U.S Soldier, Former Captive, Speaks Out Against Limbaugh

Patriots Hopeful Of Next Election Year ^ | 10-4-2007 | Pfc. John Adams

[r-q-tek86]

While serving in Iraq, I was captured and tortured by an insurgent group. As they say, I have "been there, done that". After my time in the service and after seeing the true nature of this occupation, I now am speaking out against this war and this administration.

Rush Limbaugh calls me and my comrades that have chosen to take this stand "phoney soldiers".

I urge Rep. John Murtha, Sen. Harry Reid and all true partiots in the Congress of the United States to pass legislation removing Mr. Limbaugh from the public airwaves... by force if necessary.

Glad to see Pfc. Adams is back home and safe...

I appreciate this man’s service, and his sacrifice. I respect it.

But he’s simply lying about what Limbaugh said, and as such I have absolutely no use for him at all.

[Enduring Freedom]

A former soldier who is a present idiot.

[Obadiah]

Before everyone gets all worked up, clink on the link. It’s satire.

[Fido969]

Would someone post this to DU please?

[r-q-tek86]

A real doll of a soldier if you ask me...

[Tijeras_Slim]

LOL! I remember this guy!

[Deo et Patria]

Classic. I got a good laugh out of this one. Is Harry Reid holding the weapon off camera?

[TheBigB]

Look a little deeper into this one, fellas. ;o)

[silver charm]

has anyone noticed that the acronm (sp?) for this group is P.H.O.N.Y. ?

So much for the First Amendment. Shouldn't he be celebrating Rush's diversity?

[bereanway]

It’s GI Joe

[magslinger]

Yeah, from his words, you’d think his head was made of plastic or something.

[jwalsh07]

Serving in the Armed Forces is not an entitlement to lie or to be ignorant of the facts. As a former Army guy I applaud his service and am apalled at his ignorance.

[Robe]

This guy is truly a phoney soldier

[Malone LaVeigh]

You had me there for a few seconds. It took a while for the picture to load, during which time the memory of this "incident" surfaced. Well done!
Someone should forward this to Rush.

[r-q-tek86]

Thank you for catching that.

[The_Reader_David]

I think your graphic missed

War is peace.

Freedom is slavery.

Ignorance is strength.

[Dionysiusdecordealcis]

Uh, it’s a fake—click on the Snopes report; this is satire.

[r-q-tek86]

Hey B... good to see you.

[mnehring]

You had me there for a second.. The image took way to long to load.. :->

[avacado]

"I urge Rep. John Murtha, ..."

Dude! Murtha thinks you are a cold blooded murderer!

[SolidWood]

LOL. You might check the article again. LOL... giggle.

[jwalsh07]

Got me!

[ChiMark]

This is why I love the F.R.

Can’t get this news anywhere but here.

[AnnGora]

I remember the thread posted on FR about this was absolutley hilarious! Can anyone find it?

[Dionysiusdecordealcis]

Hey, I think we blew it. It should have been posted as the gospel truth without the Snopes link and then, ten-to-one, the DUmmies and Dingy H. and Dickie Durbin might have fallen for it as a “smoking gun” to prove Limbaugh wrong; then we could have sprung the trap.

Oh well, perhaps next time.

[AnnGora]

I meant the original thread...it was a definite keeper. (I forgot to keep it, though...)

[colorado tanker]

LOL! My antenna went off at the story of having been captured by the insurgents. The group of folks captured who made it out alive is pretty small.

Should be posted to DU, though. Betcha they'd believe it.

[Right Cal Gal]

Hey, I was firing off an angry retort and then I clicked on the link.

My backspace and delete keys got quite the *ahem* workout.

[Safetgiver]

Pssst. Pfc. Adams didn’t say it. He can’t talk.

[Names Ash Housewares]

“Rush Limbaugh calls me and my comrades that have chosen to take this stand “phoney soldiers”.”

No sir, he did not. You are mistaken and have been lied to.

[BluH2o]

Can’t wait for this guy to show up on the Chris Matthews show ... he probably has his staff desperately trying to get in touch him at this moment.

[Right Cal Gal]

Quick - someone re-do it and send it to Dingey Harry and wait....

Who’s in charge of the popcorn for this one!

[Names Ash Housewares]

Oh crap, its the doll!

DOH!

Ignore above post.

stupid stupid

[Badeye]

Thanks, just realized it.

[Badeye]

Not til you mentioned it....(chuckle)

[Badeye]

So I’ve since realized....(chuckle)

[Badeye]

Yep.

[Sooth2222]

The group of folks captured who made it out alive is pretty small.

In terms of US military I believe the number is actually zero. You can't get smaller than that.

[italianquaker]

Benedict Arnold was once honored for his service to the USA also

[r-q-tek86]

The group of folks captured who made it out alive is pretty small

Yep... and this one is about 12"

[donnab]

yeah I would say thats small...LOL

[Badeye]

Yep.

So was George Tenet.

[Mygirlsmom]

I’m not ashamed to admit that I just cackled!

[TheBattman]

Rush Limbaugh calls me and my comrades that have chosen to take this stand "phoney soldiers".

Just shows that active military service doesn't take the stupid and irresponsible out of the man. I am glad he survived, but I wish he would think for himself. Limbaugh did not call ALL soldiers who don't agree with the war "fake", just those who have fabricated service. (At least that is how I took it having heard it several times IN context.)

But it seems that those on the left have a bad habit of turning off their brain. I guess that is a prerequisite to being a leftist - you cannot think for yourself.

In this case, this soldier does not agree with the war - that is fine, and his right (that he fought for himself!). But why does he have to then abuse that freedom of speech to demonstrate that he is in the back pocket of the left and not thinking for himself?

Text without Context, is nothing but a Pretext. This soldier (and all the others blasting Limbaugh are proving this very idea!

[r-q-tek86]

Glad to help

[Soul Seeker]

I remember that!!!

I bet if you sent this to a news organization some of them would bite and even air it. After all, they did so once when the terrorists sent this out. LOL

[Williams]

You were less stupid than Harry Reid and Hilary Clinton, you had less time to receive all the facts, also you lacked a professional staff to analyze this post.

Yet you were able to say "oops, sorry" within a few minutes. Those left wing scum have all the facts, and know they are lying. They will never apologize because their's are not honest mistakes.
