi.
My name is Micah Wright. I'm a former Army Ranger, and I've been lying to you. I've kept the secret for years now, but all lies grow and eventually get out of control. This is me coming clean about my Big Lie. What did I lie about? Oh, nothing much...
Except that I was never an Army Ranger. I never served a day in a Ranger Regiment. I never went to Ranger School. The closest I ever got was Army ROTC.
"Trust me? Yea right"
Big Deal. Anyone can take ROTC MSI & MSII level classes as electives. I took two of them and never officially entered the ROTC program. Actually, that's all he did, since you have to contract with the Army to make it to MSIII & MSIV level.
Seven Stories will also remove from future printings of the first book any accounts of his being a Ranger, including a story about parachuting into Panama during Operation Just Cause.
His publisher should re-evaluate their decision to ever reprint his propaganda. He "swore" that his political vision was shaped by his own personal experiences with war. That was a lie. A description of his fraud should be published in future editions (if any) and an explanation that these works should be lumped in with the same propaganda as that created under Stalin and Hitler to demoralize American soldiers.
PING, the competition goes down in flames.

Comic book writer confesses Army Ranger hoax. Sat. May 1, 2004
Thank you kindly for the ping. I battle a Greenie regularly in my neighborhood forum who was quite a fan of this creep but hasn't posted anything by him lately.... surprise LOL
The guy has the sedentary, pudgy look of a lifelong couch potato with not a hint of the athlete about him. That alone should have told anybody that he was never a Ranger.
This Brownshirt for Goebbels and Baghdad Bob thought that he could shield himself from criticism by appearing to be a veteran himself and "enlightened" from his experiences in war.
I just hope that the history books don't suppress the truth of where mainstream democrats stood March 2003-November 2004.
"Mr. Wright, apology accepted. Now I'd like to speak to you in private for about 30 seconds please."
Well, everyone knows it was Ms. Rodham.
