Even the freaks can't ignore 10 to 11 million hits a day on Drudge, and Drudge is giving it space. Just another demonstration of moveon's ineptitude, they can't even create a credible lie.

Maybe because it is not the truth.

ROFL!

Wow, the Einstein's they have over there are something else. I suppose one troop is just like any other huh?

I'm curious how they can claim to support the troops, when they can't even identify our own.

The captain was quoted as calling the MoveOn.org TV ad "completely offensive" and "a Bush-bashing ad" that "shows turkey and crying wives and blames Bush for it all."

As "the idiots from MoveOn.org ... pretend to argue on my behalf, they show a group of soldiers standing around a table in the Middle East," the captain reportedly wrote and added that the individuals in the photo were "actually British soldiers.

Move-On supports the "troops" - yeah right. And they don't even know what they look like. Move-On got caught in another lie - and they're ticking off everyone. Are they working for us?

Brit Hume just covered this on Fox News.

He showed the original photo and the doctored photo and then just laughed.

I was issued Bermuda shorts in Air Force Basic Training back in 1960. I don't think any of the services issue Bermuda Shorts any more. The Class A Uniform was a pith helmet, bush jacket, Bermuda shorts (weather permitting), knee-high khaki socks and black low quarters.

The liberal political group MoveOn.org has yanked a video ad from its website after being criticized for using images of British soldiers to represent Americans in Iraq.

The great irony: the MoveOn.org idiots always bleat that they "support our troops," but they can't even correctly identify them.

Naturally, these Leftist jackwits will find some way to blame someone else for their screw-up...and they'll happily carry on as they always have.

And those idiots wonder why they're not in power. Ha!

Because they are doing it to cover up the fact that the "American troops" they're showing are not Americans.

Maybe you don't have a problem with dishonesty. Maybe you should re-examine that stance.
