DNC supports vets...but from which country? (Show Canadian troops on DNC site)
Michelle Malkin ^ | 10-07-06 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 10/07/2006 6:21:27 PM PDT by jrooney

A military guy e-mails a weekend website blooper:

Thought you might be interested in posting this. The DNC website has a page called Veterans and Military Families where they purpo[r]t to care about the welfare of US troops. Unfortunately they couldn't even find a picture of a US soldier to post on the page. The picture in the Get Involved frame is not a US Army uniform. The soldiers in the background are not in a US uniform either.

My military correspondent says the uniform in the DNC photo...is Canadian. Is he right?

I just emailed it to Drudge. The more people that email him about it, maybe he will post it.

This was on Malkin's site, but I was waiting for a final decision from the experts.

It wouldn't surprise me if it was wrong.

However, I expect the DUmmies to take their Canadian pictures down soon.

This site is fake.

And what Military did you serve in and for how long, which would make you an "authority?"

Oh, yeah, probably Jean Le Kerrie's!!!

Begone, idiot!!!!

I looked at the page. It's ok, except my browser showed an overlay in the script code. Might just be because I turn off a lot of popup stuff. Anyway, glad someone sent it to Drudge.

Thanks for pointing out the insignia on the epaulettes. Believe the first man is a big dog - the crossed swords under the crown is an LtGl's rank insignia, IIRC.

There's a maple leaf there too . . . dead giveaway I would say. As is the word "Canada" on the shoulder flash of the second man.
