"I'll take one grunt in Iraq to a hundred Belzers any day"

At the least with the one grunt you'd have one of something, as opposed to a lot of nothing.

Richard Belzer : can't act & a pitiful comedian... I'm suppose to value his opinions?

In a condescending way, Belzer claimed he was much more informed than any US soldier because they don't read "twenty newspapers a day" like he apparently claims to do.

That's like saying "What does a porn star know about sex? I may be a virgin, but I've read several books on the subject."

Quit watching his tv cop show years ago. This moron is a buffoon of the first order.

Let him tell a member of the Deuce 4 or a Marine who took fallujah that they don't have a clue and are being used as pawns.

"You think everyone over there is a college graduate? They're 19 and 20-year-old kids who couldn't get a job"




This jerk-ass thinks it's still 1968. A great many of the soldiers sailors and Marines fighting this war ARE college educated. Besides that since when did a college education denote intelligence anyway? As far as not being able to get a job, our employment rates in this country are about 96%. Illegal aliens that I bet you this douche Belzer supports wholeheartedly are taking up lots of jobs. Maybe he has a point about 19 and 20 year old kids not finding jobs. The jobs they used to get are now filled by Paco. But even at that, every military in the world has a few guys that just couldn't find work elsewhere.

"Useful idiot. Self-hating, Marxist Jew."

I can't imagine Belzer being at all kosher.

He's a marxist JINO.

"The actions of those troops, whom he so cavalierly disparages, in defending this man's liberty to speak as he does with their own blood, speaks more to who is truly "educated" than anything this lame brain could ever say."

Yep. It's easy fro the ingrates to pop off from the safety of the freedom that others provide for them.

They'll be the biggest whiners if their freedom is ever taken away, too.

Richard Belzer 's Political Statements
Richard Belzer's highest level of education is unknown. Because of this education, Richard Belzer felt qualified to make the following statements about politics:

Belzer on the Merits of the War on Terror
"He's [John Kerry] running against the worst President in the history of the United States! [audience applause] And that's not hyperbole. That's not hyperbole. The environment, the demonization of gays, the repression of black voters, the favoritism of Halliburton, this unending war....We can't consume everybody's life with this fear when we've been attacked twice in twenty years."

Joke:

One of Saddam's aides comes running to his office a few weeks before the war.

Saddam's says, "Calm down, what is it?"

The aide says, "Saddam! I have good news and bad news!"

"Well, what's the good news?"

The aids answers, "Only 5% of American teenagers can find Iraq on a map!"

Saddam laughs and laughs, "Those stupid Americans! Tell me, what's the bad news?"

"They're all Marines."

Maher's show is the perfect roost for Belzer.

They are peas-in-a-pod. Both arrogant, jaded blow-hards who know a fraction of what they think they know and do far more talking than thinking or listening.

He's paid to be delusional. It's how he makes his living.

Alot of those kids that are fighting this war are extremley smart, and brave young men and women. They put their lives on the line every day, so that the leftist can say not so kind things.

Not so. We're just doing the jobs that liberal Americans don't want.

You know, like killing terrorists. ;-)
