Fake but inaccurate, always and forever

May 23rd, 2006

It takes courage to speak up, even if you are lying!” A perfect signpost for the ethical sewer into which present-day antiwar “liberals” have hurled themselves and are now happily splashing about, eyes tightly closed and moral compass whirling like the proverbial dervish. Can you say, “Culture of Falsehood”? I knew you could.

And naturally, it’s all Bush’s fault.

Update! Anybody besides me beginning to wonder why the only “war heroes” the Left ever seems able to scare up are either traitors, war criminals, partisan yo-yos whose blind, unreasoning pacifism have led them to despise and irrationally attack the very military they once were honorably part of, or just plain phonies?

    Mike,

    The answer to your question is that the vast majority of real veterans, even if they don't support the current war and/or the president, would rather be skinned alive than associate themselves with the kind of credulous morons, frothing Bush-haters and trust-fund "socialists" who make up the core of the anti-war movement.

    Take, for example, James Webb, Vietnam vet and war opponent and former SecNav under Reagan. Webb is probably best known for his excellent Vietnam novel "Fields of Fire." In that book, even the amputee anti-war veteran is sickened by the moronic and idealogically rigid cretins who called the shots in the anti-war movement, and ends up denouncing them on stage (for which his car is later vandalized.) I notice that while Webb has been strong in his criticism of how the war is being conducted, he nevertheless has kept his distance from the barking moonbats of the Cindy Sheehan ilk.

    I think too, Martin, that just about any real veteran (as opposed to the Lefty variety), after having done his time in the service defending it, knows more about freedom than those trust-fund socialists you speak of, appreciates it more deeply, and therefore tends to find viscerally repellent the Left's nanny-statist approach to...well, damned near everything.

    At least, that's the way it's been with the ones I've known over the years, anyway.

    I am a secret operative High Flying Fallootin Platoon Mega-Warrior with 56 Stars on my General's Uniform and 19 Purple Hearts to go with 16 Medals of Honor and I don't support the war effort...

    Now.... Can I have Michael Moore put me in a documentary now?

    Jeff: probably.

    The other thing that is telling is the fact that none of these "war criminals" who come forward with tales of atrocities have the integrity to ask that they, themselves, be prosecuted for the supposed "crimes" they committed. If they were truly committed to seeing these so-called "atrocities" exposed they would demand to be prosecuted, so as to put their superiors on trial for ordering said atrocities (even though every private learns in about the 3rd week of basic training/boot camp that they can, personally, be prosecuted for following an illegal order.)

    C'mon, killers, if you were really guilty of committing such heinous acts, why not just turn yourselves in to the nearest military authority and demand to be court-martialed?

    Schultzie nailed it sometime back: Only the most worthless military vets become Democrats, the rest are Independent or Republican, always but always.

    Is this John Murtha's source?
