CBS is trying to defame the military once again. The fact that he was in the military has nothing to do with what he did, Nothing!
I read here on FR that Homeland Security has been classifying returning vets as potential terrorist threats.
Exaggerating the significance of his long ago (dishonorable) service is part of the continuing political effort to marginalize all vets by attempting to characterize them as extremists.
Also, military benefits are under attack, and taking every opportunity to paint vets in a bad light helps to reduce the public sympathy level regarding the benefit:service bait and switch that Obama and the democrats are trying to engineer.
