“Screaming, hysterical women”

Here’s one for the mentally challenged portion of our fan base — and you all know who you are:

So there aren’t a lot of anti-war military types for the media to turn into this month’s “It Girl.” (If conservatives ran the media, there would be a constant stream of government employees admitting to sloth and incompetence, welfare recipients admitting to being welfare cheats and public schoolteachers who support school vouchers.) Sometimes liberals get desperate and have to concoct Tawana Brawley veterans.
In addition to famous fake soldiers promoted by the anti-war crowd, like Jesse MacBeth and “Winter Soldier” Al Hubbard, even liberals with actual military experience are constantly being caught in the middle of some liberal hoax.
Al Gore endlessly bragged to the media about his service in Vietnam. “I took my turn regularly on the perimeter in these little firebases out in the boonies. Something would move, we’d fire first and ask questions later,” he told Vanity Fair. And then we found out Gore had a personal bodyguard in Vietnam, the most dangerous weapon he carried was a typewriter, and he left after three months. Although to his credit, Gore did not put in for a Purple Heart for the carpal tunnel syndrome he got from all that typing.
Speaking of which, John Kerry claimed to be a valiant, Purple Heart-deserving Vietnam veteran, who spent Christmas 1968 in Cambodia — until he ran for president and more than 280 Swift Boat Veterans called him a liar. We’ve been waiting more than 20 months for Kerry to make good on his “Meet the Press” pledge to sign form 180, which would allow the military to release his records.
Then there was Bill Burkett, who gave CBS the phony National Guard documents; Scott Thomas Beauchamp, The New Republic’s fantasist anti-war “Baghdad Diarist”; and Max Cleland, whose injuries were repeatedly and falsely described as a result of enemy fire.
Liberals will even turn a war hero like Pat Tillman into an anti-war cause celebre posthumously — so he can’t disagree. Tillman died in a friendly fire incident that occurred — unlike Max Cleland’s accident — during actual combat with the enemy.
Because they are screaming, hysterical women, liberals treat friendly fire like a drunk driving accident. But friendly fire has been a part of war from time immemorial.

Heh heh heh. “Screaming, hysterical women.” I love that.
(And, BTW, thanks for listening!)

  1. And just like it was portrayed in the recent PBS The War docu, our bombers in WWII without all the technology they had today. Heck they relied on vision not GPS. Sadly bombed many of our allied troops by accident.
    War is Hell. It’s not a picnic.
