Remember, our "hawkish, decorated combat veterans" are hallowed resources, and their opinions are irrefutable.

Unless said hawkish, decorated combat veterans are criticizing a Dem politician. Then they're radicals who must be silenced.

I read the headline and I am too mad to talk right now.
Will ask husband for money for Irey.

Is he going to whine and say his patriotism was questioned by those Republicans?

[Coop]

It's been over three months -- so what?

[Coop]

Thanks for channeling your anger into something constructive.

You can absolutely count on it.

BTTT

I was watching Fox News today (I hate it when I forget the news guys' names) and he was going to do a segment where someone was accused of "swiftboating Murtha." I laughed out loud. I guess "swiftboating" someone means that you stand up and tell someone they are lying their butts off and don't have the leadership skills that they want everyone to think they have by telling the truth as it is and not letting their lies, innuendo and half-truths pass as Truth. At least that's what it means to me! So by all means, if there's a "leader" who ain't fit, swiftboat 'em. I'd think that's quite a compliment!!

Thanks GD!

And the purpose of this long post is ...?

Perhaps to show that Ann Coulter is right about Dems using Messengers who can't be disputed because of some life tragedy? In this case a Senator elected only because he lost limbs in Vietnam rather than his positions on issues.

Exactly.

His injuries and rehab had to be horrible, but the truth is he was a victim of carelessness (like any industrial accident) rather than combat. Yet the Democrats (literally) roll him out as if he is a combat hero for every election.

I signed and sent an invitation to my list for them to sign and forward the invite to their lists too.

I'm proud to be a member of these radical forces.

So am I!

Bump

[CDB]

That's one of the ugliest pigs I've ever seen.

Which one?

[Coop]

Great! Are you coming to the 1 Oct rally?

[Coop]

Heard anything from today's "Support the Troops" Rolling Thunder rally? For those not aware, Diana Irey appeared and spoke there, and Boot Murtha had a display set up (I think).

[Broker]

Our former Georgia Senator had an "industrial accident"; Army talk is "FRAGGED". My sources say he was less than courageous on the DMV and got airlifted out, thinking his platoon men all dead. They weren't. Nuff said. Let smarter people than me put the puzzle together.

Bottom line, Max Cleland and Murtha served. God knows how they live with their guilt.

[Coop]

Back up your claim. Otherwise, save it for the gossip corner. This thread is about Jack Murtha's despicable behavior, and veterans rallying for or against it.

"swift-boating "

Swiftboating: - Exposing the lies, deceit and fraud of self-glorifying public officials or candidates for public office who exaggerate their military service by lying about their feats of heroism and combat wounds. (from Boothmurtha.com)

Yeah, that's it to a T.
