Liberal Blogger Admits: We Claimed to Support "The Good War" in Afghanistan as Political Strategy to Prove Our "Macho" Credentials; We Never Meant It
Yes, so I imagined. While Glenn Greenwald, for example, was accusing those on the right of being "chickenhawks" for not serving in Iraq, he was never quite able to explain why he wasn't accumulating Congressional Medals of Honor and Taliban tooth-necklaces in the war he supposedly supported, Afghanistan.
The liberal blog Hullaballoo admits what has been obvious all along.
And no, this isn't just about some seedy, nasty liberal bloggers.
It's about our lying POS POTUS, too.

“Liberal” and “macho” is an oxymoron.
LOL! It certainly is.
OMG!!! They actually found a Liberal who is honest about their own dishonesty??????
How long did they have to look for this individual???
Nothing like playing politics with the lives of out fighting men and women, eh, libs?
“Liberal Blogger Admits: We Claimed to Support “The Good War”
in Afghanistan as Political Strategy”
“It was the only war we had.”
—basic contention of some Clinton Admin. staffers in justifying the
US involvement in The Balkans.
In other words, Bill Clinton needed to “get us in the game” in a war
somewhere, anywhere, for any reason, to get him some manly street cred
with the American electorate.

Meanwhile, better Americans than you could ever hope to be in your sick, jaded opportunistic world view, died defending this country.
Is it any wonder I have had absolutely no desire to hear the liberal perspective, and thus have no interest in the “fair and balanced” presentation of the news.
They also claimed to support medicare for Granny as a political strategy - they really wanted to take control of her care so they could kill her to save money. Liberals are not just dishonest, they’re sick.
I think anyone who had been paying attention for the past several decades knew they were lying through their nasty, crooked teeth, and that their claim to even one iota of macho cred was a huge joke. And I agree: the news here is that one of them actually admitted it.
Give Billy Boy credit, he kept our boys out of Ireland
liberals/marxists have no core principles, so everything they do is for political expediency.
thats no surprise.
Uh, gee.......we never figured that out........
its sorta scary people coming out and claiming things they would have never thought of saying before out in the open.Apparently now its your time to be proud to be against America’s best interest.
Obama Gaffes on Iraq and Afghanistan (ABC News 5/13/08 David Wright)
Stalinists lie. Always.
And they are brazen about it.

Those of us who were around for the 70’s recall it was in vogue back then too. Take heart, because obviously, the worm can turn
Admitting something that everyone already knows is so not cool.
At least this clown could have said he was “in denial” about
rooting for the Taliban in America’s War on Terror.
Well, I guess it's more politically expedient than telling another lie about the first lie...they'd have to actually do something if they did that!
They're just using this as an opportunity to cover up their betrayal and hope we move on before they get added to the "will be treated roughly" list.
An example of "liberal macho": CNN's Andersen Cooper

CNN's Anderson Cooper appears to have a
strange fondness for 'manholes'.
