When the opportunistic lefties begin supporting the troops in greater numbers and frequency as we are seeing we just know we are winning the WOT and that all will be well.

During visits to Walter Reed, Trudeau said, he's been "astounded" by the wounded troops' lack of bitterness or self-pity

Welcome to the real world, Garry.

[ferri]

i would still like to whack Trudeau over the head with his book.
*siiiiiiiiiiigh* but you are right, it IS good news. maybe he will actually talk to people that have been there and learn something.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Trudeau looks like a Major Ahole.

[bmwcyle]

Liberals see the world through their selfish eyes.

[BMC1]

I would like to see a cartoon of Reid, Schumer, Kennedy, Palosi kerry, and Durbin all wearing a dog collar and a leash extended in the hands of each of these left wing groups.

They are being controlled by left wingers. When the left says jump, they jump.

Or it could also be puppets with the left as the puppet masters.

Larsen > Trudeau.

[isthisnickcool]

Trudeau has money and fame but he also has something that more than offsets that. Poor guy.

[Billthedrill]

Well, it's a challenge I often throw at lefties - how many troopers do you actually know? Meet a few and then we'll talk about "cannon fodder."

And I've said it before here - meet these guys and you can't walk away unimpressed unless you're a complete moron. They are the real face the United States shows to the people we've freed. Michael Moore is the face we show to France.

"When the opportunistic lefties begin supporting the troops in greater numbers and frequency as we are seeing we just know we are winning the WOT and that all will be well."

Well said. Would you add me to your ping list, please? I love the articles you find. Thanks! :)

[Gator101]

What are you doing Trudeau! You are going to lose your liberal credentials!

Don't you know that you are supposed to find that one bitter vet, even if you have to talk to 100 vets to find him, and present his views as if they represent everyone else's? Stick to the plan man!

(sarcasm off)

I think Trudeau's strip is about as funny as a rock. I don't think this is any indication of us "winning" anything.

What it is is a true rarity; a lib who puts his money where his mouth is.

Can't stand his stupid strip, but he's probably visited more injured troops than most people on FR, including me.

"It takes your breath away," Trudeau said.

It is called Courage, Strength and Love of Country you small minded, useless, bitter little man.

[edgrimly78]

Leftie or not, you gotta admit the guy is funny.


--I feel the same way. I have read that comic strip everyday for a while now. Dispite a strong liberal bias and a lot of left-leaning tendancies, it is a funny cartoon.

[aShepard]

How could that envy of my younger years, Jane Paulie, wind up marrying such a scumbag!

[Onelifetogive]

So many express hope of getting better so they can return to their units, even when that likelihood seems impossible. "It takes your breath away," Trudeau said.

It's called character, loyalty, and honor, Garry. It's unlikely that you would have encountered those traits in your normal social circles...

[SandRat]

Wait until he learns how many of them are battling to get a new high-tech prosthetic limb to return to full active service just to go back to Iraq.

[aShepard]

....."Trudeau said he decided to take B.D., a former football star, and have him receive a life-altering injury because he wanted to dramatize the kind of sacrifices troops are making in a very direct way."....

He expanded on that theme, by stating "Everything that Bush stands for is evil and wrong, and I saw the empathy toward Tillman, so I decided to use his death to promote my strip, so I could continue to bash Bush and his toadies"
