Hardly rises to the level of”stand up Chuck!”
I’m sure the swipe was inadvertent, but it was a dumb thing to say. It gives her a chance to play the victim card.
This actually pretty interesting.
Mark Kirk had a stroke and he has some sort of miltary record.
Rep. Joe Walsh (R) the “deadbeat dad” was the only one who had the balls to at least trash Tammy Duckworth & her Dem leadership ring kissing.
Walsh wasn’t a deadbeat dad but it’s funny that the people that most push back against the establishment have a lot of flaws personally.
It was a really stupid Tweet, regardless of her political affiliation.
Liberals have so destroyed the English language with political correctness that words no longer have meaning.
It’s not like they Tweeted “Stand up Tammy...Oh God luv ya”
That is a bad tweet. From the Wendy Davis gutter it seems. Remember when she tweeted how people should STAND with her because Abbot didn’t STAND for anything...Abbot being in a wheelchair and all.
It boggles my mind the operatives get paid big bucks to act so stupidly.
If I was Tammy I’d be thrilled that people were so challenged by me that they forgot my condition and said such a thing. I would celebrate.
Absolutely stupid, tasteless, inept, and cruel tweet. Par for the course for today’s corrupt GOPe-led Republican Party.
GOPe Mark Kirk has absolutely got to go. At least Tammy Duckworth will be strong on veterans’ issues.
Stand up Chuck!
She needs to grow up. Its a common saying. But being a victim is so cool I guess.
I will also say this about Mark Kirk- who I voted for today in the primary. He may be a moderate or liberal Republican..but at least he minds his own business and is not making the media rounds lecturing the Republican Party that it needs to change its platform.
What is the difference between a ‘tweet’ and a fart?
This is bullshit. If they sang “stand up for Jesus” in her church would she get all offended and roll out? I’m sick of these hypersensitive PC types.
As usual the DC political class is as clumsy as they can be
She is very thin-skinned about metaphors. The only solution I know to being thin-skinned is to grow a couple.
NRSC paid for the racist smear ads against Chris McDaniel in MS back when Cruz was running it.
However, that does not give her a pass on anything.
The information in this article is a bit thin. But there seem to be indications that Duckworth has been remiss in some areas of Veterans Affairs as well as those directly pertinent to the military. In these she should held to the highest standards expected of a veteran, without apologies, or "pity poor me" excuses of any kind.
Given that Tammy Duckworth is a Democrat. Given that the Democrats are ignoring our veterans because the VA is incompetent.
How many veterans are still waiting for medical attention? How many veterans have died before they could see a doctor?
Or would the Democrats rather continue their name calling instead of doing their jobs? What has Tammy done recently for our veterans?
Should she not instead explore in what way she is not supporting our veterans, instead of pretending that she was insulted? What is wrong with constructive criticism?
